IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Please read this section carefully. Operate the tiller according to the
safety instructions and recommendations outlined here and inserted
throughout the text. Anyone who uses this tiller must read the instructions and be familiar with the controls. Your tiller is equipped with a
safety device that enables you to stop the wheels and tines quickly
in an emergency. Learn how the drive safety control lever operates
and how to control the tiller at all times.
This symbol points out important safety instructions
which if not followed could endanger your personal

before attempting to operate this equipment.
• 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.
PREPARATION
• 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.

c. Fill fuel tank outdoors with extreme care. Never fill fuel
tank indoors.
d. Replace gasoline cap securely and clean up spilled fuel
before restarting.
• Never attempt to make any adjustments while the engine is
running.
OPERATION
• Do not operate the tiller under the influence of alcohol or
drugs.
• Never operate the tiller without guards, covers, and hoods in
place.
• Keep hands, feet, and clothing away from rotating parts. Keep
clear of tiller tines at all times.
• Tines rotate when tiller is engaged; tines rotate when the drive
safety control lever is pulled down. Releasing the drive safety
control lever to neutral stops 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, STOP THE ENGINE
AND DISCONNECT THE SPARK PLUG WIRE before
removing vegetation by hand.
• 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
warning of trouble.
• Do not run the engine indoors; exhaust fumes are deadly.
• Do not overload the machine capacity by attempting to till too
deep at too fast of a rate.
• Never allow bystanders near the unit.
• 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 forward. If this occurs, let go
of the handlebars and do not restrain the machine.
• Take all possible precautions when leaving the machine
unattended. Disengage all control levers, stop the engine,
wait for all moving parts to stop, and make certain guards
and shields are in place.
• When leaving the operating position for any reason:
- shut off the engine.
- wait for all moving parts to stop.

FEATURES (3365/3365B/3365CE/3365K)
The advantage of the EARTHQUAKE® BADGER™ gear drive rototiller over other front tine tillers is the exclusive
unfolding and flexible drag bar. This gives the Earthquake® Badger™ gear drive tiller its stability and versatility.
For easy transport, fold the wheels under the engine. During operation, the wheels unfold back and the drag bar folds
down. The long length between the tines and the drag bar make this the most comfortable front tine tiller on the market.

CONTROLS
DRIVE SAFETY CONTROL LEVER
Engages tines into forward; releasing returns machine to neutral.
Pulling down on the drive safety control lever engages the tines.
Releasing the drive safety control lever disengages the tines to a
neutral position.
BELT TENSION ADJUSTMENT
Proper belt tension is critical to good performance. After 30 minutes
of operation, all cables may have to be adjusted due to initial stretch.
Thereafter, check tension after every two hours of operation.
To increase belt tension:
1. Loosen upper jam nut. Turn nut up cable in 1/8” increments.
2. Tighten lower jam nut.
3. Check adjustment.
This procedure can be repeated until conduit adjustment bolts have
no more adjustment left. If no more adjustment can be made, belt
may have to be replaced.
DEPTH REGULATOR LEVER
Tilling depth is controlled by the height of the depth regulator lever.
To adjust tilling depth:
1. Remove detent pin.
2. Raise the depth regulator lever to position tines at chosen tilling
depth.
3. Align hole in depth regulator lever with hole in depth regulator
bracket and replace detent pin.

2. Remove spark plug wire from spark plug and secure.
3. With drive safety control lever in the
length of spring when in its relaxed state.
4. Pull down on drive safety control lever and measure length of
spring when compressed. Ideal length would be 1/4” shorter.
NEUTRAL position, measure
CHANGE FORWARD BELT
1. Turn off engine. Engine must be cool.
2. Remove spark plug wire from spark plug and secure.
3. Remove front belt cover.
