HOW TO USE YOUR
TILLER
A. Forward speeds: First and second speeds are
generally used for tilling sod or soil which has not been tilled before. Third and fourth speeds are usually used for fine tilling or cultivating. The fifth speed is for pulverizing soil or for transporting the tiller. The soil conditions in your area will determine the speed you will want to use.
IMPORTANT
Do not shift gears unless the engine
is running. If the engine should stall while in gear, you must proceed as follows;
1. ) Disconnect and ground the spark plug wire against the engine.
2. ) Move tine and wheel engagement levers to the disengaged position.
3. ) Pull the recoil starter rope, and at the same time pull back on gear shift lever. Pull the rope out as many times as it takes to move the gear shift lever into neutrai (N) position. Do Not force shift lever back into neutral at any time.
4. ) Move the gear shift lever through the for
ward speeds, neutral and reverse. Readjust
control rod if necessary.
B. Neutral (N): The neutral detent on the handle
panel is used when starting and stopping the tiller and going from a forward speed to reverse.
C. Reverse (R) Gear; The reverse gear is a dead-
man type. If you put the tiller into reverse to back up or to unclog the tines, and you let go of gear shift lever, the reverse motion will stop. Reverse will only work when you pull the gear shift lever back and hold it in that position.
Raise the handles and lift the tines out of the
ground before putting the tiller in reverse gear.
I WARNING ^
When operating the tiller for the first time, use the depth bar setting that gives 1 inch of tilling depth
(second slot from the bottom).
Refer to figure 25. Use first speed only.
Your tiller has a variable speed pulley which allows you to change gears, First (1) through Fifth (5), without stopping. The gear shift le>er is located on the top center of handle panel. There are Five (5) forward speeds. Neutral (N and Reverse (R).
A
CAUTION
Placing the tiller in reverse with the tines in the ground will cause pre mature wear of the reversing disc.
TILLING
Tilling depth is controiled by the depth bar which
can be adjusted to five different settings. See figure 25. Adjust the side shields as shown in
figure 25 as you adjust the depth bar. Be certain spark plug wire is disconnected and grounded against the engine.
1. When using the tiller for the first time, use the second adjustment slot from the bottom (1 " of tilling depth). See figure 25.
12
2. When breaking up sod and for shallow cultiva tion, use the setting which gives 1" of tilling depth (second slot from the bottom). Place the side shields in their lowest position. For
further depth, raise the depth bar and side
shields and make one or two more passes over the area.
3. When tilling loose soil, depth bar may be raised to the top slot to give the deepest till ing depth. Raise the side shields to their highest position.
4. To transport tiller, lower the depth bar (use bottom adjustment slot).
\ WARNING j
Engage wheel drive before engaging the tine engagement lever.
NOTE
To transport tiller, do not engage the tine engagement lever. Engage the wheels only.
For best results, it is recommended the garden be
tilled twice (lengthwise, then widthwise) to
pulverize the soil.

MAINTENANCE
WARNING
(S)
Disconnect the spark plug wire and ground it against the engine before performing any repairs or main tenance.
^ IMPORTANT
If for any reason the tines are re moved from the tiller, be certain the
tines are reassembled so that the
sharp edge of the tines enter the soil first. Refer to item number one under “Operation.”
ENGINE OIL
After the first two hours of operating a new engine, drain the oil from the crankcase while the engine is still hot and refill the crankcase with new oil; thereafter change the oil after every 25 hours of operation.
To avoid spilling gasoline on your lawn or driveway, plan to change the oil when the gasoline tank and carburetor are empty.
To change the oil, refer to the separate engine manual.
14
Check oil level every eight hours of operation. Be sure level is maintained full to point of overflow ing.
AIR CLEANER
