TILLER OPERATION

Adding fuel
Fill the fuel tank as instructed in the separate
Engine Manual packed with the tiller.
Fill tank to no more than
12.5mm (1/2") below the
bottom of the filler neck
to provide space for
Starting engine
The controls required to start and run the tiller
are located on the engine and are marked
"CHOKE" and "THROTTLE". Throttle can be
adjusted by the throttle control lever mounted
on the left upper handle through a control
cable.
A more detailed description of the engine
operation and all related precautions and
procedures can be found in the Engine Manual
packed separately with the tiller.
Follow the procedure below for cold starts:
1. Turn choke lever on the engine to full choke
position.
2. Set the throttle lever to "FAST" position.
3. Pull the starting rope slowly several times to
allow the gasoline to flow into the engine's
carburetor. Then hold the start handle firmly
and pull rope out a short distance, until you
feel some resistance. Then pull the rope
smoothly and briskly, and allow rope to return
gently. Do not let the rope to snap back. If
necessary, pull the rope several times until the
engine starts.
4. Allow the engine to run for several seconds
to warm up. Then, gradually move chock lever
to no choke position and adjust the throttle
control to desired speed.
5. Grip the handles firmly with both hands.
Squeeze down on the clutch control lever - this
will engage the tines and move the filler in a
forward direction.
Restarting an engine that is already warm from
previous running does not normally require use
of the choke.
expansion.
1. Move throttle lever to "FAST" position.
2. Hold the start handle firmly and pull rope out
a short distance, until you feel some
resistance.
Then pull the rope smoothly and briskly, and
allow rope to return gently. Do not let the rope
to snap back.
3. Adjust the throttle control to desired speed.
4. Grip the handles firmly with both hands.
Squeeze down on the clutch control lever to
engage the tine and move the filler in a forward
direction.
Idle speed
Set throttle control lever to its "LOW" position
to reduce stress on the engine when tilling is
not being performed. Lowering the engine
speed to idle the engine will help extend the
life of the engine, as well as conserve fuel and
reduce the noise level of the machine.
Shutting down
1. Release tine clutch control lever to neutral
position to stop the tines.
2. Set throttle control lever to its "STOP"
position to stop the engine.
Do not move choke
control to CHOKE
to stop engine. Backfire
damage may occur.
Operating speed
For normal tilling, set the throttle control lever
to "FAST" for best tiller action. The throttle
should be set to control forward movement to a
slow walking speed for cultivating. Set the
throttle control lever to "LOW" to reduce stress
on the engine when tilling is not being
performed.
Besides depth regulator rod setting, variation
of pressure on the handles also helps further
control of tilling depth and travel speed. A
downward pressure on the handles will reduce
the tilling depth and increase the forward
speed. An upward pressure on the handles will
increase the working depth and reduce the
forward speed.
