Shutting Down

To stop the engine at any time, turn engine ON/OFF switch to
the off position. To stop wheels and tines at any time, release
drive safety control levers to neutral position.
Tilling
F
1. Adjust the depth regulator lever to desired tilling depth.
WARNING
NOTE: Raise depth regulator lever up one hole at a time, testing
tiller operation after each raise. Raising depth regulator lever
too high can result in loss of control of tiller!
2. Move the throttle control to fast.
3. Place the tiller in forward by pushing down on the drive
safety control lever (FORWARD)--this will engage the wheels
and tines.
NOTE: You can slow the tiller’s forward advance at any time by
putting slight downward pressure on the handlebars. You can
stop the tiller by releasing the drive safety control levers to the
neutral position.
