Remove fuel from tank before tipping unit for maintenance. Clean muffler area of all grass, dirt, and debris. Do not touch hot muffler or cylinder fins as contact may cause burns. ENGINE LUBRICATION Use only high quality detergent oil rated with API service classification SG-SL. Select the oil’s SAE viscosity grade according to your expected temperature.

Check your engine oil level more frequently to avoid possible engine damage from running low on oil. Change the oil after every 25 hours of operation or at least once a year if the tiller is not used for 25 hours in one year. Check the crankcase oil level before starting the engine and after each five (5) hours of continuous use. Add SAE 30 motor oil or equivalent. Tighten oil filler plug securely each time you check the oil level. TO CHANGE ENGINE OIL (See Figs. 11 and 12) Determine temperature range expected before oil change. All oil must meet API service classification SG-SL. • Be sure tiller is on level surface. • Oil will drain more freely when warm. • Catch oil in a suitable container. • Remove drain plug. • Tip tiller forward to drain oil. • After oil has drained completely, replace oil drain plug and tighten securely. • Remove oil filler plug. Be careful not to allow dirt to enter the engine. • Refill engine with oil. See“CHECK ENGINE OIL LEVEL” in the Operation section of this manual. AIR CLEANER (See Fig. 13) Service air cleaner cartridge every twenty-five hours, more often if engine is used in very dusty conditions. • Loosen air cleaner screws, one on each side of cover. • Remove air cleaner cover. • Carefully remove air cleaner cartridge. Be careful. Do not allow dirt or debris to fall into carburetor. « Clean by tapping gently on a flat surface. • If very dirty or damaged, replace cartridge. • Clean and replace cover. Tighten screws securely. A CAUTION: Petroleum solvents, such as kerosene, are not to be used to clean cartridge. They may cause deterioration of the cartridge. Do not oil cartridge. Do not use pressurized air to clean or dry cartridge. AIR CLEANER CARTRIDGE FIG. 13 COOLING SYSTEM (See Fig. 14) Your engine is air cooled. For proper engine performance and long life keep your engine clean. • Clean air screen frequently using a stiff-bristled-brush. • Remove blower housing and clean as necessary. • Keep cylinder fins free of dirt and chaff. FIG. 12 11 FIG. 14 MAINTENANCE MUFFLER Do not operate tiller without muffler. Do not tamper with exhaust system. Damaged mufflers orspark arresters could create a fire hazard. Inspect periodically and replace if necessary. If your engine is equipped with a spark arrester screen assembly, remove every 50 hours for cleaning and inspection. Replace if damaged. SPARK PLUG Replace spark plugs at the beginning of each tilling season or after every 50 hours of use, whichever comes first. Spark plug type and gap setting are shown in “PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS” on page 3 of this manual. TRANSMISSION Your transmission is sealed and will not require lubrication unless serviced. CLEANING Do not clean your tiller when the engine and transmission are hot. We do not recommend using pressurized water (garden hose, etc.) to clean your unit unless the gasket area around the transmission and the engine muffler, air filter and carburetor are covered to keep water out. Water in engine will shorten the useful life of your tiller. • Clean engine, wheels, finish, etc. of all foreign matter. • Keep finished surfaces and wheels free of all gasoline, oil, etc. • Protect painted surfaces with automotive type wax. SERVICE AND ADJUSTMENTS A CAUTION: Disconnect spark plug wire from spark plug and place wire where it cannot come into contact with plug. TILLER TO ADJUST HANDLE HEIGHT (See Fig. 15) Factory assembly has provided lowest handle height. Select handle height best suited for your tilling conditions. Handle height will be different when tiller digs into soil. • If a higher handle height is desired, loosen the four nuts securing handle panel to engine brackets. • Slide handle panel to desired location. • Tighten the four nuts securely. TINE ARRANGEMENT Youroutertines can be assembled in several different ways to suit your tilling or cultivating needs. A CAUTION: Tines are sharp. Wear gloves or other protection when handling tines. NORMAL TILLING - 26" PATH (See Fig. 16) • Assemble holes “A” in tine hubs to holes “B” in tine shaft. MID-WIDTH TILLING - 24" PATH (See Fig. 17) • Assemble holes “A” in tine hubs to holes “C” in tine shaft. FIG. 17 12 SERVICE AND ADJUSTMENTS NARROW TILLING/CULTI...
