  • Pull forward on tine clutch lever to disengage tines. A safety switch prevents engine from starting while tines are engaged.
  • Turn shut off to “ON” position.
  • Move choke lever on engine to CHOKE position. (A warm engine may not require choking.)
  • Move throttle control lever on engine to FAST position.
  • Grasp starter handle and pull rope out slowly until engine reaches start of compression cycle (rope will pull slightly harder at this point). Let the rope rewind slowly.
  • Keep a firm grip on starter handle and pull rope with a rapid, continuous, full arm stroke. Let rope rewind slowly. Do not let starter handle snap back against starter.
  • Repeat instructions in two preceding paragraphs until engine starts. After engine starts, move choke control gradually to RUN position.
  • Allow engine to warm up for a few minutes before engaging tines.

ATTACHING TILLER TO TRACTOR
(See Figure 6)

  • Rear wheel weights and tire chains can be used on tractor if additional traction is required for tilling. Place tiller on level ground and back tractor up to it.
  • Attach hitch bracket extension to floating hitch of tiller using a hitch pin and hair cotter pin.
  • Fasten hitch bracket extension to tractor drawbar with a 1/2-13 x 1-1/4″ hex bolt and 1/2″ nylock nut.

BREAKING IN YOUR TILLER
Break-in your belts, pulleys, and the control before you Start engine with tiller attached to tractor in transport position. Engage tine clutch lever to start tine rotation. Allow tines to rotate for five minutes.

  • Check tine operation and adjust if necessary. See TINE OPERATION CHECK in the SERVICE AND ADJUSTMENTS section of this manual.

TRANSPORTING YOUR TILLER

  • Pull forward on lift handle until it locks in the transport (up) position.
  • Disconnect spark plug wire.
  • Drain fuel tank.
  • Transport in upright position to prevent oil leakage.
  • Do not transport on roads or public thoroughfares

TO ADJUST DEPTH STAKE

  • The top depth stake hole selects a till depth of 1″ with each lower hole increasing till depth by 1″ to a maximum of 5″.
  • To change till depth, remove the hair cotter pin from the clevis pin which is connecting the depth stake to the stake support bracket.
  • Grasp the top of the depth stake, remove the clevis pin and reposition the depth stake. Insert clevis pin and hair cotter pin.

Removing the depth stake could result in loss of control of the towing vehicle and result in injury.
TILLING

  • Tilling should be done with the tiller engine full throttle. If tiller engine seems to be overloaded or stalls out, lower gauge wheels for shallower tilling.
  • Operate tiller engine at full throttle and operate tractor in slowest forward speed with tractor engine at idle speed or just above idle.
  • Soil conditions will determine how deep tiller can penetrate on the first pass. In extremely hard ground, several passes may be necessary to till to a depth of 6 inches. While in soft ground, tiller may penetrate to a depth of 6 inches in the first pass.

TILLING HINTS
IMPORTANT OPERATING HINTS
NOTE: The following are general guidelines for tilling, but may vary depending upon soil conditions.

  • In virgin soil, the tiller should be started in shallowest depth position and lowered one position at a time after each pass in each direction.
  • Extremely hard and dry soil will need to be cross tilled at a shallow depth first, then tilled in the direction of planting rows on the second pass at the final depth.
  • Till in a pattern similar to that shown in Figure 7. Make the first pass, skip a space equal to the width of the tiller and make the return pass, then till the skipped area. Tilling in this pattern will enable you to maintain better control. If the passes are made side-by-side, the tractor and tiller will pull toward the tilled (soft) side.
  • Check ground moisture. The ground is too wet if you can make it into a ball with your hand. Tilling soil when it is too wet will cause lumps which are difficult to work up.
  • In soil that was tilled the year before, select the tilling depth at which the tiller engine runs comfortable and does not stall or pull down. Lower depth for additional passes if great depth is desired.
  • Whenever working multiple passes, go perpendicular to the previous tilling direction.
  • In cases where the soil is too hard to get proper penetration or if tiling action causes tiller to hop or bounce, it will be necessary to purchase a set of tiller (wheel) weights.

CULTIVATING

  • A minimum of two (2) inches of soil penetration is required for cultivating.
  • Set depth stake so the tiller penetrates soil to a depth of 2 to 3 inches.
  • Run the tiller engine at full throttle except when cultivating small plants. A slower engine speed is necessary to prevent burying small plants. See Figure 8.

