Section 2: Assembly

IMPORTANT: Check gear oil level in both transmissions after the first 2 hours of new tiller operation, then every 30 operating hours thereafter. See Section 5 for instructions.

STEP 7: Add Motor Oil to Engine

1.Before adding motor oil, park the tiller on level ground. Level the engine by placing a sturdy block under the tines or the tines depth regulator bar.

2.Refer to the Engine Owner’s Manual provided with your tiller for detailed infor- mation on how to add motor oil and for motor oil specifications.

IMPORTANT: One 26 oz. bottle of motor oil is included with your tiller. Check the oil level as instructed in the Engine Owner’s Manual provided with your tiller BEFORE pouring the full amount of the bottle into the engine.

IMPORTANT:

•Change engine oil after first 2 hours of new operation.

•Check engine oil level every 5 hours of operation or each use.

STEP 8: Attach Engine Throttle Lever and Cable

For shipping purposes, the throttle cable, together with the throttle lever, is wound around the engine. Carefully unwind the cable. If the throttle control label is covered with a clear protective coating, peel it off.

WARNING

To avoid electric shock from a short circuit (electric start tillers only), never allow the throttle cable to touch the battery. Route cable below the battery, on the outside of the battery holder.

To attach the throttle lever and cable:

1.Run the throttle cable up the inside edge of the right handlebar and position the lever as shown in Figure 2-14.

2.From the outside of the handlebar, insert the curved head screw (A, Figure 2- 14), through the handlebar and the center hole in the throttle lever mounting bracket.

3.Loosely install the flanged lock nut and move the throttle lever back to the STOP position.

4.From the lever side of the bracket,

thread a pan head screw (B, Figure 2-14) through the small hole in the throttle lever bracket and into the handlebar. Tighten the screw securely.

5.Securely tighten both the flanged lock nut and the curved head screw.

6.Use two plastic ties to secure the throttle cable to the right handlebar in two places (Figure 2-15). Loop each tie around the handlebar and cable (serrated side faces in) and pull the ties tight. Trim the ends.

STEP 9: Adjust Air Pressure in Tires

For shipping purposes, the tires may be overinflated. Check the air pressure in each tire and adjust them to between 10 and 20 pounds per square inch. You must inflate each tire to equal air pressures to prevent the tiller from pulling to one side.

Assembly is complete for recoil start tillers. See Assembling The Electric Start System if you own an electric start tiller; otherwise, refer to Section 3, Controls for information on tiller controls.
