  • Page 3 Engine Owner’s Manual, and any other literature you may receive. Be thoroughly familiar with the controls and the proper use of the tiller and its engine. Know how to stop the unit and disengage the controls quickly. 2. Never allow children to operate the tiller.
  • Page 4: Maintenance And Storage

    3. Never store the tiller with fuel in the fuel tank inside a building where ignition sources are present such as hot water and space heaters, furnaces, clothes dryers, stoves, electric mo- tors, etc.).
  • Page 5: Safety Decals

    • KNOW LOCATIONS AND FUNCTIONS OF ALL CONTROLS. • KEEP ALL SAFETY DEVICES AND SHIELDS IN PLACE AND WORKING. • NEVER ALLOW CHILDREN OR UNINSTRUCTED ADULTS TO OPERATE TILLER. • SHUT OFF ENGINE AND DISCONNECT SPARK PLUG WIRE BEFORE MANUALLY UN- CLOGGING TINES OR MAKING REPAIRS.
  • Page 6: Unpacking And Assembly

    NOTE: For electric start units, a second hardware bag is located near the battery. 4. The tiller is heavy. You should not at- tempt to remove it from the shipping plat- form until instructed to do so in these “Assembly”...

    Next, securely tighten the two screws and nuts in the ends of the handlebar (M, Figure 2- 7. To remove the tiller from its shipping platform, first carefully unwrap the wheel gear cable (with attached lever - see Figure 2-5) from around the chassis.
  • Page 8 Doing so will result in severe damage to the transmission components. 1. With the tiller on level ground, pull the Depth Regulator Lever (R, Figure 2-13) back and then slide it to the second notch from the top.
  • Page 9: Section 3: Features And Controls

    3. To move the tiller in reverse, first stop all forward motion. Lift up the handlebars un- til the tines clear the ground and pull the Reverse Clutch lever out.

  • Page 12: Operating Tiller

    Walk behind and a little to one side of the tiller. Use a light but secure grip with one hand on the han- dlebars, but keep your arm loose. See Figure 4-2.
  • Page 13 Changing Belt Range Speeds The tiller has two forward belt range speeds for the wheels and tines: Low and High. The two ranges are obtained by moving the for- ward drive belt between two sets of grooves on the forward drive pulley and the transmission drive pulley.
  • Page 14: Tilling Tips & Techniques

    (one hand, palm up, works most easily). • Avoid the temptation to push down on the handlebars in an attempt to force the tiller to dig deeper. Doing so takes the weight off the powered wheels, causing them to lose traction.
  • Page 15: Clearing The Tines

    • When tilling vertically, try to make the first pass uphill as the tiller digs more deeply going uphill than it does downhill. In soft soil or weeds, you may have to lift the handlebars slightly while going uphill. When going downhill, overlap the first pass by about one-half the width of the tiller.

Never store the tiller with fuel in the fuel tank in an enclosed area where gas fumes could reach an open flame or spark, or where ignition sources are present (space heaters, hot water heaters, furnaces, etc.).
  • Page 19 Also be sure the cutting edges face so they will enter the soil first when the tiller is moving for- ward–this means the cutting edges face toward the operator position.
