ASSEMBLY
•

When R.H., (Right Hand) or L.H. (Left Hand) are used, it
means from a position behind the steering wheel as If you
were seated on the tractor seat and facing forward.
NOTE: Remove mower deck from tractor before mounting
tiller attachment.
• . Remove tiller from carton.
LEVEL

•

Adjust stabilizer bolts so that ends are about flush with
rear of hitch bail (Fig. 2 - Inset). Leave nuts loose.
•
Lower hitch assembly and slide hitch yoke of ti!ler (Fig.
2 - Inset) over hitch tube of sleeve hitch so that the hitch
pin holes line up.
•
Insert hitch pin until it extends from bottom of hitch yoke
(Fig. 2 - Inset). Insert retainer spring into hitch pin.
•
Tighten both stabilizer bolts against the hitch yoke until
there is no looseness at the hitch point. (The frame
assembly does not swing sideways relative to the hitch
bail (Fig. 2). Be su re the frame assembly is perpendicular (square) to the centerline (direction of travel) of the
tractor. This can be determined by measuring the
distance between the edge of tine shield (Fig. 2) and the
back of
the rear tires. This distance should be the
same on the R.H. and L.H. sides within 1/2 inch.
Securely tighten the nuts on the stabilizer bolts.
NOTE: The stabilizer bolts should be loosened before
removing the tiller from the tractor. This will make it
easier to remove the hitch pin and to line up hitch pin
holes when installing another attachment. If tractor is to
be used without a rear attachment, the stabilizer bolt
should be secured by tightening the nuts (Fig. 2-Inset).

may need to be adjusted for best engine performance.
See "TO ADJUST CARBURETOR" in the Service and
Adjustments section of this manual.

WARNING: Experience indicates that alcohol blended
fuels called gasohol or using ethanol or methanol) can
attract moisture which leads to separation and formation
of acids during storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel
system of an engine while in storage. To avoid engine
problems, the fuel system should be emptied before
storage of 30 days or longer. Drain the gas tank, start the
engine and let it run until the fuel lines and carburetor are
empty. Use fresh fuel next season. See Storage sections
of this manual for additional information. Never use
engine or carburetor cleaner products in the fuel tank or
permanent damage may occur.

TILLING

TO START TILLER

Soil conditions will determine how deep tiller can penetrate
on the first pass. In extremely hard ground, several passes
may be necessary to till to a depth of 5 inches while in soft
ground, tiller may penetrate to a depth of 5 inches in the first
pass.

ENGINE

•
•

•

•
•

Operate tiller engine at full throttle and operate tractor in
slowest forward speed, with tractor engine at idle speed or
just above idle. You will soon learn the proper combination of
tilling depth and speed for good tillage.

(See Fig. 3)

"DISENGAGED"
position
when starting
CAUTION: Keep the
tine clutch
lever in
engine.

•

The most efficient tillage is obtained when tiller engine is
operated at full throttle. The sound of tiller engine will tell you
when tiller engine is lightly loaded. Raise gauge wheels to
increase tilling depth. If engine seems to be overloaded or
stalls out, lower gauge wheels for shallower tilling.

I
I

CULTIVATING

Make sure spark plug wire is connected to spark plug,
Move choke control lever to =FULL CHOKE" positionfor
cold engine start. For warm engine start do not use
choke control.

Set gauge wheels so that tiller will penetrate soil to a depth
of 2 to 3 inches. Place rivet in the second or third hole from
the bottom to attain this depth. The tiller engine should be ran
at full throttle except when cultivating small plants, a slower
engine speed is necessary to prevent burying the plants.

Move tiller engine throttle to midway between "FAST'
and "SLOW" positions.
Grasp starter handle and pull rope out slowly until engine
reaches start of compression cycle (rope will pull slightly
harder at this point).
Pull rope with a rapid, continuous, full arm stroke. Keep
a firm grip on starter handle and let rope rewind slowly.
Do not let starter handle snap back against starter.
When engine starts, slowly move choke control on
engine "1/2 CHOKE" position and then to "NO CHOKE"
position as engine warms up.
Move throttle control to desired running position.
Allow engine to warm up for a few minutes before
engaging tines.

OPERATION DO'S AND DON'TS
Always disengage tine clutch lever (Fig. 3) and stop engine
when traveling to or from field (garden) or when not tilling.
Lift tiller out of the ground when turning corners.
Do not put tractor in reverse gear while tiller is in the ground.
Before leaving tractor seat, stop tractor, shift tractor to
"NEUTRAL" position, throttle down and stop tractor engine,
set parking brake, remove ignition key and then disengage
tine clutch lever, throttle down and stop tiller engine, lower
tiller to ground. Disconnect spark plug.
Disconnect spark plug wires before making any adjustments, repairs or to remove debris in tines.

Do not store gasoline from one season to another.
Replace your gasoline can if your can starts to rust,
Rust and/or dirt in your gasoline will cause problems,
If possible, store your unit indoors and cover it to give
protection from dust and dirt.

Cover your unitwith a suitable protective cover that does
not retain moisture. Do not use plastic. Plastic cannot
breathe which allows condensation to form and will
cause your unit to rust.
IMPORTANT:
NEVER COVER TILLER WHILE ENGINE
AND EXHAUST AREAS ARE STILL WARM.

ENGINE

•

Remove spark plug,
Pour 1 ounce (29 ml) of oilthrough spark plug hole into
cylinder.
Pull starter handle slowly several times to distribute oil.
Replace with new spark plug.

Start the engine and let it run until the fuel lines and
carburetor are empty,
Never use engine or carburetor cleaner products in the
fuel tank or permanent damage may occur,
Use fresh fuel next season.

NOTE: Fuel stabilizer is an acceptable alternative in
minimizing the formation of fuel gum deposits during
storage. Add stabilizer to gasoline in fuel tank or storage
container. Always follow the mix ratio found on stabilizer
container. Run engine at least 10 minutes after adding
stabilizer to allow the stabilizer to reach the carburetor.
Do not drain the gas tank and carburetor if using fuel
stabilizer.
