To ensure safe operation
Operator responsibility
Stop the engine in the following cases:
Whenever you leave the tiller unattended.
−
Before refueling
−
When stopping the engine, move the throttle lever to the LOW
position, then turn the engine switch OFF. If the fuel valve is
equipped on the tiller, be sure to turn the fuel valve OFF.
Keep all nuts, bolts and screws tight to be sure the tiller is in safe
working condition. Regular maintenance is an essential aid to user's
safety and retaining a high level of performance.
Never store the tiller with gasoline in the tank inside a building
where fumes may reach an open flame, spark or high temperature
source.
Allow the engine to cool before storing in any enclosure.
To reduce the fire hazard, keep the tiller especially the engine,
muffler, the gasoline storage area as well, free of grass, leaves, or
excessive grease.
Do not leave containers of vegetable matters in or near a building.
If the fuel tank has to be drained, this should be done outdoors, with
a cold engine.
Replace the worn or damaged parts for safety.
Child safety
Keep children indoors and supervised at all times when any outdoor
power equipment is being used nearby. Young children move
quickly and are attracted especially to the tiller and the tilling
activity.
Never assume children will remain where you last saw them. Be
alert and turn the tiller off if children enter the area.
Children should never be allowed to operate the tiller, even under
adult supervision.
Thrown object hazard
Objects hit by the rotating tines can be thrown from the tiller with
great force, and may cause serious injury.
Before tilling, clear the tilling area of sticks, large stones, wire, glass,
etc. Till only in daylight.
Always inspect the tiller for damage after striking a foreign object.
Repair or replace any damaged parts before continuous use.
Pieces thrown from worn or damaged tines can cause serious injury.
Always inspect the tines before using the tiller.
