13 Operation Note: Determine the left and right sides of the machine from the normal operating position. Warning Rotating tines can cut hands, feet or other body parts. Keep away from the rotating tines while operating the tiller. Keep your hands, feet, and any other part of your body or clothing away from rotating parts. Before adjusting, cleaning, repairing and inspecting the tiller, lower the tiller and loader arms to the ground and turn off the engine. Remove the key. Operating the Power Take Off (PTO) The power take off (PTO) switch engages and disengages power to the electric clutch. The PTO light, in the Indicator Module, will be on when the ignition key is in run or the lights position and the power take off (PTO) is engaged. When this light is on, it is a reminder the starter will not crank and to turn the off PTO before getting off the tractor. Engaging the Power Take Off (PTO). Move the throttle to the fast position.. Pull the power take off (PTO) to the on position (Fig. 9). Disengaging the Power Take Off (PTO). Push the power take off (PTO) to the off position (Fig. 9). Using the Attachment Power Lift The attachment power lift (Fig. 0) is used to raise and lower attachments. Raising Attachments. Turn key to the on or run position (Fig. 0).. Push the lift switch in the up direction to raise the attachment lift (Fig. 0). This will lift and hold the attachment in the up, or raised position. Lowering Attachments. Turn key to the on or run position (Fig. 0).. Push the lift switch in the down direction to lower the attachment lift (Fig. 0). This will lower the attachment lift. Figure 0 m 65. Key. Lift switch up. Lift switch down m 654 Figure 9. PTO Off. PTO On

14 Operating the Attachment Lift Lever The attachment lift lever (Fig. ) is used to raise and lower various attachments. Raising an Attachment. Depress the brake pedal to stop the machine.. Pull the attachment lift lever rearward until the latch locks. In this position the lift will hold the attachment in the up, or raised position. Lowering an Attachment. Depress the brake pedal to stop the machine.. Pull the attachment lift lever rearward, to release the lift pressure, and push the button on top to release the latch. Move the lift lever forward to lower the attachment. Adjusting the Lift Chain Warning Rotating tines can cut hands, feet or other body parts. Keep away from the rotating tines while operating the tiller. Keep your hands, feet, and any other part of your body or clothing away from rotating parts. Before adjusting, cleaning, repairing and inspecting the tiller, lower the tiller and loader arms to the ground and turn off the engine. Remove the key. Changing the lift chain link at the clevis, affects maximum tilling depth and transport lift height. These links can be changed at the clevis (Fig. ).. For maximum tilling depth, but reduced transport lift height, lengthen the lift chain (Fig. ).. For greater lift height, shorten the length of the lift chain (Fig. ). This position will have reduced tilling depth. m 65 Figure. Lift lever. Button. Lift chain Figure. For variations of less than a link in range, disconnect chain from adjustable yoke on lift rod, loosen jam nut and rotate the yoke clockwise to increase lift height and tilling depth and counter clockwise to reduce lift height and increase tilling depth (Fig. ). 4

15 Tips for Tilling Clean the area of trash, branches and rocks before tilling to prevent equipment damage. Always begin tilling with the slowest ground speed possible. Increase speed if conditions permit. Always use full throttle (maximum engine speed) when tilling. Always engage the power take off (PTO) with tiller in the raised position. Till in long straight passes. Do not make turns while tiller is in the ground, as equipment damage may result. A small center area will not be tilled due to the gear case. Overlapping with a second pass will eliminate this condition. Avoid excessive tilling of the soil, as finely tilled soil will not absorb moisture easily and puddles of water or run-off may occur. When tilling hard packed, very dry or virgin soil, raise tiller so only the very top of the soil is penetrated. On succeeding passes the depth may be lowered. This reduces the tendency of the tiller to push the tractor. If this happens, disengage power take off (PTO) and reduce forward speed. 5

16 Maintenance Note: Determine the left and right sides of the machine from the normal operating position. Recommended Maintenance Schedule Maintenance Service Interval 5 Hours Fall service At storage service Maintenance Procedure Oil check level Grease bearings Oil check level Belt check for wear/cracks Oil check level Belt check for wear/cracks Chipped Surfaces paint Important Refer to your engine operator s manual for additional maintenance procedures. Caution If you leave the key in the ignition switch, someone could accidently start the engine and seriously injure you or other bystanders. Remove the key from the ignition and disconnect the wire from the spark plug(s) before you do any maintenance. Set the wire aside so that it does not accidentally contact the spark plug. Greasing and Lubrication Service Interval/Specification 4. If gear lube runs from the case when the plug is removed, the lube in the case is sufficient. Oil may be added as necessary. Check the gear lube level in the gear case after every 5 operating hours or once a year, whichever occurs first. Gear lube changes are not required. Gear lube type: SAE API service GL-4 or GL-5. Refill capacity: ounces. Checking Gear Lube. Park the machine on a level surface, disengage the power take off (PTO), set the parking brake, stop the engine and wait for all moving parts to stop. Remove the ignition key.. Clean the area around the lower pipe plug (Fig. ).. Remove the pipe plug carefully because the oil level may be above the level of the pipe plug. Figure Left side of tiller shown in operating position. Pipe plug (hidden) m 497 6

17 Greasing the Tiller Service Interval Specification Grease the jack shaft bearings after every 5 operating hours or once a year, whichever occurs first. Grease Type: General-purpose grease. Greasing the Bearings. Park the machine on a level surface, lower the attachment, disengage the power take off (PTO), set the parking brake, stop the engine and wait for all moving parts to stop. Remove the ignition key.. With a clean rag, clean the area around the grease fitting on the idler pulley pivot and on each flange bearing (Fig. 4). Figure 4. Apply grease to the fittings. 4. Wipe off excess grease. 7

18 Storage. Before long term storage wash the machine with mild detergent and water to remove dirt and grime from the entire machine.. Check the condition of the tiller.. Check gearcase lubrication level; refer to Greasing and Lubrication, page Check and tighten all bolts, nuts, and screws. Repair or replace any part that is damaged or defective. 5. Paint all scratched or bare metal surfaces. Paint is available from your Authorized Service Dealer. 6. Store the machine in a clean, dry garage or storage area. Cover the machine to protect it and keep it clean. 8
