Slide the wheel fully inward on the wheel shaft. Reinstall the wheel drive
pin through the wheel shaft only (not through the wheel hub). See Contents
of Carton. The wheel should now spin freely (freewheel) on the wheel shaft.
Repeat with the other wheel.

Use the handlebar to roll the tiller to a flat area.
NOTE:
Before starting the engine, the wheels must be placed in the WHEEL
DRIVE position (pins through wheel hubs and wheel shaft).
Set-Up
Tire Pressure
Check the air pressure with a tire gauge. Deflate or inflate the tires equally to
between 15 and 20 PSI.
NOTE:
Be sure that both tires are inflated equally or the tiller will pull to one
side.

WARNING
Use extreme care when handling gasoline. Gasoline is extremely
flammable and the vapors are explosive. Never fuel the machine indoors or
while the engine is hot or running. Extinguish cigarettes, cigars, pipes and
any other sources of ignition.
Service the engine with gasoline and oil as instructed in the Engine Operator’s Manual
packed separately with your tiller. Read the instructions carefully.
