3.03 - Side-Shift
The side-shift capability gives the tiller numerous advantages over center mounted
tillers. It can till next to shrubs, sidewalks or buildings. Smaller sizes can cover wider
tractor tire tracks.
To side-shift the tiller from the center mount position, do the following:
1. Loosen the 8 nuts (#1, fig. 8) holding the locking clamps to the front and rear of the
gearbox housing. Do not remove the nuts.
2. Push the sliding frame (#2, fig. 8) towards the left to its new desired position. This
can be done without levers or turnbuckles. Do not shift it right of center.
3. Re-tighten the 8 nuts.
