LET'S BEGIN
• With the box upright, open the box and remove the
tine box and the loose parts that are at the top of the
tiller box. Do not remove any other parts in the box.
• Lay the box on one side and open the bottom flaps.
• Return the box to an upright position (as shown) and
pull the box straight up.
• Leave the engine and throttle handle in the cradle to
assist in the assembly.
• Lay everything out so you can easily identify the
parts (see parts image and list on page 6).

• Lay the handle parts within easy
reach. You'll need one of the
handle clamps (T7) and one of
the lower handles (T3). Note that
the lower handles have a short
leg on one end.
• Fit the handle clamp along the
outside of the short leg. Line
up the holes on the clamp and
the leg.
• Take the lower handles that
you've just put together.
Slide them into the two
recessed channels.
• Make sure you insert them
from the rear of the tiller
(gasoline tank faces away
from the operator)... so
that the bolt fits along the
back of the housing.

• Choose one of the two 3-inch
bolts (T11). Slide it through the
first set of holes — near the
elbow where the lower handle
curves. (Pictures 2 & 3)
• Now slide the other lower
handle onto the 3-inch bolt. Fit
the other clamp onto the other
handle's short leg. Add a lock
nut (T14) and tighten finger tight.
