Disconnect spark plug wire and ground to prevent
accidentally starting while equipment is
unattended.
NOTE: After the first ten hours of operation, recheck
the clutch adjustment. Refer to final clutch adjustment
in Assembly Instructions.
IMPORTANT:
When operating the tiller for the first time,
use the depth stake setting that gives 1 inch of tilling
depth (second hole from the top). See Figure 10.
Setting The Depth
Tilling depth is controlled by the depth stake which can
be adjusted to five different settings. Adjust the side
shields as the depth stake is being adjusted.
WARNING: Do not at any time make any
adjustments without first stopping engine
and disconnecting spark plug wire.
•
When using the tiller for the first time, use the
second adjustment hole from the top (1" of tilling
depth). See Figure 10.

•
When breaking up sod and for shallow cultivation,
use the setting which gives 1" of tilling depth
(second hole from the top). Place the side shields in
their lowest position. For further depth, raise the
depth stake and side shields and make one or two
more passes over the area.
•
When tilling loose soil, depth stake may be raised
to its highest position (use bottom adjustment hole)
to give the deepest tilling depth. Raise the side
shields to their highest position.
•
To transport tiller, lower the depth stake (use top
adjustment hole).
To adjust the depth stake, remove the clevis pin and
hairpin clip. Move the depth stake to the desired setting.
Secure with the clevis pin and hairpin clip.
See Figure 10.
To adjust the side shields, remove the wing nuts. Move
the side shield to the desired position. Replace the wing
