- 1). Put the tiller on a level surface, turn it off and make sure it is in the “park” gear.
- 2). Prop the tiller up on blocks, boards or another surface high enough to raise the tines completely off the ground.
- 3). Decide which side you will replace first and lay out the correct tine for that side. There is a left tine and a right tine, so make sure you get and put the correct tine for the correct side.
- 4). Remove the old tine from the side you are working on using the proper screwdriver. Your installation/instruction manual will have pictures of the screws that are on your particular tiller. If you look at that first, you will know what type of screwdriver you will need.
- 5). Clean the area around the tine housing. This will ensure that the new tines fit properly and function more efficiently.
- 6). Fit the new tine (make sure it is the correct tine for the side being worked on) onto the tine housing and tighten the screws securely.
- 7). Repeat for the other tine.
