7. With a 3/4" wrench, loosen the
two swing-out bolts that connect
the power unit transmission to the
tine attachment and swing the bolts
outward. See Photo 4-41. Hint:
an extra-long wrench for leverage
is very helpful.
8. Use one hand on the handlebars
to tip the power unit forward about
one inch while pulling the tine at­
tachment backward. The guide pin
on the power unit will release from
the guide hole in the tine attach­
ment. See Photos 4-42 and 4-43.

tion instructions.

previous tine attachment removal
instructions.

on the power unit to their outward
position (slide the washers next to

to the tine attachment. Move the
Kickstand down (or support the
engine with a wood block).
4. Remove the dust cap (or protec­
tive wrapping) from the clutch
coupling on the tine attachment.
5. Carefully align the alignment
pin on the power unit with the
alignment hole in the tine attach­
ment and bring the two units to­
gether (see Photo 4-43).
