TILLING
The speed and depth of tilling Is regulated by the position
of the depth stake and wheel height.
The depth stake should always be below the wheels for
digging. It serves as a brake to slow the tiller’s forward
motion to enable the tines to penetrate the ground. Also,
the more the depth stake Is lowered Into the ground the
deeper the tines will dig,

pin. Change depth stake to desired position. Replace the
clevis pin and hairpin clip,
