Safety is a primary concern in the design and manufacture of our products. Unfortunately, our efforts to provide safe equipment can be wiped out by an operator’s single careless act.
In addition to the design and configuration of equipment, hazard control and accident preven­tion are dependent upon the awareness, concern, judgement, and proper training of personnel involved in the operation, transport, maintenance and storage of equipment.
It has been said “The best safety device is an informed, careful operator.” We ask you to be that kind of operator.
SAFETY RULES
ATTENTION! BECOME ALERT! YOUR SAFETY IS INVOLVED!

ATTACHING ROTARY TILLER TO TRACTOR
1. Move the tractor into position in front of the tiller.
Move back slowly and carefully, not allowing any­one to be between the tractor and the tiller.
2. Turn off tractor engine.
3. Attach the two lower arms of the 3-point hitch with
the two hitch-pin assemblies.
4. Attach the tractor center link to the upper hitch point of the rotary tiller. Adjust the length of the center link until the tops of the frame ends are par­allel to the ground.
5. Adjust the tractor lower 3-point arm anti-sway devices to prevent tiller from swinging side to side during transport.
6. Attach the front PTO driveline from the rotary tiller to the tractor. (Slide the front section of the PTO driveline into the back section. Slide the PTO shaft onto the rear PTO output of the tractor).
NOTICE
If the PTO driveline is too long, severe driveline
and gearbox damage is possible when hooking up the PTO driveline from the rotary tiller to the trac­tor. The front PTO driveline is long enough to fit a variety of tractors. It is possible that the front PTO driveline will need to be cut. There will be NO bene­fit by cutting only one telescoping section. Both sections of the driveline must be cut. DO NOT FORCE THE PTO TO FIT.
WARRANTY IS VOID IF THE PTO DRIVELINE IS
TOO LONG, resulting in gearbox, PTO, yoke or cross bearing damage.
NOTE: The PTO driveline, when attached to the tractor
and gearbox, must not extend so there is less than four inches of overlap within the PTO driveline.
7. Raise jackstand and secure in operating position.
10 Operation
(Rev. 6/7/2011) MAN0813 (3/17/2010)
DRIVELINE ATTACHMENT
1-1/4"
A
Attach the rotary tiller to the tractor 3-point hitch (or quick hitch if available). Do not attach driveline. Raise and lower the tiller to determine maximum and mini­mum distance between the tractor PTO shaft and the gearbox input shaft. If the distance is too large, the driveline will be too short for proper engagement. If the distance is too small, the driveline may bottom out in operation and damage the tiller or tractor.
If the driveline is too short, please call your Woods dealer for a longer driveline.
If the driveline is too long, please follow the instructions for shortening the driveline.
SHORTENING DRIVELINE
1. Move the tiller up and down to get the shortest pos-
sible distance between tractor PTO shaft and gear­box input shaft. Leave the tiller in the minimum distance position. Install jack stands under the tiller for support.
2. Separate the driveline into two halves and connect them to the tractor and the gearbox.
3. Place driveline halves parallel to one another to determine how much to shorten the driveline.
Figure 2. Determine Shield Length
5. Cut the upper shield to this overall dimension
Figure 3. Cut Shield
6. Place the cut portion of the shield against the end
of the shaft and use as a guide. Mark and cut the shaft.

WARNING
Ensure the drive halves slide smoothly together.
Do not run the tractor if proper driveline engagement cannot be obtained through these methods.
Connect the driveline to tractor PTO shaft, making sure the spring-activated locking collar slides freely and locks driveline to PTO shaft.
NOTICE
If attaching with quick hitch, the distance
between the tractor PTO and gearbox input shaft will increase. Please follow the steps as you would for a 3-point hitch to insure proper engagement.
WORKING DEPTH ADJUSTMENT
Keep all persons away from operator control area while performing adjustments, service, or maintenance.
1. Raise the tiller off the ground.
2. Level tiller side to side. Check by measuring from
the forward skid shoe pivot to the ground on each side. (Figure 5)
3. Adjust, using tractor 3-point arm leveling device.
6. Adjust the skid shoe to the desired tilling depth
(Figure 6). Reinstall the cap screws in the rear of the skid shoe and tighten all cap screws.
Figure 6. Tiller Depth Adjustment
NOTE: Tillage depth is dependent on ground hard-
ness, tractor speed, skid shoe setting, and tractor hitch adjustment. Multiple passes may be neces­sary to achieve tillage depth.
TILLER SIDE SHIFT ADJUSTMENT
NOTE: Keep the front of the tiller parallel to the
ground.
4. Place two jack-stands under the tiller rotor shaft.
5. Loosen the 1/2” cap screws that act as the front
pivots to the skid shoes. Remove the 1/2” cap screws (63) that hold the rear of the skid shoes to the tiller frame.
12 Operation
Figure 5. Leveling the Tiller
Make sure parking stand is secured in the
down position and skid shoes are in hole one before performing the following service work.
1. Disconnect tiller from tractor.
2. Measure rear tractor tire width (outside to outside).
3. Calculate side shift needed. Divide rear tractor tire
width by two and tiller width by two. Subtract tiller width from tractor width and add five inches. Check maximum tiller side shift capability on the specifica­tion page of this manual, page 4. The calculated side shift must be less than the maximum side shift. (Example: Tractor rear tire width = 70”, TC60 Tiller = 60”. 70/2 = 35”, 60/2 = 30”. 35-30 = 5” + 5” extra = 10” side shift.
4. Loosen nuts on U-bolts on lower clevis hitch (4), U­bolts on front gearbox stand (2), and bolts at the back of the gearbox stand (2). See Figures 7 and
8.
