ature package) to identify the controls on your engine.

IMPORTANT: The control for stopping the engine is located on the engine.

WHEEL DRIVE PINS

Each wheel is equipped with a wheel drive pin (A, Figures 3-2 and 3-3) that secures the wheel to the wheel shaft (B). The wheels can be positioned in either a WHEEL DRIVE or a FREEWHEEL mode.

WARNING: Never allow either of the wheels to be in the FREEWHEEL position when the engine is running. Always put both wheels in the WHEEL DRIVE position before starting the engine.

Failure to comply could cause loss of tiller control, property damage, or personal injury.

Before starting the engine, put both wheels in the WHEEL DRIVE position by inserting the wheel drive pins through the wheel hubs and the wheel shaft. Doing so “locks” the wheels to the wheel shaft, causing the wheels to turn when either the

Forward Clutch Bail (all models) or the Re- verse Clutch Control (Models 634F and 634A) is engaged.

Use the FREEWHEEL mode only when the engine is not running. In FREEWHEEL, the wheel drive pins are placed only through the holes in the wheel shaft (not the wheel hubs), thus allowing the wheels to turn freely when you manually move the tiller.

To place the wheels in WHEEL DRIVE or

FREEWHEEL:

1.Stop engine, disconnect spark plug wire from spark plug and allow engine to cool.

WARNING: Do not place tiller on its side when changing wheel drive positions. Doing so could result in gasoline leaking from the fuel tank.

Failure to follow this instruction could result in personal injury or property damage.

2.Raise one wheel about one inch off the ground and place a sturdy support under the transmission.

3.Remove hairpin cotter (C, Figures 3-2 and 3-3) from wheel drive pin (A).

wheel hub (D, Figure 3-2) and wheel shaft (B). Insert wheel drive pin (A) through wheel hub (D) and wheel

shaft (B). Secure wheel drive pin with hair- pin cotter (C) by pushing hairpin cotter in as far as it will go. Repeat with the other wheel and then remove the support from beneath the transmission.

5.FOR FREEWHEEL MODE ( Figure 3-3): Slide the wheel inward and insert the wheel drive pin (A, Figure 3-3) only through the hole in the wheel shaft (B). Secure wheel drive pin with hairpin cotter (C) by pushing hairpin cotter in as far as it will go. Repeat for the other wheel and then remove the support from beneath the transmission.

630C-Tuffy specifications

The Troy-Bilt 630C-Tuffy stands out as a reliable and robust garden tiller designed for homeowners and gardening enthusiasts looking to cultivate their gardens with ease. This tiller is particularly noted for its performance, durability, and user-friendly features, making it a favored choice among many.

One of the most prominent characteristics of the 630C-Tuffy is its powerful 208cc engine, which provides ample power for breaking up hard soil, turning compacted ground, and mixing in compost or fertilizers. This engine ensures that the tiller can handle a variety of tasks, from light tilling in a small garden to more demanding projects. The tiller features a 16-inch tilling width, allowing users to cover a significant area in a shorter amount of time while the adjustable tilling depth can be set from 1 to 7 inches to suit specific gardening needs.

A standout technology utilized in the Troy-Bilt 630C-Tuffy is its Counter-Rotating Tines (CRT). This innovation allows the tines to turn in the opposite direction of the wheels, creating a more effective and efficient tilling action. This design not only aids in breaking up the soil more thoroughly but also reduces the likelihood of the tiller becoming bogged down in tougher soil conditions.

The tiller is built with a sturdy steel frame and heavy-duty tines that ensure longevity and reliability even with repeated use. Its 6-position adjustable handle offers comfortable operation, enabling users to customize the height according to their preference, which helps reduce fatigue during long tilling sessions. Moreover, the Troy-Bilt 630C-Tuffy is equipped with a bump start feature, making it easy to start and operate.

For added convenience, this tiller features large, durable wheels that enhance maneuverability across various terrains, providing improved stability and traction. The 630C-Tuffy also boasts a folding handle for easier storage, allowing users to save space in their garages or sheds when not in use.

In summary, the Troy-Bilt 630C-Tuffy combines power, technology, and user-friendly features to deliver a top-tier gardening tool. With its ergonomic design, efficient tilling capabilities, and strong build, it is a valuable addition to any garden enthusiast's toolkit, ready to turn soil and nurture thriving gardens.
