Front Tine Models 3365_3365B_3365K_3365KPS_3365CE_3365PS_R3355H_3365PSCE

For models R3365H and 3365PSCE only.

The controls required to start and run the rototiller are located on the handle.

A more detailed description of engine operation and all related precautions and procedures can be found in the engine manufacturer’s manual that accompanies each tiller.

Cold Starts

1.Move the throttle control to the fast position.

2.Pull starting rope out slowly one time and allow to return normally.

3.Pull starting rope out rapidly and allow rope to return normally.

4.Operate engine in the fast position.

Restarting A Warm Engine

Restarting an engine that is already warm from previous running does not normally require use of the choke.

1.Move throttle lever to fast position.

2.Pull starting rope out rapidly until engine starts. Allow rope to return normally. Repeat until engine starts.

3.Adjust throttle speed to fast for best tiller action.

Operating Speed

For normal tilling, set the throttle lever to fast.

SHUTTING DOWN

For models 3365, 3365B, 3365K, 3365KPS, 3365CE and 3365PS only.

To stop the engine at any time, move the throttle control to the off position. To stop wheels and tines at any time, release the drive safety control to the neutral position.

For models R3365H and 3365PSCE only.

To shut the engine off, push the throttle control lever all the way forward. Turn the fuel shutoff valve to the closed position.

Tilling

1.Adjust the depth regulator lever to desired tilling depth.

NOTE: Raise depth regulator lever up one hole at a time, testing tiller operation after each raise. Raising depth regulator lever too high can result in loss of control of tiller!

2.Move the throttle control to fast.

3.Place the tiller in motion by pushing down on the drive safety control lever; this will engage the tines.

!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 of a position— loss of control could result.

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

!DANGER

Engine and surrounding parts become extremely hot during normal use andwill cause serious burn injuries if touched before the engine has cooled.

Allow engine to cool completely before touching these hot surfaces.

Always keep hands and feet clear of rotating machine parts.
