Always wear safety glasses or eye shields before starting your tiller and while tilling. We recommend a wide vision safety mask for over spectacles or standard safety glasses. HOW TO USE YOUR TILLER Know how to operate all controls before adding fuel and oil or attempting to start engine. STOPPING (See Fig. 9) TINES AND DRIVE • Release drive control bar to stop movement. • Move shift lever to “N” (neutral) position. ENGINE • Move throttle control to “STOP” position. • Never use choke to stop engine. DRIVE CONTROL BAR “ENGAGED” PO SI TION SHIFT LEVER DRIVE CONTROL BAR “DISENGAGED” PO SI TION THROTTLE CONTROL Fig. 9 TINE OPERATION - WITH WHEEL DRIVE • Always release drive control bar before moving shift lever into another position. • Tine movement is achieved by moving shift lever to either the counter rotating ( ) till position or the forward rotating ( ) till position and engaging drive control bar. FORWARD - WHEELS ONLY/TINES STOPPED • Release drive control bar and move shift lever in di ca tor to “F” (forward) position. Engage drive control bar and tiller will move forward. REVERSE - WHEELS ONLY/TINES STOPPED • DO NOT STAND DIRECTLY BEHIND TILLER. • Release the drive control bar. • Move throttle control to “SLOW” position. • Move shift lever indicator to “R” (reverse) position. • Hold drive control bar against the handle to start tiller movement. HARD TO SHIFT GEARS • Briefly engage drive control bar and release or rock tiller forward and backward until are able to shift gears. DEPTH STAKE (See Fig. 10) The depth stake can be raised or lowered to allow you more versatile tilling and cul ti vat ing, or to more easily transport your tiller. TRANSPORT POSITION SHALLOWEST TILLING (CULTIVATING) DEEPEST TILLING DEPTH STAKE Fig. 10 DRAG STAKE (See Fig. 11) The drag stake should be raised when tilling in the counter rotating ( ) till position. The drag stake should be lowered when tilling in the forward rotating ( )till position. depth_stake_10 LOWERED (FOR WARD ROTATING TILL) RAISED (COUNTER ROTATING TILL) Fig. 11 TILLING (See Fig. 12) • Release depth stake pin. Pull the depth stake up for increased tilling depth. Place depth stake pin in hole of depth stake to lock in position. • Place shift lever indicator in counter rotating ( ) till position . • Hold the drive control bar against the handle to start tilling movement. Tines and wheels will both turn. • Move throttle control to “FAST” position for deep tilling. To cultivate, throttle control can be set at any desired speed, depending on how fast or slow you wish to cultivate. IMPORTANT: ALWAYS RELEASE DRIVE CONTROL BAR BEFORE MOVING SHIFT LEVER INTO ANOTHER POSITION. 8 9 depth_stake_11 OPERATION TO TRANSPORT CAUTION: Before lifting or trans port ing, allow tiller engine and muffler to cool. Disconnect spark plug wire. Drain gasoline from fuel tank. AROUND THE YARD • Release the depth stake pin. Move the depth stake down to the top hole for transporting the tiller. Place depth stake pin in hole of depth stake to lock in position. This prevents tines from scuffing the ground. • Place shift lever indicator in “F” (forward) position for transporting. • Hold the drive control bar against the handle to start tiller movement. Tines will not turn. • Move throttle control to desired speed. AROUND TOWN • Disconnect spark plug wire. • Drain fuel tank. • Transport in upright position to prevent oil leakage. Fig. 13 OIL LEVEL NUT “B” OUTER NUT “A” SIDE SHIELD DEPTH STAKE PIN “RELEASED” POSITION “LOCKED” POSITION Fig. 12 BEFORE START ING ENGINE IMPORTANT: BE VERY CAREFUL NOT TO ALLOW DIRT TO ENTER THE ENGINE WHEN CHECKING OR ADDING OIL OR FUEL. USE CLEAN OIL AND FUEL AND STORE IN APPROVED, CLEAN, COVERED CONTAINERS. USE CLEAN FILL FUNNELS. CHECK ENGINE OIL LEVEL (See Fig. 13) • The engine in your unit has been shipped, from the factory, already filled with SAE 30 summer weight oil. • With engine level, clean area around oil filler plug and remove plug. • Engine oil should be to point of overflowing when engine is level. For ap proxi mate capacity see “PROD UCT SPEC I FI CA TIONS” on page 3 of this manual. All oil must meet A.P.I. Service Classification SG-SL. • Reinstall engine oil cap and tighten. • For cold weather operation you should change oil for easier starting (See oil viscosity chart in the Maintenance sec tion of this manual). • To change engine oil, see the Maintenance section in this manual. TURNING • Release the drive control bar. • Move throttle control to “SLOW” position. • Place shift lever indicator in “F” (forward) position. Tines will not turn. • Lift handle to raise tines out of ground. • Swing the handle in the opposite direction you wish to turn, being careful to keep feet and legs away from tines. • When you have completed your turn-around, release the drive control bar and lower handle. Place shift lever in (till) position and move throttle control to de sired speed. To begin tilling, hold drive control bar against the handle. CULTIVATING • Use the f...
