BASIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
• DO NOT rely exclusively upon the safety devices built into the unit.
• DO NOT allow the unit to be used as a toy.
• Please read the entire operator’s manual carefully before attempting to assemble, operate or
maintain the unit.
• Follow all safety instructions. Failure to do so can result in property damage or serious injury to
yourself and/or others.
• Be thoroughly familiar with the controls and the proper use of the unit. Know how to stop the unit
and disengage the controls quickly.
• Stay alert! Do not operate the unit when tired, ill or under the influence of alcohol, drugs or medication.
• Never allow children under 14 years old to operate the unit. Children over 14 years old should be
supervised by an adult. Never allow adults to operate the unit without proper instruction.
• Make sure that all guards and safety attachments are properly installed before operating the unit.
• Keep these instructions. Refer to them often and use them to instruct other users. If loaning
someone this unit, also loan them these instructions.
• Keep bystanders, especially children and pets, at least 50 feet (15 m) away. If anyone enters the
work area, stop the unit!
• Keep the work area clean. Cluttered areas invite injuries. Do not start the operation until the work
area is clear and free from obstructions and there is secure footing.
• Always wear appropriate eye protection when operating this unit. Wear safety goggles, or safety
glasses with side shields, that are marked as meeting ANSI Z87.1-1989 standards. Failure to do so
could result in serious eye injury caused by thrown or falling objects. If the operation is dusty, wear
a face mask or dust mask.
• Dress appropriately. Wear non-slip protective gloves and boots. Do not wear loose clothing, jewelry,
short pants, sandals or go barefoot. Secure hair above shoulder level to prevent entanglement in
moving parts.
• Only use the unit in daylight or good artificial light.
• Only use the unit for its intended purpose. Only use the unit as described in this manual.
CULTIVATOR SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
• Inspect the work area before using the unit. Remove any hard and/or sharp objects, such as metal,
glass, wire, etc.
• Make sure the tines are not in contact with anything before starting the unit.
• Be careful when cultivating in hard ground. The tines may catch in the ground and propel the unit
forward. If this occurs, let go of the handle and do not restrain the unit.
• Never operate the unit at high speeds on hard or slippery surfaces.
• Take extra care when working on steep slopes or inclines. Do not operate the unit on excessively
steep slopes.
• Use extreme caution when reversing or pulling the unit towards you.
• Use caution when cultivating near fences, buildings and underground utilities. Rotating tines can
cause property damage or personal injury.
• Do not overload the unit by attempting to cultivate soil too deep or too quickly.
• When picking up the unit, use the handle provided. Do not grasp the tines when picking up or
holding the unit. Never pick up or carry the unit while the motor is running.
• Keep the unit clean of vegetation and other materials that may become lodged between the tines
and guard.
GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

• DO NOT operate the unit on wet surfaces.
• DO NOT use the unit in the presence of flammable liquids or gases.
• DO NOT operate a unit that is damaged, improperly adjusted or not completely and securely
assembled. Be sure that the unit stops when the throttle control is released. Do not use the unit if
the throttle control does not turn the unit on and off properly.
• DO NOT attempt operations beyond the operator’s capacity or experience.
• DO NOT operate the unit with one hand! Serious injury to the operator, helpers or bystanders may
result from one-handed operation. This unit is intended for two-handed use. Grip the unit firmly with
both hands when the motor is running. Use a firm grip with thumbs and fingers encircling the
handle. Do not let go!
