TINE ROTATION SELECTION
As received, the tiller is set-up for forward rotation
which is best for cultivating and seed bed prepara-
tion. In this mode, the tines rotate in the same direc-
tion as the driving wheels. The direction of tine rota-
tion is easily changed to reverse rotation when
desired for breaking sod or new ground,
CHANGE TINE ROTATION with engine off as
follows: Remove the wing-nut and washer on the
front stud of the belt cover, pull the cover outward
over this stud then swing the cover rearward and out
of the way over the belt pulley. With the clutch con-
trol released, there is sufficient slack to slip the belt
off the putley for changing the arrangement as
shown in figure 8.
TO CHANGE FROM FORWARD TO REVERSE: TAKE
BELT OFF TOP OF BIG PULLEY, PULL TOWARD
YOU AND HOLD. LIFT BELT FROM BOTTOM AND
PUT IN TOP OF PULLEY.
TO CHANGE FROM REVERSE TO FORWARD: TAKE
BELT OFF BOTTOM OF BIG PULLEY. PULL
TOWARD YOU AND HOLD IN LEFT HAND. REMOVE
BELT FROM TOP AND PULL DOWN. PLACE BELT
(HELD BY LEFT HAND) UNDER LITTLE PULLEY
AND OVER BIG PLULLEY.
MAKE SURE BELT IS RUNNING TRUE UNDER LIT-
TLE PULLEY, AROUND BIG PULLEY, AND ABOVE
GUIDE PIN.
SWING BELT COVER FORWARD & INSTALL
WINGNUT.
SNAPPER two way tines are sharpened on both
edges and are self-adjusting to till in forward or
reverse rotation without switching the tines from
one side to the other. They pivot on slots in the tine
hub to enter the ground at proper angle to provide
maximum penetration.
