Husqvarna 600CRT owner manual HOW to USE Your Tiller, Tine Operation with Wheel Drive

OPERATION

The operation of any tiller can result in foreign objects thrown into the eyes, which can result in severe eye damage. Always wear safety glasses or eye shields before starting your tiller and while tilling. We recommend a wide vision safety mask for over spectacles or standard safety glasses.
