Tilling Tips

The key to successful tilling is to begin with a shallow cut on the first pass, and then work an inch or two deeper on each successive pass.

•Tilling depth will vary with ground conditions.

•When beginning to till in unbroken ground or in extremely hard soil, set the detent pin in the highest hole of the drag stake (follow instructions under Tilling section). This will allow for shallow tilling. With the drag stake in this position, make several light passes over the area to be tilled. Reset for deeper depths with successive passes.

•If tiller jumps or skids uncontrollably, lower the drag stake by placing the detent pin in a higher hole. This will allow for shallower tilling. Hold firmly to the handlebars to control sudden lurches.

•If weeds, tall grasses, vines, or other materials clog or jam the tines, reverse the tiller to unwind vegetation.

Immediately release the drive control levers if the tines jam or you strike a foreign object. With drive control levers in neutral position, push throttle control to stop position to stop the engine. Disengage the spark plug wire.When tines have stopped, remove foreign objects and check for damage.

Cultivating Tips

If you plan to use your tiller for cultivating:

•Plant rows on 20" - 22" centers for ease of turning.

•Set the depth regulator lever with the detent pin in one of the higher holes. This will allow for shallow cultivation necessary to turn over weeds, and break up and aerate the soil.

!WARNING

Extreme caution must be taken in select- ing tilling depth. If you attempt to till too deeply for soil conditions, that is, with the drag stake in too high a position, loss of control could result.

If removing material from the tines by hand, stop engine and remove spark plug wire first.
