CHOKE CONTROL rearward to RUN POSITION and the 
ENGINE SPEED CONTROL to the desired speed 
setting.  Refer to the tilling procedure column on this 
page. 
 
Step 6:  To STOP the engine, pull the ENGINE SPEED 
CONTROL on engine rearward into OFF position.

2.6 TRANSPORTING 

2.6.1 FORWARD/REVERSE: To transport the 
Tiller to a new tilling site using its own power, raise 
the tines to clear lawn and paved surfaces to 
prevent gouging. Release the WHEEL and TINE 
CONTROL BAIL and lift the rear of the Tiller to take 
the weight off the DEPTH BAR (see Figure 7), then 
push the DEPTH BAR downward into notch setting 
that allows the tines to clear the ground surface. 
Place the WHEEL and TINE SHIFT LEVER in FWD 
or REV. Pull the WHEEL and TINE CONTROL 
BAIL back against the handlebar to engage the 
wheel drive and transport the unit. 

 

2.6.2  To transport the Tiller to a new tilling site by 
pushing it, place the WHEEL and TINE SHIFT 
LEVER in the NEUTRAL position, and with the bail 
released, push the unit with the handle bar. The 
Tiller may be pushed with the engine running or 
shut off.
