CAMON Rotavators Operating Hints LET THE MACHINE DO THE WORK. Excessive downward pressure on the handlebars may cause the machine to jump. Apply gentle pressure and the machine will find its own digging depth according to the type of ground. If the ground is hard, position the depth adjuster centre knife on the top hole and make several passes until the desired depth is achieved.
