Reverse

a.Release the drive control lever (fig. 9).

b.Move throttle control (fig. 9) to slow Position

c.Place shift lever indicator (fig. 10 -inset A) in the "R" (reverse) position.

d.Do not stand directly behind tiller.

e.To start tiller movement, push down on the drive control release and squeeze the drive control lever (fig. 9). Tines will not turn.

WARNING!

Don't back yourself into a solid obstruction such as a tree, fence, etc.

Stopping tines and engine

a.Tiller movement and tines will stop when drive control (fig. 9) is released.

b.Move shift lever indicator (fig. 10 -inset A) to "N" (Neutral) position.

c.To stop engine, move throttle control (fig. 9) to "STOP" position.

Turning

a.Release the drive control lever (fig. 9).

b.Move throttle control (fig. 9) to "SLOW" position.

c.Place shift lever indicator (fig. 10 - inset A) in "F" (forward) position. Tines will not turn.

d.Lift handle to raise tines out of the ground (fig. 9)

e.Swing the handle in the opposite direction you wish to turn, being careful to keep feet and legs away from the tines.

When you have completed your turn-around, lower the handle. Place shift lever indicator in () (tilling) position and move throttle control to desired speed. To begin tilling, push down on the drive control release and hold drive control lever against the handle.

Outer side shields

The back of the outer side shields (fig. 9) are slotted so that they can be raised for deep tilling and lowered for shallow tilling to protect small plants from being buried. Loosen nut "A" in slot and nut "B". Move shield to desired position (both sides). Retighten nuts.

Transporting

a.Lower the depth stake to its lowest position and insert the depth stake pin in the topmost hole.

b.Place shift lever indicator (fig. 10 inset A) in "F" (foward) position for transporting.

c.To start tiller movement, push down on the drive control release and squeeze the drive control lever (fig. 9). Tines will not turn.

d.Move throttle control (fig. 9) to desired speed.
