the controls quickly.

• Never allow children to operate the equipment. Never
allow adults to operate the equipment without proper
instruction.

• Keep the area of operation clear of all persons, particu­iariy small children, and pets.

PREPARATION

• Thoroughly inspect the area where the equipment is to
be used and remove all foreign objects.

• Disengage ail dutches and shift into neutral before

starting the engine (motor).

• Do not operate the equipment without wearing ad

equate outer garments. Wear footwear that will im
prove footing on slippery surfaces.

• Handle fuel with care; it is highly flammable.

• Use an approved fuel container.

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

• Fill fuel tank outdoors with extreme care. Never fill fuel

tank indoors.

• Replace gasoline cap securely and clean up spilled

fuel before restarting.

• Use extension cords and receptacles as specified by

the manufacturer for all units with electric drive motors
or electric starting motors.

• Never attempt to make any adjustments while the
engine (motor) is running (except where specifically
recommended by manufacturer).

OPERATION

Do not put hands or feet near or under rotating parts.
Exercise extreme caution when operating on or cross

ing gravel drives, walks, or roads. Stay alert for hidden
hazards or traffic. Do not carry passengers.

After striking a foreign object, stop the engine (motor),
remove the wire from the spark plug, thoroughly in
spect the tiller for any damage, and repair the damage
before restarting and operating the tiller.

Exercise caution to avoid slipping or falling.
If the unit should start to vibrate abnormally, stop the

engine (motor) and check immediately for the cause.
Vibration is generally a warning of trouble.

Stop the engine (motor) when leaving the operating
position.

Take all possible precautions when leaving the ma
chine unattended. Disengage the tines, shift into
neutral, and stop the engine.

Before cleaning, repairing, or inspecting, shut off the
engine and make certain all moving parts have stopped.
Disconnect the spark plug wire, and keep the wire
away from the plug to prevent accidental starting.
Disconnect the cord on electric motors.

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

Never operate the tiller without proper guards, plates,
or other safety protective devices in place.

Keep child-r-'. am p- tr- away.
Do not overload the idchine capacity by attempting to

till too (J“ep a> too f,i I a rate.

surfac“^ 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 forward. If this
occurs, let go of the handlebars and do not restrain the
machine.

MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE

• Keep machine, attachments, and accessories in safe
working condition.

• Check shear pins, engine mounting bolts, and other
bolts at frequent intervals for proper tightness to be
sure the equipment is in safe working condition.

• Never store the machine with fuel in the fuel tank inside
a building where ignition sources are present, such as
hot water and space heaters, clothes dryers, and the
like. Allow the engine to cool before storing in any
enclosure.

IMPORTANT: BE VERY CAREFUL NOT TO ALLOW DIRT

TO ENTER THE ENGINE WHEN CHECKING OR ADDING
OIL OR FUEL. USE CLEAN OIL AND FUEL AND STORE

IN APPROVED, CLEAN, COVERED CONTAINERS. USE

CLEAN FILL FUNNELS.

ADD GASOLINE

• Fill fuel tank. Use fresh, clean, regular unleaded
gasoline. (Use of leaded gasoline will increase carbon
and lead oxide deposits and reduce valve life.)

IMPORTANT: WHEN OPERATING IN TEMPERATURES

BELOW 32°F (0°C), USE FRESH, CLEAN, WINTER GRADE
GASOLINE TO HELP INSURE GOOD COLD WEATHER
STARTING.

WARNING; Experience indicates that alcohol blended
fuels (called gasohol or using ethanol or methanol) can
attract moisture which leads to separation and formation of
acids during storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel
system of an engine while in storage. To avoid engine

problems, the fuel system should be emptied before
storage of 30 days or longer. Drain the gas tank, start the

engine and let it run until the fuel lines and carburetor are
empty. Use fresh fuel next season. See Storage section
of this manual for additional information. Never use engine
orcarburetorcleanerproducts in the fuel tank or permanent
damage may occur.

CAUTION: Fill to within 1/2 inch of top
of fuel tank to prevent spills and to

Soilcondiiionsare important for proper tilling. Tines will

not readily penetrate dry, hard soil which may contrib

tiller. Hard soil should be moistened before tilling;
however, extremely wet soil will “ball-up” or clump
during tilling. Wait until the soil is less wet in order to
achieve the best results. When tilling in the fall, remove
vines and long grass to prevent them from wrapping
around the tine shaft and slowing your tilling operation.

You will find tilling much easier if you leave a row
untilled between passes. Then go back between tilled
rows. (See Fig. 14) There are two reasons for doing
this. First, wide turns are much easierto negotiate than
about-faces. Second, the tiller won’t be pulling itself,
and you, toward the row next to it.

Do not lean on handle. This takes weight off the wheels
and reduces traction. To get through a really tough
