OPERATION

1.     Make sure the rear tine tiller is on a flat, level surface.

ADD OIL TO ENGINE

3.     Using a funnel, add oil up to the 

FULL

 mark on the dipstick. 

(See engine manual for oil capacity, oil recommendation, and 
location of fill cap.)

The engine is shipped without oil. Do not start the 
engine before adding oil. Refer to your engine manual 
for the proper oil gauge to use.

Gasoline is highly flammable and explosive. You can 
be burned or seriously injured when handling fuel. 
Use extreme care when handling gasoline.

Fill the fuel tank outdoors, never indoors. Gasoline 
vapors can ignite if they collect inside an enclosure. 
Explosion can result.

IMPORTANT: DO NOT OVERFILL!

This equipment and/or its engine may include 
evaporative emissions control system components, 
required to meet EPA and/or CARB regulations, that 
will only function properly when the fuel tank has 
been filled to the recommended level. Overfilling 
may cause permanent damage to evaporative 
emissions control system components. Filling to the 
recommended level ensures a vapor gap required to 
allow for fuel expansion. Pay close attention while 
filling the fuel tank to ensure that the recommended 
fuel level inside the tank is not exceeded. Use a 
portable gasoline container with an appropriately 
sized dispensing spout when filling the tank. Do not 
use a funnel or other device that obstructs the view 
of the tank filling process.

DO NOT OVERFILL. Check engine oil level daily and 
add as needed.

1.     The engine must be off and allowed to cool at least two minutes 

before adding fuel.

2.     Remove the fuel filler cap and fill the tank. (See engine manual 

for fuel capacity, fuel recommendation, and location of fuel cap.)

ADD GASOLINE TO ENGINE

2.     Remove the oil fill cap/dipstick 

to add oil.

3.     Reinstall the fuel cap and tighten. Always clean up spilled fuel.

If the engine is hot, 
closing the choke is not 
necessary.
