S t o r a g e
1. Clean dirt, grass and other materials from the entire
machine.
2. Wipe the tines with oil or spray them with WD-40,
to prevent rusting.
3. Check the grease level in the gear housing, as
described on page 13.
4. Order new parts to replace any that are badly worn
or broken. Contact your local authorized MANTIS
dealer.
5. Store your tiller in a clean, dry place. You can store
with the handles in an extended position (Picture 3) or
folded down. (Picture 4)
6. To fold down the handles, follow these easy steps:
Loosen the handle knobs (#12), fold the handles
forward or back. (Picture 4) Tighten knob securely.
Your handles are now folded and ready to store in a
smaller area.

IMPORTANT NOTE:
Handles can fold back or forward. When folding
handles back, as show in picture #4, be careful not
to damage the 3-speed switch.

A. How to Check the Grease Level Inside the Worm Gear Housing
When we built your MANTIS Electric Tiller, we
lubricated the worm gear housing thoroughly.
It is imperative that you inspect the grease level once
a year. Simply remove the cover plate on the worm
gear housing. (Picture 1) Then check to make sure the
grease comes almost to the top of the housing. If it
doesn’t, add lithium #0 grease (Item M9985.) This is
the only way to add grease to the worm gear housing.
(Picture 2) To purchase MANTIS grease, contact
your local authorized MANTIS dealer.
Please do not overfill. Too much grease can create
pressure, which could cause seals to fail or the clutch
to slip.
