HOW TO USE THE CULTIVATOR
How To Stop The Cultivator
1. Release the throttle control to stop the
tines.
2. Move the ON/OFF switch, on the engine,
to the OFF position.
How To Set The Depth
Use the depth stake to control the tilling
depth and the forward speed. Set the depth
stake or the depth rod to the desired tilling
position as follows:
1. Remove the hairpin and the clevis pin
from the depth stake or depth rod (see
Figure 7).
2. Adjust the depth stake upward to dig
shallower or downward to dig deeper.
3. Reinstall the clevis pin and hairpin.
How To Operate The Cultivator
1. Start the engine. See "How To Start The
Engine".
2. Tilt the unit back on the depth stake or
depth rod until the tines are off the
ground. Squeeze the throttle control all
the way up against the hand grip. The
engine is governor controlled and must
be run at full throttle while tilling.
3. Hold the handle firmly and slowly tilt the
unit forward to begin the tilling action.
4. As the tines begin to make contact with
the ground, hold back on the handles so

that the tines will dig into the soil and not
ride forward over the ground.
5. Avoid tilling soil that is too dry as it will
pulverize and produce a dust that will not
hold water. Also, tilling soil that is too wet
will be hard on the machine and produce
unsatisfactory clods.
6. Lowering the depth stake will slow the
cultivator and make it till deeper. Raising
the depth bar will allow it to move faster
and till more shallow. See "How To Set
The Depth Stake or Depth Rod".
