•
Minimum tilling width is 10 inches. For that, you will
have to remove both sets of outer tines. Remove
these tines by removing the two self-tapping screws
on the outside of the tines. See Figure 5.
•
When laying out plant rows, be sure to allow
enough width to permit cultivation between the
rows. See Figure 6.

Other Uses
1.
Your tiller can be used for preparation of lawn area
for seeding. The tiller will prepare an evenly deep
seed bed, hence allowing better lawn growth.
2.
Your tiller may be used for loosening hard soil for
excavation with a shovel. In this case, no tedious
hand work will be necessary.
3.
Your tiller may be used for mixing compost in the
pile, or for mixing it with the soil in your garden. This
should be done after the soil has been broken to
the full working depth.
Stopping Engine
•
Move throttle control lever to STOP or OFF
position. Disconnect spark plug wire from spark
plug and ground against the engine.
SECTION 5: MAKING ADJUSTMENTS
WARNING:
Do not at any time make any
adjustments without first stopping the engine
and disconnecting the spark plug wire.
Carburetor
WARNING:
If any adjustments are made to
the engine while the engine is running (e.g.
carburetor), keep clear of all moving parts. Be
careful of heated surfaces and muffler.
Minor carburetor adjustments may be required to
compensate for differences in fuel, temperature,
altitude and load. To adjust carburetor, refer to the
separate engine manual packed with your mower.
NOTE:
A dirty air cleaner will cause an engine to run
rough. Be certain air cleaner is clean and attached to
the carburetor before adjusting carburetor.
Tine Clutch Control
Periodic adjustment of the belt tension may be required
due to normal stretch and wear on the belt.
•
To adjust, loosen top nut at the cable bracket
slightly to take up some slack in the cable wire.
Retighten the bottom nut against the bracket and
check adjustment again.
Tine Width
The tilling width of the unit is 18 inches, but can be
reduced to 14 inches. Refer to page 7 for instructions.
Depth Stake
The depth stake acts as a brake for the tiller and
controls the depth and speed at which the machine will
operate.
•
Remove clevis pin and hairpin clip to raise or lower
depth stake. See Figure 7.
a. When the depth stake is lower, forward
speed of the machine is reduced, and the
working depth increased. See Figure 7.
b. When the depth stake is raised, the forward
speed is increased and the working depth of
the machine is reduced. See Figure 7.
•
The working depth of the machine may be
predetermined by setting the depth stake and
wheels. The wheels are about four inches from the
ground when the tines and depth stake are resting
on the ground. This setting will permit a working
depth of about four inches.
