Safety

•

Accurate assembly and safe and effective use of the rototiller is the owner’s responsibility.

•

Read and follow all safety instructions.

•

Carefully follow all assembly instructions.

•

Ensure that anyone who uses the tiller must read the manual and be familiar with all controls and safety precautions.

•

Operate the tiller according to the safety instructions and recommendations outlined here.

•

Your tiller is equipped with a safety device that enables you to stop the wheels and tines in an emergency.

•

Learn how to safely control the tiller at all times.

•

Do not allow children to operate this rototiller. Keep small children away from the area being tilled. Do not allow adults to operate the tiller without proper instruction.

•

Dress appropriately when operating the tiller. Always wear sturdy footwear. Never wear sandals, sneakers or open shoes and never operate the tiller with bare feet. Do not wear loose clothing that might get caught in moving parts.

•

Carefully inspect the area to be tilled and remove all foreign objects. Do not till above underground water lines, gas lines, electric cables or pipes. Do not operate the tiller in soil with large rocks and foreign objects which can damage the equipment.

•

Disengage all clutches and leave all control levers in the neutral position before starting the engine.

•

Handle fuel with care; it is highly flammable:

− Use an approved fuel container.

− Never add fuel to a running engine or hot engine.

− Fill the fuel tank outdoors with extreme care. Never fill the fuel tank indoors.

− Replace the gasoline cap securely and clean up spilled fuel before restarting.

•

Never operate the tiller without guards, covers and hoods in place.

•

Be extremely cautious when operating in reverse. Take extra care to avoid slipping or falling, and keep hands and feet clear from the tines.

•

Use extreme caution when operating on or crossing gravel drives, walks or roads. Stay alert for hidden hazards or traffic.

•

After striking a foreign object, stop the engine, remove the wire from the spark plug, thoroughly inspect the tiller for any damage and repair the damage before restarting and operating the tiller.

•

If vegetation clogs the tines, raise the handlebars to elevate the lines and run the tiller in reverse. If this does not clean chopped vegetation from the tines, stop the engine and disconnect the spark plug wire before removing vegetation by hand.

•

The engine muffler will be hot from operation. Do not touch it with bare skin or a severe burn may result.

•

If the unit should start to vibrate abnormally, stop the engine and check immediately for the cause. Vibration is generally a sign of trouble.

•

Do not run the engine indoors; exhaust fumes are deadly.

•

Do not overload the machine capacity by attempting to fill too deep at too fast a rate.

•

Never operate the machine at high transport speeds on slippery surfaces. Look behind and use care when backing.

•

Never allow bystanders near the unit.

•

Use only attachments and accessories approved by the manufacturer of the tiller.

•

Never operate the tiller without good visibility or light.

•

Be careful when tilling in hard ground. The tines may catch in the ground and propel the tiller backwards. If this occurs, let go of the handlebars and do not restrain the machine.

Please note, this is to be done straight out of the box. Ensure no fuel or petrol mix is in the tank.

Augers and auger tips are consumable parts, and are not covered under warranty.
