HOW TO IDENTIFY YOUR DRIVE SHAFT
STYLE
Your tiller is equipped with either the single
piece welded drive shaft shown in Photo 8/31,
or with the assembled drive shaft shown in
Photo 8/33. Both style drive shafts are equal in
performance and dependability. You can easily
identify which style you have by comparing
your drive shaft with the photos.

of welded drive shaft(Photo 8/31) with
transmission cover removed and gear oil drain-
ed. If your drive shaft has aweld bead as shown,
or if the worm measures 2" in length, you have a
welded drive shaft.
Photo 8/32 shows that the
front worm (2 inches long) of the welded drive
shaft is between the
two welds. The shims and
two bearing cones shown in the photo must be
ordered separately when purchasing parts.

joint between the sleeve and worm as shown, or
if the worm measures 13fs" in length, then you

HERE'S HOW TO GO ABOUT SHIMMING
FROM THE REAR
You must remove the tiller hood and discon-
nect the depth regulator from the rear cap. To
do so, remove the two bolts on the front hood
mounting bracket (part #1077)-see Photo
8/40. Then, remove the screws fastening the
depth regulator to the end cap-see Photo 8/35.
