Operating Speed

For normal tilling, set the throttle lever to “fast”.

SHUTTING DOWN

To stop the engine at any time, move throttle control to the off position. To stop wheels and tines at any time, release the drive safety control lever to the neutral position.

Tilling

1.Adjust the depth regulator lever to desired tilling depth.

NOTE: Raise depth regulator lever up one hole at a time, testing tiller operation after each raise. Raising depth regulator lever too high can result in loss of control of tiller!

2.Move the throttle control to fast.

3.Place the tiller in motion by pushing down on the drive safety control lever--this will engage the tines.

!WARNING

Extreme caution must be taken in select- ing tilling depth. If you attempt to till too deeply for soil conditions, that is, with the drag stake in too high a position, loss of control could result.

If removing material from the tines by hand, stop engine and remove spark plug

wire first.

!DANGER

Engine and surrounding parts become extremely hot during normal use and will cause serious burn injuries if touched before the engine has cooled.

Allow engine to cool completely before touching these hot surfaces.

Always keep hands and feet clear of rotating machine parts.
