beds. The tiller can also dig small holes for
planting saplings or potted plants.
Tips
Move the application to the work area prior to
starting the motor.
Hold the application firmly while switch on.
The tines will pull the tiller forward during
operation, press the guide bar to lower the
tines slowly.
By pulling tiller back towards yourself, the
tines will dig deeper and more aggressively.
For breaking sod or deep tilling, allow the tines
to pull the tiller forward to the end of your
arm’s reach, then firmly pull the tiller back
towards you. By repeatedly allowing the tiller
to move forward and then pulling back to you,
the tiller will be most effective.
If the tiller digs deep enough to stay in one
spot, gently rock the tiller side to side to start
the tiller moving forward again.
For preparing seed bed, we recommend using
one of the tilling patterns shown in Fig. 5.
Tilling Pattern A – Make two passes over area
to be tilled, the second at a right angle to the
first.
Tilling Pattern B – Make two passes over area
to be tilled, the second overlapping the first.
To prevent tripping take particular care when
moving backwards and when pulling the tiller.
Always let the tines rotates at top speed; do
not work in such a way as to overload the
appliance.
Never pass the tiller over the extension cord;
make sure it is always in a safe position
behind your back.
When working on inclines always stand
diagonally to the incline in a sturdy, safe
stance. Do not work on extremely steep
slopes.
Transport
Caution! Before transporting the appliance,
switch off the motor.
The tines and the unit maybe damaged even if
you move the appliance with the motor switched
off, e.g. over solid ground. Prevent the tines from
touching the ground by carrying out the appliance
by its guide bar, or with the additional wheels in
correct transport position.
Clearing tines of foreign objects
During operation, a stone or root could become
lodged in the tines, or tall grass or weeds may
become wrapped around the tine shaft.
To clear the tines, release the trigger lever.
Unplug the tiller, and dislodge or remove any
obstacles from the tines or tine shaft.
To ease removal of tall grass or weeds that are
wrapped around the tine shaft, remove one or
more of the tines from the tine shaft. See Tine
Removal and Installation in the manual.
Maintenance and Storage
Before carrying out any maintenance operations,
cut off the electric power supply by disconnecting
the plug from the extension cable.
Prior to each time the application is
used
Check the connecting cable for signs of
damage or ageing. Replace the cable if it is
cracked, split or damaged.
Check the lubricant of gearing case after
every use or 40 hours operation. Replace the
lubricant when necessary.
Check the condition of the cutting tines, and
ensure that all threaded connections are
securely tightened.
If the tines are blunt, take it to a specialist
workshop for repair if necessary.
Once per season
Lubricate the tines and shaft.
At the end of the season, have the application
checked and serviced in a specialist
workshop.
Cleaning
Caution! Always clean the application after use.
