Rotating tines may cause serious injury. The
tines will continue to turn for a few seconds after the tool has

handling.

Operating Tips
• Before each use, check the product, its power cord and
plug, and any other accessories for damage. Do not use the
product if it is damaged or shows wear.
• Double check that the accessories and attachments are
properly fitted.
• Always hold the product by its handles. Keep the handles
dry to ensure a secure grip.
• Ensure that the air vents are always unobstructed and clear.
Clean them if necessary with a soft brush. Blocked air vents
may lead to overheating and damage the product.
• Switch the product off immediately if you are disturbed
while working by other people entering the working area.
Always let the product come to a complete stop before
averting your attention.
• Do not overwork yourself. Take regular breaks to ensure you
can concentrate on the task at hand and have full control
over the product.

WARNING!
In some countries, regulations define
restrictions for use of such products, including the times and
days when operation is permissible. Ask your community for
detailed information and observe these regulations in order
to preserve a peaceful neighborhood and avoid committing
administrative offences.
Tilling
• Make sure that the work area is clear of stones, sticks,
wire, or other objects that could damage the product or its
engine.
• Do not till very wet soil because wet soil tends to stick to
the working tool, preventing proper tine rotation; it could
also cause you to slip and fall.
• Always maintain a firm grip on the product. For better
guidance, apply light pressure to the handles.
m
WARNING!
Do not place hands, feet, or any other part
of the body or clothing near the rotating tines or any other
moving part. The tines begin to rotate forward once the trigger
switch is depressed. The tines continue to rotate until the
trigger switch is released. Failure to avoid contact with the
rotating tines could cause serious personal injury.
• Do not try to till too deeply or force the product into soil that
is extremely hard or resistant.
• Walk the product through the soil at a normal pace and in
as straight a line as possible.
• Till in slightly overlapping rows. To till most effectively,
follow the pattern indicated in Fig. 8. Start by moving the
tiller + cultivator up and down in vertical lines, then work
horizontally from left to right. This will keep the rows even
and ensure that all the ground is tilled without missing any
spots.