CLEANING

  • Clean engine as instructed in the engine manual.
  • Clean wheels, finish, etc. of all foreign matter.
  • Keep finished surfaces and wheels free of all gasoline, oil, etc.
  • Protect painted surfaces with automotive type wax.
  • Do not use a garden hose to clean your unit unless the muffler, air filter, and carburetor are covered to keep water out. Water in the engine will result in shorter engine life.

MUFFLER

Do not operate tiller without muffler. Do not tamper with exhaust system. Damaged mufflers or spark arresters could create a fire hazard.

  • Inspect periodically and replace if necessary. If your engine is equipped with a spark arrester screen assembly, remove every 50 hours for cleaning and inspection. Replace if damaged.

ENGINE MAINTENANCE

To avoid injury. Always stop engine and disconnect spark plug wire before cleaning, lubricating, or before performing any repairs or maintenance.

  • Always use STA-BIL® 360 Performance in every tank to prevent ethanol related fuel problems. STA-BIL® is the only approved fuel stabilizer for use in Agri-Fab equipment.
  • Check oil level before each use and every 8 hours.
  • Maintain oil at level shown in figure 11 below.
  • Service air cleaner every 25 hours under normal conditions. Clean every few hours under extremely dusty conditions. Poor engine performance and flooding usually indicates that the air cleaner should be serviced. Refer to separate engine manual to service the air cleaner.
  • Spark plug replacement is recommended every 100 hours or yearly. Check the engine manual for correct plug type and gap specifications.

Agri-Fab 45-03088 Multi Fit Clockwise Tow Behind Tiller - Figure

Fab 45-03088 Multi Fit Clockwise Tow Behind Tiller - Figure
11 IMPORTANT: Do not move or remove the belt guide.
If the position of the belt guide is accidentally altered, return it to the correct setting (6-1/2″ above the tine shield support plate).

  • Remove the screw from the top of the belt guard.
  • Remove the hex nut from the rear of the guard.
  • Remove the belt guard to allow access to drive belt.
  • Disengage tine clutch lever and remove belt.
  • Reverse above procedures for installation of new belt.

To avoid injury shut off (disengage) the Tine Clutch Lever, the Tiller Engine, and the Tractor Engine before making any repairs.
TINE CARE

  • For best results — Tine blades should be kept reasonably sharp. The tine blade can be sharpened on a grinding wheel. Do not attempt to sharpen tines while they are mounted to tiller.

SPARE TINE DRIVE BOLTS

  • The tiller drive components are protected from damage by (shearable) grade 5 hex bolts in the tine assemblies. The hex bolts drive the tines and hold them in the proper location. Should the tine assemblies strike or pick up a large hidden object or become jammed, the hex bolts will break and the drive components will not be damaged.
  • Two extra tine hex bolts and nuts are included with the tiller. They are located in the tiller stake support bracket on the rear of the tiller.
  • The tine hex bolts are designed to be loose fit. Do not attempt to use a bolt or pin that is larger or harder than the original grade 5 hex bolts.

STORAGE

Never store the tiller with gasoline in the tank inside a building where fumes may reach an open flame or spark. Allow the engine to cool before storing in any enclosure.
Never cover tiller while engine and exhaust areas are still warm.
Prepare your tiller for storage at the end of the season or if the unit will not be used for 30 days or more.
ENGINE

  • Follow the instructions in the SERVICE & STORAGE section of the Engine Manual.

TILLER

  • Clean entire tiller (See CLEANING in the MAINTENANCE section of the manual).
  • Inspect belts and replace if necessary (See belt replacement instructions in the SERVICE AND ADJUSTMENTS section of this manual.
  • Lubricate as instructed in the MAINTENANCE section of this manual.
  • Check that all nuts, bolts, and screws are securely fastened. Inspect moving parts for damage, breakage, and wear. Replace if necessary.
  • Touch up all rusted or chipped paint surfaces; sand lightly before painting.
  • Store tiller indoors and cover it to protect from dust and dirt.
  • Cover tiller with a suitable protective cover that does not retain moisture. Do not use plastic. Plastic allows condensation to form and will cause your unit to rust.
