one handle before the other is used. Always wait until the blades have stopped
rotating before using the other handle.
It is important that you do not try to hold back the tiller. Using the machine must be a
comfortable and relaxing experience. Always hold both handles securely.
Do not overload the tiller. Always use it with care.
Use the toolbox underneath the breast plate to store tools and the like.

Adjusting the depth skid
The depth skid can be adjusted for tilling at 3 different depths. The deeper the depth skid sits
in the soil, the deeper the tilling blades will work and the slower the machine will advance.
Using the right tilling depth will lighten your workload. The depth skid will need to be adjusted
to suit the ground conditions, and we recommend that you make several attempts to see how
deep the depth skid should be before deciding which setting works best.
Adjust the depth skid by pulling it backwards and up until it reaches the preferred height.
Position the depth skid vertically and lower it into one of the notches. The depth skid can be
adjusted to suit various tilling depths. The deeper into the ground the depth skid goes, the
deeper the tiller will work. The right setting depends on the ground conditions.

Adjusting the support wheels
The rear wheel set is mounted on the machine. It can be adjusted to the required height by
pressing the operating handle on the left side of the machine with your foot. Push the handle
to the left.

Alternatively, use the locking clamp on the right side of the machine. Pull the clamp out and
move the wheel ring up or down.

The wheel yoke can be used to stabilise the machine during tilling and also prevents
the machine from sinking into soft soil.
Cleaning the tiller
The tiller should be cleaned after use. Use a garden hose to wash off soil and dirt. Remove
any grass, etc. from the rotor shaft. The chassis number should only be cleaned with a damp
cloth; otherwise there is a risk that it might be erased. Avoid using a high-pressure washer
during cleaning.
Always stop the motor before cleaning.
