4 DESCRIPTION

The rotary cultivator is driven by a four-stroke en-

gine and is intended for soil cultivation in private 

gardens. The most important parts and controls of 

the rotary cultivator are described below.

4.1 Drive control (1:C)

The control is used to start the rotor for forward 

motion when the engine is running.

Control in idle mode (down) – No drive.

Control pulled in – Forward operation.

4.2 Throttle and stop (1:A)

The control determines the engine’s rpm and has 

start and stop positions.
The throttle control determines the speed and is 

used to stop the engine.
Stop: Control in the rear position.
Idle: Control 1 cm in front of rear position.
Full throttle and start: Control in the front position.

4.3 Handle (1:B)

The handle has two handgrips that are used to op-

erate the machine over the area to be cultivated.

4.4 Fuel cap (1:K)

Unscrew the fuel cap to fill with petrol. The fuel 

cap must always be closed during operation.

4.5 Protective grille (1:F)

The protective grille must always be installed dur-

ing operation. There are surfaces that become ex-

tremely hot under the protective grille that risk 

causing personal injury if touched.

4.6 Oil filler/drain (1:J)

Always check the oil level before start-

ing the engine.

Plug for oil filler and checking the oil level.
To drain the oil, the machine must be tilted so that 

the oil runs out from the same hole.

4.7 Auxiliary wheel (1:H)

The auxiliary wheel is designed to facilitate trans-

portation of the machine. The auxiliary wheel must 

be removed before the machine is used for rotary 

cultivation.
Remove the auxiliary wheel as follows:
1. Remove the wing nut (3:S).
2. Remove the auxiliary wheel with strut.
3. Reassemble in the reverse order.

4.8 Gearbox (1:M)

The gearbox becomes extremely hot 

during operation. Risk of burn injuries.

4.9 Rotors (1:N)

Nobody must be close to the dangerous 

rotors during operation.

The rotors are made of special steel and work 

the soil at the same time as the machine is pro-

pelled forwards. 

4.10Starter handle (1:E)

Handle for starting the engine.

4.11Depth skid (1:L).

The task of the depth skid is to keep the machine 

stable so that the soil can be cultivated.
The depth skid has three positions. Shifting takes 

place as follows:
1. Pull out the locking pin (4:T).
2. Pull out the depth skid and reinstall in the de-

sired position.

3. Reinstall the locking pin.
