Reverse

a.Release the drive control bar (fig. 10).

b.Move throttle control (fig. 10) to "SLOW" speed

c.Place shift lever indicator (fig. 11 -inset A) in the "R" (reverse) position.

d.Do not stand directly behind tiller.

e.Hold the drive control bar against the handle (fig. 10) to start tiller movement. 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 bar (fig. 10) is released.

b.Move shift lever indicator (fig. 11 -inset A) to "N" (Neutral) position.

c.To stop engine, move throttle control (fig. 10) to "STOP" position.

Turning

a.Release the drive controlbar (fig. 10).

b.Move throttle control (fig. 10) to "SLOW" position.

c.Place shift lever indicator (fig. 11 - inset A) in "F" (forward) position. Tines will not turn.

d.Lift handle to raise tines out of the ground (fig. 10)

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 "T" (tilling) position and move throttle control to desired speed. To begin tilling, hold drive control bar against the handle.

Outer side shields

The back of the outer side shields (fig. 10) 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. 11 inset A) in "F" (foward) position for transporting.

c.Hold the drive control bar against the handle (fig. 10) to start tiller movement. Tines will not turn.

d.Move throttle control (fig. 10) to desired speed.
