3 TRAINING 1. Carefully read this Owner ’ s Manual, the sepa- rate Engine Owner ’ s Manual, and any other literature you may receive. Be thoroughly familiar with the controls and the proper use of the tiller and its engine. Know how to stop the unit and disengage the controls quickly.
7. Take all possible precautions when leaving the machine unattended. Stop the engine. Remove ignition key on electric start models. Disconnect spark plug wire and move it away from the spark plug.
Section 1: Safety 5 4. To reduce the chances of a fire hazard, keep the engine free of grass, leaves, or excessive grease. 5. Store gasoline in a cool, well-venti- lated area, safely away from any spark- or flame-producing equipment. Store gasoline in an approved container, safely away from the reach of children.
INTRODUCTION Carefully follow these assembly steps to correctly prepare your tiller for use. It is recommended that you read this Section in its entirety before beginning assembly. INSPECT UNIT Inspect the unit and carton for damage immediately after delivery.
3. With forward clutch cable (N, Figure 2-4) on inside of handlebar, position handlebar ends on outside of the two mounting tabs (M, Figure 2-3) on trans- mission top cover. NOTE: The curved handlebar height adjustment bracket appears as shown in C, Figure 2-3 for non-electric start units.
3. The cable is pre-adjusted at the factory, but must be checked for correct tension as explained next: The forward clutch spring coil (between points “ A ” in Figure 2-9) measures 2" in length when neither Forward Clutch Control Lever is pulled up.
9 STEP 7: A TT ACH WHEEL GEAR LEVER 1. Insert the Wheel Gear Lever (P, Figure 2-13) up through the slot in the control panel that is labeled “ WHEEL GEAR.
10 Section 2: Assembly Electric Start Assembly Steps The following steps explain how to prepare and install the battery. FOR YOUR SAFETY, CAREFULLY FOLLOW ALL STEPS AND OBSERVE ALL ACCOM- PANYING SAFETY MESSAGES. Before beginning, check that you have received the following items (see Figure 2-16): 1.
11 Section 2: Assembly B. To Charge the Battery: To obtain maximum battery life, charge the battery using the following method until all cells are gassing freely. A battery is gassing freely when the surface of the electrolyte is covered with tiny bubbles.
Section 2: Assembly 4. Check the tightness of the upper mounting screw that secures the negative cable and starter solenoid to the battery post. See Figure 2-20. Scrape away any paint between the cable and the screw as the paint can prevent a good electrical ground.
13 Before operating your machine, care- fully read and understand all safety, controls and operating instructions in this Manual, the separate Engine Owner ’ s Manual, and on the decals on the machine. Failure to follow these instructions can result in serious personal injury.
REVERSE CLUTCH CONTROL The Reverse Clutch Control (C, Figure 3- 1) controls the engagement of reverse drive to the wheels and tines. The revers- ing feature is used for maneuvering the tiller only – never engage the tines in the ground while going in the reverse direction.
Section 3: Features and Controls ENGINE CONTROLS Refer to the engine manufacturer ’ s Engine Owner ’ s Manual (included in the tiller lit- erature package) to identify the controls on your engine. The following two con- trols are used when stopping or starting the engine.
16 Figure 4-1: Location of main tiller controls. Section 4 INTRODUCTION Read this Section of the manual thor- oughly before you start the engine. Then, take the time to familiarize yourself with the basic operation of the tiller before using it in the garden.
17 Section 4: Operation ST ARTING THE ENGINE The following steps describe how to start and stop the engine. Do not attempt to engage the tines or wheels until you have read all of the operating instruc- tions in this Section.
18 Section 4: Operation 4. For forward motion of the wheels and tines: (a) Pull one or both of the Forward Clutch Control Levers up and hold them against the handlebars. To stop forward motion of the wheels and tines, release the levers. (b) As the tiller moves forward, relax and let the wheels pull the unit along while the tines dig.
19 Section 4: Operation T illing T ips & T echniques Let the tiller do the work • While tilling, relax and let the wheels pull the tiller along while the tines do the digging. Walk on the side that is not yet finished (to avoid making foot- prints in the freshly tilled soil) and lightly, but securely grip the handlebar with just one hand.
20 Section 4: Operation T illing T ips & T echniques Clearing the tines The tines have a self-clearing action which eliminates most tangling of debris in the tines. However, occasionally dry grass, stringy stalks or tough vines may become tangled.
21 Section 4: Operation POWER COMPOSTING Power composting simply means tilling under and burying in the soil all manner of organic matter such as crop residues, leaves, grass clippings and cover crops. This material will decompose during the non-growing season and add important natural nutrients to the soil.

CHECKING AND ADJUSTING TENSION ON CLUTCH BEL TS Maintaining correct belt tension is impor- tant to good tilling performance and long belt life. A loose belt will slip on the engine and transmission pulleys and cause the tines and wheels to slow down – or stop – even though the engine is running at full speed.
2. The coiled part of the forward clutch spring (E, Figure 5-10) measures 2" in length when the Forward Clutch Control levers are not pulled up. Pull either Forward Clutch Control Lever up against the handlebar and measure the length of the coil on the forward clutch spring.
Removing Forward Clutch Belt 1. Stop engine, allow it to cool and dis- connect spark plug wire before working near belts. Also remove ignition key on electric start models. 2. Remove the two nuts (C, Figure 5-13) and remove the belt cover. 3. Move the reverse clutch belt (B, Figure 5-16) out of the way.
pull down on the belt and roll it onto the large, forward-most groove of the trans- mission pulley (P, Figure 5-20). 7. Reinstall the belt cover. 8. Test for correct tension on the forward clutch belt (see Checking Forward Belt Tension) .
Section 5: Maintenance W ARNING Before inspecting, cleaning or servicing the unit, shut off engine, wait for all parts to come to a complete stop, disconnect spark plug wire and move wire away from spark plug. Remove ignition key on elec- tric start models.
31 Section 5: Maintenance W ARNING Before inspecting, cleaning or servicing the unit, shut off engine, wait for all parts to come to a complete stop, disconnect spark plug wire and move wire away from spark plug. Remove ignition key on elec- tric start models.
