hitch of your tractor by removing the two cotter­hairpins.
3. Place the rotary tiller behind the tractor in the
approximate position shown in Fig. 2.
4. Attach universal drive shaft (Ref. 26) to the tractor
power take off. Tighten set screw (Ref. 27).
5. Move the lift lever on the tractor until the draft bar
assemblies line up with pivot brackets (Ref. 24).
6. Assemble pivot brackets (Ref. 24) to the rear of the
tractor with washers and cotter-hairpins.
ATTACHING YOUR ROTARY TILLER TO YOUR

2.
tractor by removing the two cotter-hairpins on the loose clevis pins and the two cotter-hairpins from the hitch adjusting rods. Refer to Fig. 1.
Lift the rotary tiller with the lift h^^adle on the tractor to transport it to and from the work area. Use caution when transporting the rotary tiller since your ground clearance has been reduced.
The entire tiller unit is offset to the left to allow closer tilling with the left side.
NOTE: BE SURE THE POWER TAKE OFF HANDLE
IS IN THE ‘‘OFF” POSITION BEFORE STARTING THE TRACTOR ENGINE. Refer to the tractor manual for proper position of the PTO handle.

GENERAL ROTARY TILLER OPERATION

ALWAYS shut the engine off when removing a stone or anything that becomes entangled in the tines.
All large stones or rocks should be removed from the area before you begin tilling.
Tilling can be done with or without the outer tine assemblies. You can till 32!/2” wide with the outer tines and 17” wide with only the inner tines.
Use rear wheel weights when tilling. Part number
191-776.
Maximum tilling depth is approximately 10” depending on the type of soil. This CANNOT be accomplished in one pass. Maximum tilling depth may be only 2-1/2” on extremely hard soil on the first pass.
The more passes you make with the tiller over the same area, the deeper you can till and the finer you pulverize the soil. Change directions as often as you can to level out the ground and to prevent furrows.
When tilling, the tiller will push the tractor and the transmission on the tractor will hold the tractor back.
For easy lifting of the rotary tiller from the ground, shut off the power by disengaging the PTO handle and continue to drive the tractor forward. The tines will climb out of the hole when you pull the lift lever handle back.
3. Adjust the hitch adjusting rods until 3 or 4 threads extend beyond the rear hitch ferrule.
4. Place the rotary tiller behind the tractor in the
approximate position shown in Fig. 2.
5. Attach universal drive shaft (Ref. 26) to the tractor
power take off. Tighten set screw (Ref. 27).
6. Assemble brackets (Ref. 68 & 69) to the rear of the
tractor with the loose clevis pins, washers and cotter-hairpins.
CHECK LUBRICANT LEVEL at this time. The gear case is lubricated at the factory but should be checked for proper lubricant level before each operation. Remove plug (Ref. 61) on side of gear case. Lubricant should be at this level, if not, fill through the vented pipe plug hole (Ref. 21) with SAE 140 oil until the lubricant over flows through the hole in the side of the gear case. Replace the pipe plugs. BE SURE THE VENTED PIPE PLUG IS IN THE OIL FILL HOLE. Refer to Fig. 3.

LUBRICATION

Gear Case - Lubricated with three quarts of SAE 140
oil. It is lubricated at the factory. Be sure to check
the lubricant level before each use.
To check the oil level, remove plug (Ref. 61) on the side of the gear case. See Fig. 3. Lubricant should be at this level. If not, fill through the vented pipe plug
hole (Ref. 21) until it overflows through the hole in
the side of the gear case. Replace both plugs. BE SURE THE VENTED PIPE PLUG IS IN THE OIL FILL HOLE.
Grease Fittings — There are three grease fittings on
the universal drive shaft assembly. Lubricate after
each 25 hours of use with an automotive multi-purpose
type grease. Apply grease with grease gun provided with your tractor. Lubricate until the old grease is pushed through and clean grease appears.

WARRANTY PARTS AND SERVICE POLICY
The purpose of warranty Is to protect the customer from defects in material and workmanship, defects which are not detected at the time of manufacture.
Our aim is to build into our product quality and reliability. Considerable emphasis is placed on quality control in order to assure our customer of satisfactory product performance. To achieve this goal, it is
necessary to gain the cooperation of ail concerned, MTD, our sales force and our customers. MTD^s responsibility is to build a quality product and to back up that product. MTD must build this
quality product at a competitive price. This cannot be achieved without production in quantity. Quantity
production is mass production. In mass production it is always possible for undetected defects to be present when the product reaches the customer. Our warranty is extended to assure the customer that any such defects will be corrected.
Use and maintenance are the responsibility of the customer. MTD cannot assume responsibility for con
ditions over which it has no control. MTD's responsibility does not cover misuse, excessive use, accident
neglect, improper maintenance or alterations by unauthorized persons. Satisfactory product performance can only result when a manufacturer provides and backs up a quality product and the customer follows through with proper use and proper maintenance of that product. When both the manufacturer and the customer recognizes and assumes his responsibility, satisfactory product performance and customer sat isfaction are assured.
