manual abstract


• Pull recoil starter handle quickly. Do not let starter handle snap back against starter. • If engine fires but does not start, move choke control to half choke position. Pull recoil starter handle until engine starts. • When engine starts, slowly move choke control to "RUN" position as engine warms up. NOTE: A warm engine requires less choking to start. • Move throttle control to desired running position. • Allow engine to warm up for a few minutes before engaging tines. 8 OPERATION NOTE: If at a high altitude (3000 feet) or in cold temperatures (below 32°F), the carburetor fuel mixture may need to be adjusted for best engine performance. See "TO ADJUST CARBURETOR" in the Service and Adjustments section of this manual. NOTE: If engine does not start, see troubleshooting points. SPARK PLUG FIG. 8 RECOIL STARTER THROTTLE CHOKE CONTROL CONTROL HANDLE BREAKING IN YOUR TILLER Break-in your belt(s), pulleys and tine control before you actually begin tilling. • Start engine, tip tines off ground by pressing handles down and engage tine control to start tine rotation. Allow tines to rotate for five minutes. • Check tine operation and adjust if necessary. See “TINE OPERATION CHECK” in the Service and Ad just ments sec tion of this manual. TILLING HINTS CAUTION: Until you are accustomed to handling your tiller, start ac tu al field use with throttle in slow position. To help tiller move forward, lift up the handles slightly (thus lifting depth stake out of ground). To slow down the tiller, press down on handles. If you are straining or tiller is shaking, the wheels and depth stake are not set properly in the soil being tilled. The proper setting of the wheels and depth stake is through trial and error and depends upon the soil con di tion. (The harder or wetter the ground, the slower the engine and tine speed needed. Under these poor con di tions, at fast speed the tiller will run and jump over the ground). A properly adjusted tiller will dig with little effort from the operator. • Tilling is digging into, turning over, and breaking up packed soil before planting. Loose, unpacked soil helps root growth. Best tilling depth is 4"-6". A tiller will also clear the soil of unwanted vege ta tion. The de com po si tion of this vegetable mat ter en rich es the soil. De pend ing on the climate (rain fall and wind), it may be advisable to till the soil at the end of the growing season to further condition the soil. • Soil conditions are important for proper tilling. Tines will not readily penetrate dry, hard soil which may con trib ute to excessive bounce and difficult handling of your tiller. Hard soil should be mois tened before tilling; however, extremely wet soil will “ball-up” or clump during tilling. Wait until the soil is less wet in order to achieve the best results. When tilling in the fall, remove vines and long grass to prevent them from wrapping around the tine shaft and slowing your tilling operation. • You will find tilling much easier if you leave a row untilled between passes. Then go back between tilled rows. (See Fig. 9) There are two reasons for doing this. First, wide turns are much easier to negotiate than about-faces. Sec ond, the tiller won’t be pulling itself, and you, toward the row next to it. • Set depth stake and wheel height for shallow tilling when working extremely hard soil or sod. Then work across the first cuts at normal depth. 3 2 1 5 4 6 7 FIG. 9 CULTIVATING Cultivating is destroying the weeds between rows to prevent them from robbing nourishment and moisture from the plants. At the same time, breaking up the upper layer of soil crust will help retain moisture in the soil. Best digging depth is 1"-3". • You will probably not need to use the depth stake. Begin by tipping the depth stake forward until it is held by the stake spring. • Cultivate up and down the rows at a speed which will allow tines to uproot weeds and leave the ground in rough con di tion, promoting no fur ther growth of weeds and grass (See Fig. 10).

LUBRICATION CHART GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS The warranty on this tiller does not cover items that have been subjected to operator abuse or negligence. To receive full value from the warranty, the operator must main tain tiller as instructed in this manual. Some adjustments will need to be made periodically to properly maintain your tiller. At least once a season, check to see if you should make any of the adjustments described in the Service and Adjustments section of this man...
