OPERATION

IMPORTANT NOTICE:
! Before starting the motor, first move the tiller to the location where you will work.

! When running, the tiller blades will pull forward. Using the handle, slowly tilt the blades downward.

CAUTION:
Use the tiller for breaking up clumps of soil and preparing garden beds for sowing.
To break up clumps of soil or for deep loosening, allow the tiller to pull your hands to the end of their reach
and then firmly pull the tiller back towards yourself. You will achieve the best results by repeatedly allowing
the tiller to move forward and then pulling it back towards yourself again. The movement of the tiller towards
you will achieve more aggressive and deeper ploughing by the blades.
In the event that the tiller sinks deep into the soil and stays in the one location, rock it gently from side to side
until it again starts moving forward.
WARNING:
! Be very careful to avoid tripping when moving backwards and when pulling the tiller towards yourself.
! Never travel over the power cord with the tiller. Check that the power cord is always in a safe position behind
you.
! When working on a slope, always stand diagonally to the slope to maintain a firm safe stance. Do not work
on extremely steep slopes.
