OPERATION TIPS

The cultivator can be used to break up garden soil and
prepare a seedbed for planting. Plan ahead to leave
enough room between the seed rows to allow for
machine cultivating after the plants have grown.
1. Several passes over the same path may be required
to reach the desired depth. Do not try to dig too
deeply in the first pass.
2. If the machine jumps or bucks, allow the unit to
move forward at a slightly faster rate or install wheel
assembly.
3. If the cultivator stays and digs in at one spot, try
rocking it from side to side in order to start it moving
forward again.
4. If the soil is very hard, water a few days before
cultivating. Avoid working the soil when soggy or
wet. Wait a day or two after heavy rain for the
ground to dry.
5. Shallow cultivating less than 5cm. deep can be used
to disrupt weeds and aerate soil, without injuring
nearby plant roots. It should be done often so that
weeds do not grow large and cause tangling in the
tines of the unit.
