Operation
Operation
Note:
Determine the left and right sides of the
machine from the normal operating position.
Controls
Throttle-Choke Lever
Located on the left side of the handle bar.
The lever is used to control engine speed. Moving
the throttle to the full forward (Choke) position will
place the lever in the choke position. The choke aids
in starting a cold engine. Moving the throttle control
forward will increase engine speed and moving it to
the rear will decrease engine speed.
The throttle-choke control also includes an engine
kill position. Moving the lever into the full rearward
(Off) position will kill the engine.
Recoil Starter
Located on the engine.
Pull the recoil starter handle to start the engine.
Fuel Shut-Off Valve
Located below the fuel tank.
The fuel shut-off valve shuts off the flow of fuel
when the machine will not be used for a few days,
when parking inside a building, and during transport
to and from the job.
Align valve with the fuel line to open. Rotate 90° to
close.
Self-Propel Drive Bail
The self-propel drive bail, located under the handle,
controls the forward and reverse motion of the
machine.
When the self-propel drive bail is squeezed against
the handle, the unit ground speed will change based
on the distance between the bail and the handle.
When the bail is released, the unit will stop moving.
Important:
The tines are rotating when the
self-propel drive bail is moved out of the neutral
position.

Tine Ground Engagement Lever
Keep hands and feet away from the tines. Make
sure the tine area is clear of any obstructions
before lowering it.
Located under the control console.
The tine ground engagement lever lifts the rear
wheels, causing the rear of the machine to be
supported on the aerating tines.
Push the lever down to lift the rear wheels and lower
the tines into the ground. Pull up on the lever to
lower the wheels and raise the tines; significant effort
may be required if extra optional weights have been
added.
Pre-Start
Fill fuel tank on level ground. See Fuel
Recommendations in the Specifications section for
additional gasoline information.
Do Not add oil to gasoline.
Do Not overfill fuel tank. Fill the fuel tank to the
bottom of the filler neck. The empty space in the
tank allows gasoline to expand. Overfilling may result
in fuel leakage or damage to the engine or emission
system.
Make sure you understand the controls, their
locations, their functions, and their safety
requirements.
