ASSEMBLY OF SINGLE OR FRONT CULTIVATOR
The following instructions describe the disk arrangement
commonly used. The disks can also be mounted farther
apart by using the outer holes in the frame or they can be
angled toward the front center by reversing the disk mount-
ing plates as seen in the tandem instructions. The dished
(concave) side of the disks should always face forward.
. Assemble the two disk mounting plates to the frame
using eight 3/8" x 2-1/2" hex bolts, 3/8" flat washers
(placed under bolt heads), 3/8" lock washers and 3/8"
hex lock nuts. The middle slots in the plates should
angle toward the rear center of the frame. Do not
tighten yet. See figure 6.
ASSEMBLY OF REAR TANDEM CULTIVATOR
The following instructions are for the assembly of the rear
cultivator in a tandem arrangement. (Requires purchase of
a second cultivator.) The rear cultivator is towed by the hitch
bar instead of the hitch assembly. The dished (concave)
side of the disks should always face forward.
9. Assemble the two disk mounting plates to the frame
using eight 3/8" x 2-1/2" hex bolts, 3/8" flat washers
(placed under bolt heads), 3/8" lock washers and 3/8"
hex lock nuts. The middle slots in the plates should
angle toward the rear corners of the frame. Do not
tighten yet. See figure 8.
10.Assemble the disk assemblies to the disk mount
plates using four 3/8" x 1" carriage bolts, 3/8" lock
washers and 3/8" hex nuts. With the inside disks
spaced 8" to 10" apart, swivel the disk assemblies
until the angle adjustment slot is centered on the
carriage bolt. This positions the disks at a 15 degree
angle. Tighten all bolts. See figure 9.

bolt. This positions the disks at a 15 degree angle.
Tighten all bolts. See figure .

CAUTION: Lock tractor lift handle in down
position when attaching or removing the disk
cultivator from sleeve hitch.
ATTACHING CULTIVATOR TO TRACTOR
Refer to your sleeve hitch owners manual.
1. Remove the stabilizer bolts from the tractor's sleeve
hitch as shown in figure 9 to allow side to side motion
of the disk cultivator.
2. Attach the disk cultivator to the sleeve hitch on your
tractor using the sleeve hitch pin.
4. Adjust the sleeve hitch so that the disk cultivator is
free to lower below ground level but can still be raised
an adequate distance above ground for transport.
OPERATION
1. Check for loose bolts after each use.
2. Clean the disks and lightly oil any exposed metal after
each use.
3. Remove all dirt and rust and touch up with paint
before storing.
4. Store inside a dry area.
The disk cultivator is used to break up clods of dirt in plowed
soil. It can also be used to cultivate between rows of young
plants.
1. Before starting make sure the soil is dry enough by
squeezing some in your hand. If it forms a ball that
doesn't crumble then the soil is too wet for disking. Wet
soil will pack between the disk blades.
2. Adjust the disks to the desired angle setting. The angle
can be varied from 10 to 20 degrees. Start with a setting
of 15 degrees (the carriage bolt centered in the angle
adjustment slot in the bearing hanger bracket). The
greater the angle, the greater the disking action.
3. To break up dirt clods in plowed soil, start disking slowly
at first. As the clods are broken up the speed may be
gradually increased. Disk the soil using a crisscross
pattern for best results.
4. To use two cultivators in tandem, the disk assemblies
should be positioned as shown in figure 11, with the
inside disks almost touching on the front cultivator and
8" to 10" apart on the rear cultivator. With this arrange-
ment the front cultivator will throw the dirt to the outside
and the rear cultivator will throw the dirt back to the
inside.
5. To cultivate young crops by straddling the rows, move
the disks to the maximum width setting. To throw the dirt
to the outside, away from the row, mount the disks to
angle rearward in the center. To throw dirt to the inside,
to smother young weeds in the crop row, mount the disks
to angle forward in the center.
6. Up to 100 lbs. of weight may be added to help increase
penetration. Concrete blocks or other weight may be tied
or strapped to the cultivator frame. The cultivator should
be attached to the tractor's sleeve hitch in the down
position before adding weight.

CAUTION: Do not attempt to raise the tractor

ATTACHING TANDEM CULTIVATORS
1. Attach the front cultivator as instructed above.
2. Attach the rear cultivator to the front cultivator by fasten-
ing the hitch bars together using a 1/2" x 1-1/2" hex bolt
and a 1/2" hex lock nut. Do not completely tighten the
bolt, allowing a slight amount of play between the hitch
bars. See figure 11.
