Operating Instructions
PRACTICE OPERATING THE CONTROLS AND USING
THE CULTIVATOR WITH TINES OUT OF GROUND
BEFORE BEGINNING TO TILL.
It is important that you know how to use the cultivator properly,
keep control at all times, stop the tines and wheels from turning,
and stop the engine if necessary.
Read the entire Operation Manual before using the equipment!
Cultivating
Start the cultivator (rotating the tines) by pulling up on the
Safety
Drive Lever
- this will engage the tines.
Safety Drive Lever
Pulling the Safety Drive Lever toward the handlebar engages the tines.
Releasing the lever stops the tines.
Note: You can slow the cultivator’s forward advance at any time by
putting slight downward pressure on the handlebars. Stop the
cultivator by releasing the drive lever and then stop the engine.
Cultivating Tips
e key to successful cultivating is to begin with a shallow cut on the
rst pass, and then work an inch or two deeper on each successive
pass.
• Tilling depth will vary with ground conditions.
• When beginning to till in unbroken ground or in extremely hard
soil perform shallow tilling rst then do a second pass going deeper
into the soil.
• Hold on rmly to the handlebars to control sudden lurches.
Immediately release the
Safety Drive Lever if the tines jam or you
strike a foreign object. With the drive lever released, push the On/O
switch to stop the engine. Disengage the spark plug wire. When tines
have stopped, remove foreign objects and check for damage.
