3-5. Tiller Models 340 And 390.
3-5.1 The design of these tillers is new in concept
due to the fact that the transmissions are
designed and manufactured for replacement
(complete only) and are not as repairable com-
ponent. They are lubricated and sealed at the
factory. No further lubrication is required and
should, if not abused, provide years of problem
free service.
3-5.2 Tiller Model 340 is the same as Model 390
except that the 390 has a reverse control. It
has an additional belt, reverse assembly con-
trol cable and pulleys. See Figures 3-30, 3-31,
3-32 and Table 3-4.
CAUTION
This tiller has been engineered with a belt
made of special material (Kevlar Tensile) for
longer life and better performance. It should
not be replaced with an off-the-shelf belt. If belt
replacement is required, order belt or belts by
part number from your nearest authorized ser-
vice dealer. Forward Drive Belt—Part No. 754-
0428, Reverse Drive Belt (Model 390 only)—
Part No. 754-0429.
