Operation
WARNING!
Read, understand, and follow all
instructions and warnings posted on the machine
and in this manual before operating.
WARNING!
Be sure no one other than the operator
is standing near the tiller while starting engine or
operating the unit. Never run engine indoors or in
enclosed, poorly ventilated areas. Engine exhaust
contains carbon monoxide, an odorless and deadly
gas. Keep hands, feet, hair and loose clothing away
from any moving parts on engine and tiller.
Starting Engine
WARNING!
Be sure no one is standing in front of
the tiller while the engine is running or being
started.
Refer to the engine manual for instructions.
1.
Attach spark plug wire to spark plug. Make sure the metal
cap on the end of the spark plug is fastened securely over
the metal tip on the spark plug.
2.
Make sure that the tine clutch control is disengaged.
3.
Place the throttle control (if equipped) in the FAST position.
4.
For first time start-up, firmly press engine primer five (5)
times. For all future starts, press three (3) times. Wait about
two seconds between each press.
5.
Place left hand on gas tank. Grasp recoil starter and pull
rope out slowly until engine reaches the beginning of
its compression cycle (rope will pull slightly harder at this
point).
6.
Pull rope with a rapid, continuous, full arm stroke. Keep
a firm grip on handle. Let rope rewind slowly. Do not let
recoil starter snap back against engine. Repeat until engine
starts.
Stopping Engine
1.
Move throttle control lever (if equipped) to STOP or OFF
position. Refer to the engine manual for instructions on
stopping the engine.
2.
Disconnect spark plug wire from spark plug and ground
against the engine.
Using Your Tiller
Your tiller is designed for seed bed preparation, cultivating,
furrowing, and mulching.
Controlling Tilling and Depth Speed
By increasing the depth of the depth stake, the forward speed
of the machine is reduced and the working depth is increased.
When the depth stake is raised, the working depth of the
machine is reduced and the forward speed is increased.
The working depth of the machine may be predetermined by
setting the depth stake so that the wheels are about four inches
from the ground when the tines and depth stake are resting on
the ground. This setting will permit a working depth of about
four inches. When presetting the working depth, the handles
should be adjusted so the hand grips are a little above waist. The
tiller will be lower when the tines and depth stake penetrate the
ground.
For tilling, the depth stake must be lowered and the wheel must
be raised. See Fig. 5-1.
Figure 5-1
When tilling, leave approximately eight inches of untilled soil
between the first and second tilling paths, then make the third
path between the first and second. See Fig. 5-2.
