SAFETY/OPERATION/MAINTENANCE
OPERATE SAFELY
KEEP BODY PARTS FROM UNDER TOW BAR
• Use this machine for intended purpose only.
Before disconnecting this machine from towing vehicle hitch:
• Speed should always be slow enough to maintain control.
Travel slowly over rough ground.
• Stop on level ground.
• Stop towing vehicle engine.
• Lock towing vehicle park brake.
• Block wheels of the machine.
• Make sure body parts are not under tow bar.
• Do not let children or an untrained person operate
machine.
• Do not let anyone, especially children, ride on this machine
or the towing vehicle.
OPERATION
• Cultivate at a slow tractor speed.
• Check towing vehicle brake action before you operate.
Adjust or service brakes as necessary.
• Additional weight is not normally required for cultivating
light soil. However, it is necessary when soil is heavy,
crusted, and/or thickly weeded, in order to improve the
cultivator's penetration and stability.
• Keep all parts in good condition and properly installed. Fix
damaged parts immediately. Replace worn or broken parts.
Replace all worn or damaged safety and instruction decals.
• See Figure 6 for instructions on attaching concrete block
as additional weight.
• Do not modify the machine or safety devices. Unauthorized
modifications to the towing vehicle or machine may impair its
function and safety, and void the warranty.
• Cultivating depth can be controlled by use of the adjustable
Gauge Shoes (7).
• Keep all nuts, bolts and screws tight.
MAINTENANCE
• Excessive load can cause loss of traction and loss of
control on slopes. Reduce weight when operating on slopes.
• The key to years of trouble-free service is to keep your
Cultivator clean and dry.
• Use only approved sleeve hitches. Do not attach this
machine except at the approved hitch point.
• Never allow wet material to remain on Cultivator for
extended periods of time.
• Follow the manufacturer's recommendations for weight
limits for towed equipment and using on slopes. Use
counterweights, wheel weights, or chains as described in the
towing vehicle operator's manual.
• For rust on Gauge Shoes (7) and Spring Shanks (6) apply
a light coat of oil. For rust on rest of Cultivator, sand and
apply a light coat of enamel paint.
• Do not shift to neutral and coast downhill.
KEEP RIDERS OFF TOWED ATTACHMENT
• Keep riders off towed attachment.
• Periodically check all fasteners for tightness.
QUALITY CONTINUES WITH QUALITY SERVICE
We provide a process to remedy your questions or problems.
• Riders on an attachment are subject to injury, such as
being thrown off the attachment during sudden starts, stops
and turns.
Follow the steps below to get answers to any questions you
may have about your product, or to order replacement parts:
1. Refer to your attachment and machine operator manuals.
• Riders obstruct the operator's view, resulting in the
attachment being used in an unsafe manner.
2. In North America and Canada, call 1-877-728-8224 and
