By pulling tiller back towards yourself, the tines will dig deeper and more
aggressively.
For breaking sod or deep tilling, allow the tines to pull the tiller forward to the end
of your arm's reach, then firmly pull the tiller back towards you. By repeatedly
allowing the tiller to move forward and then pulling back to you, the tiller will be
most effective.
If the tiller digs deep enough to stay in one spot, gently rock the tiller side to side
to start the tiller moving forward again.
For preparing seed bed, we recommend using one of the tilling patterns shown in
Fig. 4.
Tilling Pattern A – Make two passes over area to be tilled, the second at a right
angle to the first.
Tilling Pattern B – Make two passes over area to be tilled, the second overlapping
the first.
To prevent tripping take particular care when moving backwards and when pulling
the tiller.
Always let the tines rotates at top speed; do not work in such a way as to
overload the appliance.
Never pass the tiller over the extension cord; make sure it is always in a safe
position behind your back.
When working on inclines always stand diagonally to the incline in a sturdy, safe
stance. Do not work on extremely steep slopes.
Transport
Caution! Before transporting the appliance, switch off the motor.
The tines and the unit maybe damaged even if you move the appliance with the
motor switched off, e.g. over solid ground. Prevent the tines from touching the
ground by carrying out the appliance by its guide bar.
Clearing tines of foreign objects
During operation, a stone or root could become lodged in the tines, or tall grass or
weeds may become wrapped around the tine shaft.
To clear the tines, release the trigger lever. Unplug the tiller, and dislodge or remove
any obstacles from the tines or tine shaft.
To ease removal of tall grass or weeds that are wrapped around the tine shaft,
remove one or more of the tines from the tine shaft. See Tine Removal and
Installation in the manual.
