OPERATION

SAFE OPERATING PRECAUTIONS

Before operating the tiller for the first time, please review the IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION on page 3 and BEFORE OPERATION chapter starting on page 8.

Even if you have operated other tillers, take time to become familiar with the operation of this tiller’s controls and handling.

For your safety, avoid starting or operating the engine in an enclosed area, such as a garage. Your engine’s exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide gas that can collect rapidly in an enclosed area and cause illness or death.

If the tiller starts to shake or vibrate, stop the engine immediately. After the tiller tines have completely stopped, inspect them to determine the cause of the vibration. Sudden vibration is a sign of a hazardous problem, such as loose or damaged tilling tines (or tiller attachment), hidden objects in the soil, or ground that is too hard to till. Do not operate the tiller until the problem is corrected.

Prolonged exposure to vibration may cause vibration syndrome (Raynaud’s disease). Symptoms include loss of skin color in the hands and numbness or a painful tingling sensation in the fingers, hands, and arms. Regular users of any power equipment may feel the numbness or pain spontaneously, at any time, not just after using the equipment. If any of these symptoms occur, see a physician immediately.

Moving the Tiller

Do not move the tiller with the engine running.

The tiller has transport wheels [3] to allow easy maneuvering to and from the work area. Install the transport wheels by inserting the wheel bar up through the transmission housing.

Before tilling, remove the lock pin [1], clevis pin [2], and transport wheels [3] and install the drag bar.
