OPERATION If the tines become obstructed:  Remove the battery pack.  Remove obstruction from the tines. NOTE: Use a screwdriver or a small stick to remove obstructions. Do not try to unclog the tines by tapping the motor head against the ground as this could bend the tines or damage the unit. If the tine shaft becomes obstructed:  Remove the battery pack.  Remove the hitch pin and tines from one side of the tine shaft.  Remove vines, grass or other obstructions wrapped around the tine shaft.  Replace the tines in the order that they were removed and secure with hitch pin.  Repeat these steps to clean the other side of the tine shaft. NOTE: The tool has four tines for cultivating - two inner tines stamped "B" and "C", and two outer tines stamped "A" and "D". When viewed from the front, as shown in figure 11, the tines stamped "D" and "C" are on the left and the tines stamped "A" and "B" are on the right. For correct operation of the unit, the tines must be installed in the correct orientation. NOTE: The unit will not operate properly if the tines are installed incorrectly. If you notice a problem with the cultivating operation of the unit, check for proper tine positioning.
