OPERATION

TURNING

• Release the drive control bar.

• Move throttle control to “SLOW” position.

• Place shift lever indicator in “F” (forward) position. Tines

will not turn.

• Lift handle to raise tines out of ground.

• Swing the handle in the opposite direction you wish to

turn, being careful to keep feet and legs away from tines.

• When you have completed your turn-around, release the

drive control bar and lower handle. Place shift lever in

till position and move throttle control to desired speed.

To begin tilling, hold drive control bar against the handle.

OUTER SIDE SHIELDS (See Fig. 11)

The back edges of the outer side shields are slotted so that

the shields can be raised for deep tilling and lowered for

shallow tilling to protect small plants from being buried.

Loosen nut “A” in slot and nut “B”. Move shield to desired

position (both sides). Retighten nuts.

TO TRANSPORT

CAUTION: Before lifting or transport-

ing, allow tiller engine and muffler to

cool. Disconnect spark plug wire. Drain

gasoline from fuel tank.

AROUND THE YARD

• Release the depth stake pin. Move the depth stake

down to the top hole for transporting the tiller. Place

depth stake pin in hole of depth stake to lock in position.

This prevents tines from scuffing the ground.

• Place shift lever indicator in “F” (forward) position for

transporting.

• Hold the drive control bar against the handle to start tiller

movement. Tines will not turn.

• Move throttle control to desired speed.

AROUND TOWN

• Disconnect spark plug wire.

• Drain fuel tank.

• Transport in upright position to prevent oil leakage.

OIL

FILL

FIG. 12

ADD GASOLINE

• Fill fuel tank. Use fresh, clean, regular unleaded

gasoline. (Use of leaded gasoline will increase carbon

and lead oxide deposits and reduce valve life.)

IMPORTANT: WHEN OPERATING IN TEMPERATURES

BELOW 32°F (0°C), USE FRESH, CLEAN, WINTER GRADE

GASOLINE TO HELP INSURE GOOD COLD WEATHER

STARTING.

WARNING: Experience indicates that alcohol blended fuels

(called gasohol or using ethanol or methanol) can attract

moisture which leads to separation and formation of acids

during storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel system of

an engine while in storage. To avoid engine problems, the

fuel system should be emptied before storage of 30 days

or longer. Drain the gas tank, start the engine and let it run

until the fuel lines and carburetor are empty. Use fresh fuel

next season. See Storage section of this manual for

additional information. Never use engine or carburetor

cleaner products in the fuel tank or permanent damage may

occur.

CAUTION: Fill to within 1/2 inch of top

of fuel tank to prevent spills and to allow

for fuel expansion. If gasoline is acci-

dentally spilled, move machine away

from area of spill. Avoid creating any

source of ignition until gasoline vapors

have disappeared.

Do not overfill. Wipe off any spilled oil

or fuel. Do not store, spill or use gaso-

line near an open flame.

BEFORE STARTING ENGINE

IMPORTANT: BE VERY CAREFUL NOT TO ALLOW DIRT

TO ENTER THE ENGINE WHEN CHECKING OR ADDING

OIL OR FUEL. USE CLEAN OIL AND FUEL AND STORE

IN APPROVED, CLEAN, COVERED CONTAINERS. USE

CLEAN FILL FUNNELS.

CHECK ENGINE OIL LEVEL (See Fig.12)

• The engine in your unit has been shipped, from the

factory, already filled with SAE 30 summer weight oil.

• With engine level, clean area around oil filler plug and

remove plug.

• Engine oil should be to point of overflowing when engine

is level. For approximate capacity see “PRODUCT

SPECIFICATIONS” on page 3 of this manual. All oil

must meet A.P.I. Service Classification SF-SJ.

• Reinstall engine oil cap and tighten.

• For cold weather operation you should change oil for

easier starting (See oil viscosity chart in the Customer

Responsibilities section of this manual).

• To change engine oil, see the Customer Responsibilities

section in this manual.

TO START ENGINE (See Fig. 13)

CAUTION: Keep drive control bar in

“DISENGAGED” position when starting

engine.

When starting engine for the first time or if engine has run out

of fuel, it will take extra pulls of the recoil starter to move fuel

from the tank to the engine.

• Make sure spark plug wire is properly connected.

• Move shift lever indicator to “N” (neutral) position.
