KL480 Tiller Safety Procedures
• Know where and how deep any gas, water, and electrical lines are buried. Avoid operating in questionable
areas.
• Contact with rotating tines or other moving parts may cause personal injury. Keep hands and feet away.
• Prior to tilling, clear the work area of any rocks, branches, string, or other debris that may clog the tiller. If any
debris becomes jammed in the tiller, engage the power unit’s parking brake, shut off the engine, and remove
the ignition key before attempting to remove debris.
• Tiller tines are sharp. Wear leather gloves when working with tiller tines.
•
Shut off the PTO to stop the tiller tines whenever the tiller is lifted out of the ground.
