Operation

Do not operate the tiller under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

Never operate the tiller without guards, covers, and hoods in place.

Keep hands, feet, and clothing away from rotating parts. Keep clear of tiller tines at all times.

Tines rotate when tiller is engaged; tines rotate when the drive safety control lever is pulled down. Releasing the drive safety control lever to neutral stops the tines.

Use extreme caution when operating on or crossing gravel drives, walks, or roads. Stay alert for hidden hazards or traffic.

After striking a foreign object, stop the engine, remove the wire from the spark plug, thoroughly inspect the tiller for any damage, and repair the damage before restarting and operating the tiller.

If vegetation clogs the tines, STOP THE ENGINE AND DISCONNECT THE SPARK PLUG WIRE before removing vegetation by hand.

Engine muffler will be hot from operation. Do not touch it with bare skin or a severe burn may result.

If the unit should start to vibrate abnormally, stop the engine and check immediately for the cause. Vibration is generally a warning of trouble.

Do not run the engine indoors; exhaust fumes are deadly.

Do not overload the machine capacity by attempting to till too deep at too fast of a rate.

Never allow bystanders near the unit.

Never operate the tiller without good visibility or light.

Be careful when tilling in hard ground. The tines may catch in the ground and propel the tiller forward. If this occurs, let go of the handlebars and do not restrain the machine.

Take all possible precautions when leaving the machine unattended. Disengage all control levers, stop the engine, wait for all moving parts to stop, and make certain guards and shields are in place.

When leaving the operating position for any reason:

-shut off the engine.

-wait for all moving parts to stop.

Maintenance and storage

Keep machine, attachments and accessories in safe working condition.

Check shear bolts, engine mounting bolts and other bolts at frequent intervals for proper tightness to be sure the equipment is in safe working condition.

To prevent accidental starting, always disconnect and secure the spark plug wire from the spark plug before performing tiller maintenance.

Never run the engine indoors. Exhaust fumes are deadly.

Always allow muffler to cool before filling the fuel tank.

Never store equipment with gasoline in the tank inside a closed building where fumes may reach an open flame or spark. Allow the engine to cool before storing in any building.
