OPERATION
WARNING:
Keep hands and feet away from the rotating tines. Rotat-
ing tines will cause serious personal injury.
NOTE: The tines of the tiller may rotate when the engine is
started.
Move the tiller to the work area before starting the
engine.
With the tiller on flat level ground, start the engine of the
power head. Refer to the operator’s manual of your power
head.
Hold the handles firmly, depress the throttle trigger to
increase the engine speed to a moderate speed, then
lower the tiller so the tines can make contact with the
ground.
Pull the tiller carefully toward you while it is digging into
the soil’s surface.
NOTE: Pulling the tiller carefully toward you while it is
digging into the soil will reduce your effort and make the
tilling easier.
WARNING:
To avoid personal injury, never carry the tiller while the
engine is running. Move the tiller to the work area before
starting the engine.
WARNING:
After extended periods of use, the tiller gearbox may
become hot. To avoid burns, do not touch the gearbox
until it has had time to cool down.
TINE POSITION
See Figure 5.
Tine blades are marked with the corresponding letters (A,
B, C, and D).
NOTE: All four tines on this unit are different and must be
installed correctly or the tiller will not function properly. When
the tines are properly mounted, the angled portion of the tine
blade should enter the soil first, not the straight portions.

CAUTION:
Wear heavy gloves when installing, removing, or adjust-
ing the tiller tines. With wear, the tiller tines may become
sharper.
WARNING:
Stop the engine and disconnect the spark plug wire or
disconnect from power supply before adjusting the tiller
tines.
