WARNING: Before starting engine, be sure that both wheels are in WHEEL DRIVE position. See Wheels Drive Pins for instructions. Engaging the Forward Clutch Bail or Reverse Clutch Control (if equipped) when the wheels are not in WHEEL DRIVE could allow the tines to rapidly propel the tiller forward or backward. Failure to comply could cause loss of tiller control, property damage, or personal injury.

FORWARD CLUTCH BAIL

The Forward Clutch Bail (E, Figure 3-4) controls the engagement of forward drive to the wheels and tines.

To operate the Forward Clutch Bail:

1.Put wheels in WHEEL DRIVE position (see “WARNING” statement above).

2.Lift and hold the clutch bail (E, Figure 3-

4) against the handlebar to start the wheels and tines rotating in a forward direction.

3.Release the clutch bail to disengage (stop) the wheels and tines (the engine will continue to run).

REVERSE CLUTCH CONTROL (Models 634F/634A only)

The Reverse Clutch Control (F, Figure 3-4) controls the engagement of reverse drive to the wheels and tines. The reversing feature is used for maneuvering the tiller only — never engage the tines in the ground while operating in reverse.

WARNING: Use extreme caution when reversing or pulling the machine towards you. Look behind to avoid obstacles.

Never attempt to till in reverse. Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury or property damage.

To operate the Reverse Clutch Control:

1.Put wheels in WHEEL DRIVE position (see “WARNING” statement at the left).

2.Stop all tiller motion by releasing the Forward Clutch Bail.

3.Lift the handlebar until the tines clear the ground, look behind you to avoid any obstacles, and then pull the control knob (F, Figure 3-4) out. The wheels and tines will rotate in a reverse direction.

4.Release the control knob to disengage (stop) the wheels and tines (the engine will continue to run).

DEPTH REGULATOR LEVER

This lever (G, Figure 3-5) controls the till- ing depth of the tines. Pull the lever back and slide it up or down to engage the notched height settings.

The “travel position” (highest notch) raises the tines approximately 1-1/2" off the ground, allowing the tiller to be moved without the tines contacting the ground. This setting should also be used when starting the engine.

Moving the lever upward will increase the tilling depth. The lowest notch allows a till- ing depth of approximately 6”, depending on soil conditions. For best results, always

begin tilling at a very shallow depth setting and gradually increase the tilling depth.

WARNING: Do not attempt to till too deeply too quickly. Gradually work down to deeper tilling depths.

Place the Depth Regulator Lever in the “travel” position before starting the engine. This position prevents the tines from touching the ground until you are ready to begin tilling. Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury or property damage.

HANDLEBAR HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT

The handlebar height is adjustable to three different settings (Figure 3-6). In general, adjust the handlebars so they are at waist level when the tines are 3"-4" in the soil.

To adjust the handlebars:

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

2.Remove hardware, reposition handle- bars, and reinstall hardware securely.

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.
