TILLING

The speed and depth of tilling is regulated

by the position of the depth stake and

wheel height.

The depth stake should always be below

the wheels for digging. It serves as a

brake to slow the tiller's forward motion to

enable the tines to penetrate the ground.

Also, the more the depth stake is lowered

into the ground the deeper the tines will

dig.

DEPTH STAKE

Adjust depth stake by removing the hairpin

clip and clevis pin. Change depth stake to

desired position. Replace the clevis pin

and hairpin clip.

• For normal tilling, set depth stake at the

second or third hole from the top.

TO TRANSPORT

ACAUTION: Before lifting or transporting.

allow tiller engine and muffler to cool.

Disconnect spark plug wire. Drain

gasoline from fuel tank.

AROUND THE YARD

•Tip depth stake forward until it is held by

the stake spring.

•Push tiller handles down, raising tines off

the ground.

•Push or pull tiller to desired location.

AROUND TOWN

• Disconnect spark plug wire.

• Drain fueltank.

•Transport in upright position to prevent

oil leakage.

BEFORE STARTING ENGINE

IMPORTANT: Be very careful not to allow

dirt to enter the engine when checking or

adding oil or fuel. Use clean oil and fuel

and store in approved, clean, covered

containers, use clean fill funnels.

FILL ENGINE WITH OIL

•Remove hangtag from engine.

•With engine level, remove engine oil

filler plug.

•Fill engine with oil to point of overflow-

ing. For approximate capacity see

"PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS".

•Tilt tiller back on its wheels and then re-

level.

•With engine level, refill to point of

overflowing if necessary. Replace oil

filler plug.

•For cold weather operation you should

change oil for easier starting (See =OIL

VISCOSITY CHART" in the Mainte-

nance section of this manual).

•To change engine oil, see the Mainte-

nance section of this manual.

Oil Filler

Oil Level Plug

ADD GASOLINE

• Fill fuel tank. Use fresh, clean, regular

unleaded gasoline. (Use of leaded

gasoline will increase carbon and lead

oxide deposits and reduce valve life.)

IMPORTANT: When operating in tempera-

tures below 32°F(0°C), use fresh, clean,

winter grade gasoline to help insure good

cold weather starting.

AWARNING: 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 section of this

manual for additional information. Never

use engine or carburetor cleaner products

in the fuel tank or permanent damage may

occur.

_CAUTION: Fill to within 112 inch of top of

fuel tank to prevent spills and to allow for

fuel expansion. If gasoline is accidentally

spilled, move machine away from area of

spill. Avoid creating any source of ignition

until gasoline vapors have disappeared.

Do not overfill. Wipe off any spilled oil or

fuel. Do not store, spill or use gasoline

near an open flame.

TO START ENGINE

_:LCAUTION: Keep tine control in "OFF"

position when starting engine.

When starting engine for the first time or if

engine has run out of fuel, it will take extra

pulls of the recoil starter to move fuel from

the tank to the engine.

•Make sure spark plug wire is properly

connected.

•Place throttle control in "FAST" position.

•Move choke control to full "CHOKE"

position. Grasp recoil starter handle with

one hand and grasp tiller handle with

other hand. Pull rope out slowly until

engine reaches start of compression

cycle (rope will pull slightly harder at this

point).

•Pull recoil starter handle quickly. Do no1

let starter handle snap back against

starter. Repeat if necessary.

•If engine fires but does not start, move

choke control to half choke position. Pul

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 afew

minutes before engaging tines.

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 %0 ADJUST CARBURETOR" in the

Service and Adjustments section of this

manual.

NOTE: If engine does not start, see

troubleshooting points,

Control

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 line rotation. Allow tines

to rotate for five minutes.

• Check tine operation and adjust if

necessary. See "TINE OPERATION

CHECK" in the Service and Adjustments

section of this manual.

TILLING HINTS

ACAUTION: Until you are accustomed to

handling your tiller, start actual 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 condition. (The harder or wetter

the ground, the slower the engine and tine

speed needed. Under these poor condi-

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 vegeta-

tion. The decomposition of this veg-

etable matter enriches the soil. De-

pending on the climate (rainfall 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 contribute to

excessive bounce and difficult handling

of your tiller. Hard soil should be

moistened 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 arow untilled between passes.

Then go back between tilled rows.

