How to reseat the
flange (Clutch Case)

At some point, you may find

that the tines won’t turn when
you press the throttle. This
may mean the engine isn’t
sitting all the way down on the
worm-gear housing.

Perhaps you’ve been using

your tiller for several years. Or
perhaps you’ve removed the
engine for use with our hedge
trimmer attachment, then
replaced it. In either case, the
flange bolt (Key No. 35, page
29) may have come loose and
lifted the engine up.

If this happened you’ll

notice a gap between the
bottom of the engine flange
(clutch case) (Key No. 36,
page 29) and the top of the
worm gear housing. 
(Picture 1)

To fix this, loosen the flange

bolt. Take the engine off the
worm gear housing. Notice
the hex head on top of the
drive shaft (Key No. 22, Page
27). Inside the flange housing,
you’ll find the clutch drum
(Key No. 30, Page 29). Make
sure the hex head lines up
with the clutch drum inside
the flange housing.

Then put the engine back

on the worm gear housing.
Make sure the plastic carrying
handle is not under the fuel
tank.

If you’ve followed these steps

properly, there will be no gap
between the engine flange and
the worm gear housing.
(Picture 2) Make sure you
tighten the flange bolt!

Picture 1 … Note how the
engine doesn’t sit all the way
down on the transmission.

engine sits all the way down on
