Electric Tiller
D. Assemble the Tines for Tilling
Assembling the Tines for Tilling
1. Remove the cardboard from around your
tiller’s base.
2. Slide the tines onto the axle shafts. The “D” hole
goes on the outside.
3. Make sure you’ve installed the tines properly for
tilling. Liken the tines to your fingers. When your
palm faces the ground, your fingers curl down. Stand
behind the tiller and hold your hand next to the tines.
Do the tine blades curl down, as your fingers do? If
so, they are in the tilling position. (To switch to the
cultivating position, see page 12.)
4. To secure each tine to the axle, insert a tine
retaining pin.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Before you use your MANTIS Tiller, read the Safety Rules & Warnings on pages 2-4.

Starting your MANTIS Electric Tiller is easy.

extension cord and help prevent it from becoming detached.
2. Connect the extension cord to the power cord on the tiller. (Picture 1)
3. Plug the extension cord into an outlet.
4. Pick a speed. (Picture 2)
CAUTION: This Tiller is Strong (Powerful). If you are starting the unit for the first time, the Tiller will
start quickly. Be sure to start the Tiller in the low speed (#1), until you get used to it.
