The Merry Tiller transmission is lubricated with heavy “00” grease. If the seals fail, it may not be noticed due to the heavy consistency of the grease.
SECTION VI - STORAGE • Clean the tiller thoroughly. • Wipe down the tiller with an oiled rag to prevent rust (use a light oil or silicone). • Store the unit in a clean, dry area. Do not store next to corrosive material, such as fertilizer. NOTE: If storing in an unventilated or metal storage shed, rustproof the equipment by coating with a light oil or silicone.
