Adjusting the Drag Stake

The drag stake helps regulate tilling depth and
prevents the tiller from jerking forward during
operation. Set the drag stake in the lowest position
to increase resistance to forward motion and to dig
deeper; raise the drag stake for transport.
1. Move the machine to a level surface, shut off the
engine, and wait for all moving parts to stop.
2. Remove the lock pin.
