2.Adjust the depth stake upward to dig shallower or downward to dig deeper.

How To Operate The Cultivator

1.Start the engine. See “How To Start The Engine”.

2.Tilt the unit back on the depth stake or depth rod until the tines are off the ground. Squeeze the throttle control all the way up against the hand grip. The engine is governor controlled and must be run at full throttle while tilling.

3.Hold the handle firmly and slowly tilt the unit forward to begin the tilling action.

4.As the tines begin to make contact with the ground, hold back on the handles so

that the tines will dig into the soil and not ride forward over the ground.

5.Avoid tilling soil that is too dry as it will pulverize and produce a dust that will not hold water. Also, tilling soil that is too wet will be hard on the machine and produce unsatisfactory clods.

6.Lowering the depth stake will slow the cultivator and make it till deeper. Raising the depth bar will allow it to move faster and till more shallow. See “How To Set The Depth Stake or Depth Rod”.

WARNING: Keep away from the rotating tines. Rotating tines can cause injury.
