Model: Tiger-Mate 255 Double Fold Floating Hitch Field Cultivator
Part No: 91878699
Date: November 2022
Type of Document: Assembly Instructions
$ 55
A Tiger-Mate 255 field cultivator spends its life in tillage—working wide, uneven fields ahead of planting, knocking down clods and leveling the seedbed. This assembly manual is what you use when you first put the machine together or reassemble major sections after repair. It walks you through how the double-fold wings and floating hitch go together so the frame runs true and the shanks track properly. If, for example, one wing won’t fold square or the hitch doesn’t float evenly, this is the document you’d use to trace the assembly steps, verify pin locations, and correct what’s out of place.

FAQ
Q: Can I keep this manual on a tablet in the shop?
A: Yes, a digital copy works well; you can zoom in on diagrams and keep it clean while you work.
Q: Should I still print pages from it?
A: Printing key pages is handy for greasy jobs or when you’re working under the frame and don’t want a device nearby.
Safety Note
Always support raised frames and wings with approved stands before inspecting, aligning, or working underneath the cultivator.
