Authorized service shall be sought if a problem exists. WHEEL GEAR CABLE ADJUSTMENT When the Wheel Gear Lever is in DISENGAGE, the wheels will roll freely (freewheel). The wheels should not roll freely when the lever is in ENGAGE. If the wheels roll freely when the Wheel Gear Lever is in ENGAGE, the wheel gear cable needs to be adjusted as described below. 1. With the engine shut off and the spark plug wire disconnected, put the Wheel Gear Lever in ENGAGE. 2. Loosen the top adjustment nut (A, Figure 5-5) on the wheel gear cable bracket that is located on the left side rear of the transmission. 3. Push the wheel gear cable (B) down and roll the tiller slightly forward or backward until the eccentric lever (C) engages (locks) the wheels. Hold the cable in that position and tighten the top (A) and bottom (D) adjustment nuts. 4. Move the Wheel Gear Lever to ENGAGE and DISENGAGE several times to check the adjustment. The wheels should not roll when the lever is in ENGAGE, but they should roll when the lever is in DISENGAGE. Readjust the cable as required. Figure 5-5: Wheel gear cable assembly. OFF SEASON STORAGE When the tiller won’t be used for extended periods, prepare it for storage as follows: 1. Clean the tiller and engine. 2. Do routine tiller lubrication and check for loose parts and hardware. 3. Protect the engine and perform recommended engine maintenance by following the engine storage instructions found in the separate Engine Owner’s Manual. NOTE: Be sure to protect the fuel lines, carburetor and fuel tank from gum deposits by removing fuel or by treating fuel with a fuel stabilizer (follow engine manufacturer’s recommendations). 4. On electric start units, follow “Battery Storage” instructions in this Section. 5. Store unit in a clean, dry area. 6. Never store the tiller with fuel in the fuel tank in an enclosed area where gas fumes could reach an open flame or spark, or where ignition sources are present (space heaters, hot water heaters, furnaces, etc.). 27 Section 5: Maintenance WARNING Before inspecting, cleaning or servicing the unit, shut off engine, wait for all parts to come to a complete stop, disconnect spark plug wire and move wire away from spark plug. Remove ignition key on elec- _ trie start models. Failure to follow these instructions can result in serious personal injury or I“!' property damage. BOLO TINES The bolo tines will wear with use and should be inspected at the beginning of each tilling season and after every 30 operating hours. Tines can be replaced individually or as a complete set. Never inspect or service the tines unless the engine is stopped, the spark plug wire is disconnected, and the ignition key is removed on electric start models. A. Tine Inspection: With use, the tines will become shorter, narrower and pointed (Figure 5-6). Badly worn tines will result in a loss of tilling depth and reduced effectiveness when chopping up and turning under organic matter. Use Figure 5-6 as a guide to when the tines should be replaced. Figure 5-6: Checking tines for wear. B. Removing a Single Tine: 1. With the engine shut off and the spark plug wire disconnected, remove the two bolts and nuts that attach a single tine to the tine holder (Figure 5-7). If needed, use penetrating oil to help free the nuts. 2. When installing a single tine, be sure to position it so that its cutting edge will enter the soil first as the tiller moves forward. Figure 5-7: Removing single tine (Econo-Horse tines shown). C. Removing a Tine Assembly: 1. With the engine shut off and the spark plug wire disconnected, remove the tine hood by removing the two attaching screws at the rear of the hood and the two attaching screws at the front of the hood. 2. If removing both tine assemblies, mark them “left” and “right” before removal. Remove the screw and locknut that secure the tine assembly to the tine shaft (Photo 5-8). If necessary, use a rubber mallet to tap the tine assembly outward off the shaft. 3. Before reinstalling the tine assembly, inspect the tine shaft for rust, rough spots or burrs and file or sand as needed. Apply a thin coat of grease to the shaft. 4. Install each tine assembly so that the cutting edge of the tines will enter the soil first when the tiller moves forward. Secure the tine assembly to the tine shaft using the screw and locknut previously removed. Tighten securely. 5. Replace the tine hood using the four screws previously removed. Tighten securely. Figure 5-8: Removing a tine assembly (Econo-Horse tines shown). 28 Section 5: Maintenance WARNING Before inspecting, cleaning or servicing the unit, shut off engine, wait for all parts to come to a f complete stop, disconnect spark plug wire and move wire away from spark plug. Remove ignition key on electric start models. Failure to follow these instructions can result in serious personal injury or property damage.
