Chapter III Brief introduction of mini tiller This product is made in compliance with JB/T10266.1-2001 Specification of Handheld Tillers, JB/T10266.2-2001 Testing Method for Handheld Tillers, GB/T5608.3-1995 Testing Method of Rotary Tillers, GB10395.10-2006 Tractors and Machinery for Agriculture and Forestry―Technical Means for Ensuring Safety and DB50/210-2005 Technical Means for Ensuring Safe Operation of Handheld Tillers.
Chapter IV Operation method of the mini tiller i. Assembly after unpacking 1. Secure the main engine and insert the output shaft into the hexagon hole of the transmission countershaft in the lower part of the transmission box. 2. Installation of shaft and wheel: install the wheels onto both ends of output shaft and use 2 locking pin assemblies to secure them.

Adjustment of reverse cable (see Figure 3 and Figure 4) 1) Loosen the nut around the reverse cable. 2) Turn clockwise the screw until its exposed part from the handle pipe is of its shortest length.
3) Insert the reverse cable into the fork shaft on one side of the transmission box and make sure the front end of the reverse cable is in the big hole of the fork shaft. 4) Turn counterclockwise the reverse shift fork shaft appropriately and insert the cable through the opening of the cable lug on one side of the transmission box, make sure the front end of conduit is in the big hole of the cable lug.

Detach the lower cover of air filter and add in about 0.1 liter of SAE15W-40 engine oil. 7) Select the number of engine oil according to the ambient temperature of the working environment (see Table 1).
5. Add fuel into engine. No.0 or No.-10 or NO.-20 diesel oil can be added into the fuel tank of engine (refer to engine manual for details). Note: never let oil level be higher than the upper limit. 6. Prepare the engine as required by engine manual before starting it. iv.
about 8km/h. 3. Shift to “reverse” position 1) Left hand releases the clutch handle to let clutch disengage. 2) Right hand puts the shift lever to “neutral” position, take care to ensure it does reach “neutral” position, then slowly tighten your grip on the reverse shift handle. 3) Slowly tighten your grip on clutch handle to let the clutch engage, then mini tiller will run backward (note: don’t release the reverse shift handle).
2. Tilling in the irrigated field: when the length of “muddy foot” (i.e. the depth of the operator’s subsidence into mud) is shorter than 25 cm, the wet soil rotary blade set can be used to till the field. If the length of muddy foot is between 25 and 45 cm, the operator can use irrigated field rotary tilling roller to till the field.
1. Please refer to the manual for information about running-in of the gasoline engine. 2. A new or overhauled mini tiller shall work for one hour without load first, then work for another five hours under a light load, and when the engine is still warm, drain all engine oil in the crankcase of the diesel engine.
① Disassemble the whole machine at a local authorized service shop to clean and check it, and if any of the parts and components is severely worn, replace it or repair it if it is appropriate to do so. ② Ask repair and maintenance professionals to check friction disks and clutch. 5.
iv. Long storage of mini-tiller If the mini tiller need be stored for a long time, the following measures should be taken to prevent rust and erosion. 1. Seal up and store the engine as per requirements in the manual of engine. 2.
1. Grip firmly and release the clutch handle 2 to 3 times to confirm the working performance of the clutch. If it is abnormal, readjust the clutch. 2. If the clutch’s work is still abnormal after several times of adjustment, it can be confirmed that the wear of clutch forks or friction disks is too heavy, and the mini tiller’s friction disks or clutch forks shall be replaced with new ones by an authorized service shop.
