Here’s Another Way to Start your REDMAX
Tiller/Cultivator
If you follow the steps above and your engine still
won’t start, try this:
1. Push the switch to “start.”
2. Move the choke lever to open the choke.
3. Press the plastic bubble a few times.
4. Give the starter cord a few short, quick pulls. The
engine should start and run.
5. If the engine does not start, then move the choke
lever to close the choke. Pull the starter cord four
to five times. The engine should sputter or cough.
6. After the engine sputters, push the choke button in.
Then pull the starter cord. The engine should start
and run.
7. If the engine still does not start, repeat steps 2
through 6.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Never use starting fluids. Starting fluids will cause
permanent engine damage. Using them will void
the warranty.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Before you use your REDMAX Tiller/Cultivator,
read the Safety Rules & Warnings on pages 4-7.

Now You’re ready to Use Your REDMAX
Tiller/Cultivator.
If you’ve seen other Tiller/Cultivators, your REDMAX
Tiller/Cultivator may surprise you. It tills best when you
pull it backward! You see, when you pull your
REDMAX Tiller/Cultivator backward, you give extra
resistance to the tines, so they dig deeper.
What’s more when you go backward, you erase your
footprints, So your soil stays light and fluffy. With other
Tiller/Cultivators, by contrast, you walk right over the
soil you’ve just cultivated, packing it down, so it’s less
plantable.
Run Your REDMAX Tiller/Cultivator like a Vacuum
Cleaner.
Place your Tiller/Cultivator at the head of the row or
area you want to cultivate. Start it up. Then use an easy
rocking motion. First, pull your Tiller/Cultivator
backward. Then use an easy rocking motion. Again, pull
your Tiller/Cultivator backward. Then, let it move
forward just a little bit. Then pull it backward again.
This will help you cultivate deeper.
Keep repeating these steps until you’ve tilled an entire
row. Start again on the next row. It’s much like running a
vacuum cleaner! (Picture 2)
You Can Even Control Depth.
For Deeper Cultivating:
Move your Tiller/Cultivator slowly back and forth, as
you would a vacuum cleaner. Work the same area over
and over until you’ve dug to your desired depth.
For Shallow Cultivating:
Switch the tines to the cultivating position. (See page 16
to learn how.) Then move your Tiller/Cultivator quickly
over your soil surface.
For Big Weeds or Tough Roots:
Let your Tiller/Cultivator rock back and forth over the
tough spot, until the tines slice through the weed or root.