There are two reasons for doing this.

First, wide turns are much easier to

negotiate than about-faces. Second, tl

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.

CULTIVATING

Cultivating is destroying the weeds be-

tween rows to prevent them from robbing

nourishment and moisture from the plant-,

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

condition, promoting no further growth c

weeds and grass.

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 maintain tiller as instructed in this

manual.

Some adjustments will need to be made

periodically to properly maintain your tiller.

All adjustments in the Service and

Adjustments section of this manual should

be checked at least once each season.

•Once a year you should replace the

spark plug, clean or replace air filter,

and check tines and belts for wear. A

new spark plug and clean air filter

assure proper air-fuel mixture and help

your engine run better and last longer.

BEFORE EACH USE

• Check engine oil level.

• Checktine operation.

•Check for loose fasteners.

TEMPERATURE RANGE ANTtCIPATED BEFORE NEXT OIL CHANGE

NOTE: Although multi-viscosity oils (5W-

30, 10W-30, etc.) improve starting in cold

weather, these multi-viscosity oils will

result in increased oil consumption when

used above 32°F (0°C). Check your

engine oil level more frequently to avoid

possible engine damage from running low

on oil.

Change the oil after every 50 hours of

operation or at least once a year if the tiller

is not used for 50 hours in one year.

Check the crankcase oil level before

starting the engine and after each five (5)

hours of continuous use. Add SAE 30

motor oil or equivalent. Tighten oil filler

plug securely each time you check the oil

level.

TO CHANGE ENGINE OIL

minutes.

• With throttle control in "SLOW" position

IDLE RPM ADJUSTMENT

• To adjust idle RPM, rotate throttle

linkage counterclockwise and hold

against stop while adjusting idle speed

adjusting screw to obtain 1750 RPM.

Release throttle linkage.

High speed stop is factory adjusted. Do

not adjust or damage may result.

IMPORTANT: Never tamper with the

engine governor, which is factory set for

proper engine speed, overspeeding the

engine above the factory high speed

setting can be dangerous. If you think the

engine-governed high speed needs

adjusting, contact your nearest authorizec

service center/department, which has the

proper equipment and experience to mak

Maintenance, repair, or replacement of the

emission control devices and systems,

which are being done at the customers

expense, may be performed by any non-

road engine repair establishment or

individual. Warranty repairs must be

performed by an authorized engine

manufacturer's service outlet.

TO ADJUST CARBURETOR

The carburetor has a high speed fixed jet

and has been preset at the factory and

adjustment should not be necessary.

However, minor adjustments may be

required to compensate for differences in

fuel, temperature, altitude or load. If the

carburetor does need adjustment, proceed

as follows.

Idle speed

Adjusting Screw

Immediately prepare your tiller for storage

at the end of the season or if the unit will

not be used for 30 days or more.

_CAUTION: Never store the tiller with

gasoline in the tank inside a building

where fumes may reach an open flame or

spark. Allow the engine to cool before

storing in any enclosure.

TILLER

•Clean entire tiller (See "CLEANING" in

the Maintenance section of this

manual).

• Inspect and replace belts, if necessary

(See belt replacement instructions in the

Service and Adjustments section of this

manual).

•Lubricate as shown in the Maintenance

section of this manual.

• Be sure that all nuts, bolts and screws

are securely fastened. Inspect moving

parts for damage, breakage and wear.

Replace if necessary.

• Touch up all rusted or chipped paint

surfaces; sand lightly before painting.

ENGINE

FUELSYSTEM

IMPORTANT: It is important to prevent

gum deposits from forming in essential

fuel system parts such as the carburetor,

fuel _ter, fuel hose, or tank during storage.

also, experience indicates that alcohol

blended tuets (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.

• Drain the fuel tank.

• 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.

• U,;e 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 a_ow the stabilizer to reach the carbure-

tor. Do not drain the gas tank and

carburetor if using fuel stabilizer.

ENGINE OIL

Drain oil (with engine warm) and replace

with clean oil. (See "ENGINE" in the

Maintenance section of this manual).

CYLINDER(S)

•Remove spark plug.

•Pour 1ounce (29 ml) of oil through

spark plug hole into cylinder.

• Pull starter handle slowly several times

to distribute oil.

• Replace with new spark plug.

OTHER

• 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 unit with a suitable protec-

tive 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.
