HANDLING TIPS

• Adjust the handlebar height to a comfortable position (waist height
for normal tilling).
• The drag bar should always be used when tilling. It enables you to
compensate for the hardness of the soil. The ideal height of the drag
bar will depend on the type of soil being tilled and soil conditions at
the time of tilling. In general, however, the drag bar should be
adjusted so that the tiller is tilted slightly backward.
• If the machine jerks forward while tilling, press down on the
handlebars. This will cause the drag bar to dig more deeply into the
soil.
• If tines dig in but the machine will not move forward, move the
handlebars from side to side.
• Stop the tines before crossing gravel drives, walks, or roads. Stay
alert for hidden hazards or traffic.
• Stop the engine immediately if the tiller vibrates abnormally. Check
the tiller for damage or loose parts, and repair or replace them before
using the tiller again. Vibration is usually a sign of trouble.
