2.Inspect tiller before and after each use. Check for any damage that may affect operator safety or operation of tiller. Check for broken or damaged parts. Do not use tiller if damage affects safety or operation. Have damage repaired by authorized service center.

•Keep all screws and nuts tight.
•Inspect power cord often. If dam- aged, have repaired by authorized service center.
•Inspect extension cords often and replace if damaged.
4.When servicing, use only identical re- placement parts.
5.To reduce the risk of electric shock, this tiller has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other) and will require the use of a polarized extension cord. The tiller plug will fit into a polarized exten- sion cord only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the extension cord, re- verse the plug. If the plug still does not fit, obtain a correct polarized extension cord. A polarized extension cord will re- quire the use of a polarized wall outlet. This plug will fit into the polarized wall outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the wall outlet, reverse the plug. If the plug still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper wall outlet. Do not change the tiller plug, extension cord receptacle, or extension cord plug in any way.
6.Store idle tiller indoors - when not in use, tiller should be stored in dry, locked place - out of reach of children.
