COMBINATION CULTIVATING, TILLING, ROTARY HOEING
1. The Atom Tiller is very easy and simple to use. It only
takes a few minutes to become an efficient user.
2. Thoroughly inspect the area where the tiller is to be
used and remove all long grass, stones, sticks, wires
and other foreign objects.
3. Adjust tine depth (Fig. 15(a)(b). Try the third hole closest
to operator.
4. Start motor.
5. With both arms fully extended downwards, (Fig. 15C),
hold both handle grips firmly. With the engine running,
pull the throttle trigger full on after depressing safety
interlock. Engine must run at three quarter to full speed
for best tilling results.
6. As tilling action begins, the tines dig and move the tiller
forward.

NOTE
: to reduce “Forward Pull” of tiller, adjust wheel
arm for shallow depth.
8. Continue at a moderate pace until you are familiar with
the controls and handling of the Atom Tiller.
NOTE

can pull it back towards you and then allow the unit to
move forward again. You can repeat this procedure
over the area you are cultivating. Always have a firm
footing.
