For breaking soil or deep tilling, allow the tines to pull the tiller forward to the end of your arm’s reach,
then firmly pull the tiller back towards you. By repeatedly allowing the tiller to move forward and then
pulling back to you, the tiller will be most effective.
If the tiller digs deep enough to stay in one spot, gently rock the tiller side to side to start the tiller
moving forward again.
For preparing seed beds, we recommend using one of the tilling patterns shown in Fig. 5.
Tilling Pattern A – Make two passes over area to be tilled, the second at a right angle to the first.
Tilling Pattern B – Make two passes over area to be tilled, the second overlapping the first.
To prevent tripping take particular care when moving backwards and when pulling the tiller.
Always let the tines rotate at top speed; do not work in such a way as to overload the appliance.
Never pass the tiller over the extension cord; make sure it is always in a safe position behind your back.
When working on inclines always stand diagonally to the incline in a sturdy, safe stance. Do not work
on extremely steep slopes.
Transport
Caution! Before transporting the appliance, switch off the motor and unplug it.
The tines and the unit may be damaged even if you move the appliance with the motor switched off, e.g.
over solid ground. Prevent the tines from touching the ground by carrying the appliance by its guide bar.
Cleaning tines and foreign objects
During operation, a stone or root could become lodged in the tines, or tall grass or weeds may become
wrapped around the tine shaft.
To clear the tines, release the trigger lever. Unplug the tillter, and dislodge or remove any obstacles from
the tines or tine shaft.
To ease removal of tall grass or weeds that are wrapped around the tine shaft, remove one or more of the
tines from the tine shaft. See tine removal and Installation in this manual.
