How to Switch From Tilling to Cultivating Position

1.Make sure your Tiller/Cultivator is off.

2.Remove the retaining pins from the tines.

3.Remove the tines from the axle.

4.Place the right-side tine onto the left-side axle. Place the left side tine onto the right-side axle. The “D” hole should be to the outside.

5.Here is how to make sure you’ve installed the tines properly. Stand behind the Tiller/Cultivator and hold your hand, palm up, next to the tines. Do the tine points curl up, as your fingers do? If so, they are in the correct cultivating position.

6.Reinsert the pins.

WARNING DANGER

IF YOUR TINES GET JAMMED OR ENTANGLED,

SHUT OFF THE ENGINE AT ONCE.

REMOVE THE OBSTRUCTION WHILE THE

ENGINE IS OFF.

NEVER TRY TO REMOVE AN OBSTRUCTION

WHILE THE ENGINE IS RUNNING. SERIOUS

INJURY CAN RESULT.

Now You’re Ready to Cultivate or Weed.

Guide your Tiller/Cultivator where you want to weed and start it up. Pull your Tiller/Cultivator backward slowly, then let it move forward a bit, in a gentle rocking motion. Watch it slice, shred, and bury those weeds!

Got tough weeds? Lighten your pressure on the throttle to slow your Tiller/Cultivator down. Then work back and forth until your Tiller/Cultivator chops up the weeds. It’s easy and effective!

Remember, any Tiller/Cultivator will tangle in tall grass, stringy vines, or super-big weeds. So, if you have a “backyard jungle,” first use a knife, pruner, or brush cutter to chop up the overgrowth. If the tines become tangled anyway, turn the engine off completely before trying to clear them.

Tilling Position

Tine teeth point in the same direction as the rotation of the tine; or toward the front of the Tiller/Cultivator, away from the operator.

Cultivating Position

Tine teeth point in the opposite direction as the rotation of the tine. Tines point toward the back of the Tiller/Cultivator, or toward the operator.
