The operation of any tiller can result in foreign objects thrown into the eyes, which can result 

in severe eye damage. Always wear safety glasses or eye shields before starting your tiller 

and while tilling. We recommend a wide vision safety mask for over  spectacles or standard 

safety glasses.

oil or attempting to start engine.
