Operating Techniques
1. The tilling width of the cultivator is approximately 165 mm (6.5 in.).
Place cultivator in area to be tilled, hold unit firmly with left hand on
front grip and right hand on rear grip and gradually engage throttle
trigger. Guide the cultivator allowing the tines to pull forward. The
soil hardness will control tilling speed.
