TILLER SAFETY
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Honda tillers are designed to cultivate earth outdoors. Other uses can
result in injury to the operator or damage to the tiller and other property.
Most injuries or property damage can be prevented if you follow all the
instructions in this manual and on the tiller. The most common hazards are
discussed below, along with the best way to protect yourself and others.
Operator Responsibility
• You must be alert and in good physical condition to operate the
tiller. Do not operate the tiller if you are tired, ill, or under the
influence of alcohol, medication, or any substance that might impair
your vision, dexterity, or judgment.
• Know how to stop the tiller quickly in case of emergency.
• Understand the use of all tiller controls.
• Keep a firm hold on the handlebars. They may tend to lift during
clutch engagement.
• Be sure the drag bar is in place and properly adjusted.
• Be sure that anyone who operates the tiller receives proper
instruction. Do not let children operate the tiller. Keep children and
pets away from the area of operation.
• Before starting the engine, check that the tiller is not damaged and is
in good condition.
Carbon Monoxide Hazard
Your tiller’s exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide gas, which
you cannot see or smell.
Breathing carbon monoxide can KILL YOU IN MINUTES.
For your safety:
• Do not start or operate the engine in any closed or partially enclosed
area, such as a garage.
• Never run the tiller in a closed or even partially closed area where
people or pets may be present.
• Never operate the tiller near open doors, windows, or vents.
• Get fresh air and seek medical attention immediately if you suspect
you have inhaled carbon monoxide.
Early symptoms of carbon monoxide exposure include headache,
fatigue, shortness of breath, nausea, and dizziness. Continued
exposure to carbon monoxide can cause loss of muscular coordination,
loss of consciousness, and then death.
