Section 2 - OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

2.1BEFORE OPERATING:

Be thoroughly familiar with the operation of ALL controls and how to use them BEFORE operating your Tiller. Transmission shifting is done by shifting the WHEEL and TINE SHIFT LEVER into the desired position.

Refer to Figure 3.

2.1.1TRANSMISSION POSITIONS

The Tiller has four transmission positions:

NOTE: The four different transmission positions shown on the cover are close to actual positions of shift lever but are not exact. Use positions as a reference.

1.FWD & TIL - (FORWARD and TILL) (Wheels and Tines

are engaged).

2.FWD - (FORWARD) (Only the Wheels are engaged).

3.NEU - (NEUTRAL) (Wheels and Tines are disengaged).

4.REV - (REVERSE) (Rearward Wheel rotation).

2.2PRE-START CHECKLIST

Make the following checks and perform services as required before each start up. NOTE: Before checking oil level place 2x4 piece of wood under both wheels to level engine.

2.2.1CHECK ENGINE OIL and bring level up to full. (Refer to engine manual for oil specifications).

2.2.2CHECK AIR CLEANER and service according to instructions in engine manual.

2.2.3CHECK EXTERNAL SURFACES and remove dirt and dust accumulation and clean tines as needed.

2.2.4CHECK GUARDS to make sure all are in proper position and securely tightened.

2.2.5FILL FUEL TANK where fumes will be safely dissipated. Refer to engine manual for fuel specifications.

2.3STARTING - STOPPING

Know beforehand how to stop the tines, wheel drive and engine in preparation for possible emergencies. The engine is stopped by pulling the engine. THROTTLE CONTROL to the rear to STOP. See Figure 2.

STOP

FIGURE 2

When activated, the tines rotate in a rearward (Reverse) direction ONLY. With the engine running, shift into the desired transmission position and pull the WHEEL and TINE CONTROL BAIL against the handle bar to start wheel or wheel and tine rotation.

Wheel or wheel and tine rotation is STOPPED by releasing the WHEEL and TINE CONTROL BAIL. When the bail is released, rotation should STOP even with the WHEEL and TINE SHIFT LEVER in an engaged position. See Figures 3 and 4.

IR5003B, NIR5003B specifications

The Snapper IR5003B and NIR5003B are advanced infrared thermometers that represent the pinnacle of modern temperature measurement technology. These devices have been engineered for precision, durability, and user-friendliness, making them ideal for both professional and amateur applications.

One of the key features of the IR5003B is its laser-guided targeting system. This allows users to accurately measure the temperature of specific surfaces or objects from a distance, ensuring that measurements are taken from exactly the right spot. The dual laser pointers aid in visualizing the measurement area, enhancing accuracy while reducing the chances of error that can occur with wider measurement fields.

The NIR5003B model further extends its capabilities by incorporating advanced non-contact temperature measurement technology. This feature is particularly valuable in applications where direct contact with the subject is not possible or practical, such as moving objects or hazardous materials. Users can obtain quick and accurate temperature readings without the risk of contamination or damage to sensitive surfaces.

Both models boast a wide temperature range, typically spanning from -50°C to 500°C, catering to a variety of use cases, from monitoring food safety to industrial applications. The high-resolution display provides easy visibility of readings, which can be crucial in fast-paced environments where quick decisions are necessary.

Another standout characteristic of the Snapper IR5003B and NIR5003B is their response time. These thermometers are designed to gather data swiftly, allowing users to track temperature changes in real time. This is particularly useful in processes that require consistent monitoring, such as HVAC systems, engine maintenance, and food preparation.

Additionally, these devices offer features like adjustable emissivity settings, enabling users to tailor the device to the properties of different materials for improved accuracy. The ergonomic design ensures that the devices are comfortable to hold and operate, reducing user fatigue during prolonged use.

In summary, the Snapper IR5003B and NIR5003B are versatile infrared thermometers that combine advanced technology and user-friendly features. With laser targeting, non-contact measurement capabilities, a broad temperature range, swift response times, and adjustable emissivity settings, they are designed to meet the demands of various industries efficiently and effectively. Whether for professional use or home applications, these thermometers are invaluable tools for anyone needing precise temperature measurements.
