•
Place the throttle control in the FAST position.
•
Move choke lever to CHOKE position. A warm
engine requires little or no choke.
•
Grasp starter handle and pull rope out slowly until
engine reaches start of compression cycle (rope
will pull slightly harder at this point). Let the rope
rewind slowly.
•
Pull rope with a rapid, continuous, full arm stroke.
Keep a firm grip on starter handle. Let rope rewind
slowly. Do not let starter handle snap back against
starter. Repeat until engine starts.
•
When engine starts, move choke lever on engine
halfway between CHOKE and RUN. As the engine
warms up, move the lever to RUN position.
Using Your Tiller
Your tiller is a precision-built machine for preparing
seed beds, cultivating, furrowing, and mulching.The
instructions below are designed towards your
convenience in using the tiller.
•
When tilling, leave approximately 8 inches of
untilled soil between the first and second tilling
paths, then make the third path between the first
and second. See Figure 3.
•
In some soils, the desired depth is obtained by
going over the garden two or three times. In the
latter case, the depth stake should be lowered
before each succeeding pass over the garden.
•
Passes should be made across the length and
width of the garden alternately. See Figure 3.
Rocks, which are turned up, should be removed
from the garden area before proceeding with tilling.
Figure 3
Using Depth Stake
Please refer to page 8 for instructions.
Handle Pressure
Further control of tilling depth and travel speed can be
obtained by variation of pressure on the handles.
•
A downward pressure on the handles will reduce
the working depth and increase the forward speed.
•
An upward pressure on the handles will increase
the working depth and reduce the forward speed.
The type of soil and working conditions will determine
the actual setting of the depth stake and the handle
pressure required.
Transporting the Tiller
•
To transport the tiller to or from the garden, pivot
the depth stake forward and out of the way. With
the throttle control in SLOW position, the unit will
walk freely on the lawn. If the operator does not
allow the tiller to move freely, the unit will start to till
the surface. See Figure 4.
Figure 4
Cultivating
For cultivating, a two to three inch depth is desirable.
With the outer tines in place on the equipment, the
working width of the machine is 18 inches. With the
outer tines removed for cultivation purposes, the
working width may be reduced to 14 inches.
•
To reduce the width of ground tilled, set the throttle
to a slow walking speed.
•
Remove the two self-tapping screws on the outside
of the tines using a 3/8" wrench. Remove the first
tine and replace the hardware to secure the rest.
