BEFORE OPERATION

ARE YOU READY TO OPERATE THE TILLER?

Your safety is your responsibility. A little time spent in preparation will significantly reduce your risk of injury.

Knowledge

Read and understand this manual. Know what the controls do and how to operate them.

Familiarize yourself with the tiller and its operation before you begin to use it. Know what to do in case of emergencies.

Physical and Mental Readiness

You must be alert and in good physical condition to operate the tiller. Do not operate the tiller if you are tired, ill, or under the influence of alcohol, medication, or any substance that might impair your vision, dexterity, or judgment.

If you have any physical problem that may be aggravated by strenuous work, consult your physician before operating the tiller.

Protective Clothing

Wearing protective clothing will reduce your risk of injury. Do not wear loose clothing, jewelry, short pants, sandals, or go barefoot. Secure hair so it is above shoulder level.

Hand and Body Protection

Wear gloves, a long-sleeved shirt, and long pants made of heavy material. Clothing should fit closely but allow freedom of movement, and should have no strings, straps, etc. that could catch on brush or the tiller. Keep clothing fastened.

Foot Protection

Wear sturdy work boots with good toe protection and nonslip soles.

IS YOUR WORKING AREA READY?

Objects thrown by the tiller can cause serious injury. Before operating the tiller, carefully inspect the area, and remove all objects that could be thrown by, or entangled in, the tilling attachment, such as rocks, broken glass, nails, wire, or string.

Never operate the tiller without good visibility or light.

Clear the area of children, bystanders, and pets. Keep all children, bystanders, and pets at least 50 feet (15 meters) away from where the tiller is being operated.

If anyone approaches you while you are operating the tiller, release the throttle lever and stop the engine.

IS YOUR TILLER READY TO GO?

For your safety, and to maximize the service life of your equipment, it is very important to take a few moments before you operate the tiller to check its condition. Be sure to take care of any problem you find, or have your servicing dealer correct it, before you operate the tiller.

WARNING

Improperly maintaining this tiller, or failing to correct a problem before operation, could cause a malfunction in which you could be seriously injured.

Always perform a pre-operation inspection before each operation, and correct any problem.

Safety Inspection

Look around the engine for signs of oil or gasoline leaks. Wipe up any spills before starting the engine.

Replace any damaged parts.

Check that all fasteners are in place and secure. Tighten as necessary.

Tiller Tine Inspection

Look for signs of damage to the tilling tines (or any accessory installed). Replace any tiller tines and parts that are worn out, bent, cracked, chipped, or damaged in any way.

Make sure the tiller accessory is properly installed and securely fastened (see attachment installation instructions).

Check that the debris shield is securely installed and in good condition.

Maintenance Inspection

Check the oil level (see page 14). Running the engine with a low oil level can cause engine damage.

Check the air filter (see page 15). A dirty air filter will restrict air flow to the carburetor, reducing engine and tiller performance.

Check throttle operation (see page 17). The throttle must operate smoothly for good throttle control.

Check the fuel level (see page 18). Starting with a full tank will help to eliminate or reduce operating interruptions for refueling.
