INSTALLING BOLO TINES
Each gang must be installed in the correct lo-
cation, shown in Photo 8/52, and must go on so
that the cutting edges of the tines go into the
soil first as the tiller moves forward.
Step 1. Take any 8010 gang marked with an "A"
(as shown in Photo 8/51). Usethis gang for po-
sition three. Make sure all bolts are as loose as
they can be without falling off. It's far easier to
install the gangs at the inside positions posi-
tions 2 & 3) before installing tine gangs at the
outside position (position 4), and later, at posi-
tion 1.
IMPORTANT
Please be certain that the three gangs marked
with an "A" are in positions 2, 3 and 4 and the
gang marked with a "8" is in position 1. Make
sure
that the cutting edges of the tines enter the
soil first, not the tips. Tines rotate in the same
direction as the wheels. Photo 8/55 shows a till-
er with the hood removed so that you can see
tines facing in the proper direction.
Step 2. Wrap the "A" gang of tines around posi-
tion 3 of the tine holder. Rotate the gang of
tines until the two inner (left hand) tines are
around one lug, and outer (right hand) tines are
around the other lug. The gang can only go on
the holder one way-as long as the tines are in-
stalled so they rotate in the correct direction so
the blade strikes the ground first. See Photos
8/55 and 8/56.
Step 3. Put a bolt through the two remaining
tine holes once you have them aligned, as
shown in Photo 8/57 . Add a locknut and tight-
en with two 9/16" wrenches.
Follow the same procedure to install the re-
maining two "A" gangs in positions four and
two, see Photo 8/58. Then install a
"8" gang in
position one-see Photos 8/59, 8/60 and 8/63.
Step 4. If you have trouble lining up the holes,
use a
screwdriver placed through the bolt holes
to pry the tines in the proper direction. See
(Photo 8/55) Tine rotation.
