position (both sides). Retighten nuts.  
FIG. 12  
ADD GASOLINE  
Fill fuel tank. Use fresh, clean, regular unleaded gaso-  
line. (Use of leaded gasoline will increase carbon and  
lead oxide deposits and reduce valve life.)  
TO TRANSPORT  
CAUTION: Beforeliftingortransporting,  
allow tiller engine and muffler to cool.  
Disconnect spark plug wire. Drain  
gasoline from fuel tank.  
IMPORTANT: WHENOPERATINGIN TEMPERATURESBELOW  
32°F (0°C), USE FRESH, CLEAN, WINTER GRADE GASOLINE  
TO HELP INSURE GOOD COLD WEATHER STARTING.  
WARNING: Experienceindicatesthatalcoholblendedfuels  
(called gasohol or using ethanol or methanol) can attract  
moisture which leads to separation and formation of acids  
during storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel system of  
an engine while in storage. To avoid engine problems,  
the fuel system should be emptied before storage of  
30 days or longer. Drain the gas tank, start the engine  
and let it run until the fuel lines and carburetor are empty.  
Use fresh fuel next season. See Storage section of this  
manual for additional information. Never use engine or  
carburetor cleaner products in the fuel tank or permanent  
damage may occur.  
AROUND THEYARD  
Release the depth stake pin. Move the depth stake  
down to the top hole for transporting the tiller. Place  
depth stake pin in hole of depth stake to lock in posi-  
tion. This prevents tines from scuffing the ground.  
Place shift lever indicator in “F” (forward) position for  
transporting.  
Hold the drive control bar against the handle to start  
tiller movement. Tines will not turn.  
Move throttle control to desired speed.  
AROUND TOWN  
CAUTION: Fill to within 1/2 inch of top of fuel tank  
to prevent spills and to allow for fuel expansion. If  
gasolineisaccidentallyspilled,movemachineaway  
from area of spill. Avoid creating any source of igni-  
tion until gasoline vapors have disappeared.  
Disconnect spark plug wire.  
Drain fuel tank.  
Transport in upright position to prevent oil leakage.  
BEFORE STARTING ENGINE  
Donotoverfill. Wipeoffanyspilledoilorfuel. Donot  
store, spill or use gasoline near an open flame.  
IMPORTANT: BE VERY CAREFUL NOT TO ALLOW DIRT  
TO ENTER THE ENGINE WHEN CHECKING OR ADDING  
OIL OR FUEL. USE CLEAN OIL AND FUEL AND STORE IN  
APPROVED, CLEAN, COVERED CONTAINERS. USE CLEAN  
FILL FUNNELS.  
TO START ENGINE (See Fig. 13)  
CAUTION: Keep drive control bar in  
“DISENGAGED” position when start-  
ing engine.  
CHECK ENGINE OIL LEVEL (See Fig. 12)  
The engine in your unit has been shipped, from the  
factory, already filled with SAE 30 summer weight oil.  
With engine level, clean area around oil filler plug and  
remove plug.  
Engineoilshouldbetopointofoverflowingwhenengine  
is level. For approximate capacity see “PRODUCT  
SPECIFICATIONS” on page 3 of this manual. All oil  
must meet A.P.I. Service Classification SF-SJ.  
When starting engine for the first time or if engine has run  
out of fuel, it will take extra pulls of the recoil starter to  
move fuel from the tank to the engine.  
Make sure spark plug wire is properly connected.  
Move shift lever indicator to “N” (neutral) position.  
Place throttle control in “FAST” position.

OPERATION  
Soilconditionsareimportantforpropertilling.Tineswill  
notreadilypenetratedry,hardsoilwhichmaycontribute  
to excessive bounce and difficult handling of your tiller.  
Hard soil should be moistened before tilling; however,  
extremely wet soil will “ball-up” or clump during tilling.  
Wait until the soil is less wet in order to achieve the  
best results. When tilling in the fall, remove vines and  
long grass to prevent them from wrapping around the  
tine shaft and slowing your tilling operation.  
Donotleanonhandle. Thistakesweightoffthewheels  
and reduces traction. To get through a really tough  
section of sod or hard ground, apply upward pressure  
on handle or lower the depth stake.  
Turn fuel shut-off valve 1/4 turn to open position.  
Move choke control to choke position.  
Grasp recoil starter handle with one hand and grasp  
tiller handle with other hand. Pull rope out slowly until  
engine reaches start of compression cycle (rope will  
pull slightly harder at this point).  
Pull recoil starter handle quickly. Do not let starter  
handle snap back against starter.  
If engine fires but does not start, move choke control  
to half choke position. Pull recoil starter handle until  
engine starts.  
When engine starts, slowly move choke control to  
"RUN" position as engine warms up.  
NOTE: A warm engine requires less choking to start.  
Move throttle control to desired running position.  
Allow engine to warm up for a few minutes before  
engaging tines.

CULTIVATING  
Cultivating is destroying the weeds between rows to pre-  
vent them from robbing nourishment and moisture from the  
plants. At the same time, breaking up the upper layer of  
soil crust will help retain moisture in the soil. Best digging  
depth is 1" to 3" (2.5-7.5 cm). Lower the outer side shields  
to protect small plants from being buried.  
CHOKE CONTROL  
Cultivate up and down the rows at a speed which will  
allow tines to uproot weeds and leave the ground in  
rough condition, promoting no further growth of weeds  
and grass (See Fig. 15).

TILLING HINTS  
CAUTION: Untilyouareaccustomedto  
handlingyourtiller,startactualelduse  
with throttle in slow position (mid-way  
between “FAST” and “IDLE”).  
Tilling is digging into, turning over, and breaking up  
packedsoilbeforeplanting.Loose,unpackedsoilhelps  
root growth. Best tilling depth is 4" to 6" (10-15 cm).  
A tiller will also clear the soil of unwanted vegetation.  
The decomposition of this vegetable matter enriches  
the soil. Depending on the climate (rainfall and wind),  
it may be advisable to till the soil at the end of the  
growing season to further condition the soil.  
You will find tilling much easier if you leave a row un-  
tilled between passes. Then go back between tilled  
rows. (See Fig. 14) There are two reasons for doing  
this.First, wide turns are much easier to negotiate than  
about-faces. Second, the tiller won’t be pulling itself,  
and you, toward the row next to it.  
FIG. 15  
TINE SHEAR PINS  
The tine assemblies on your tiller are secured to the tine  
shaft with shear pins (See “TINE REPLACEMENT” in the  
Service and Adjustments section of this manual).  
If the tiller is unusually overloaded or jammed, the shear  
pins are designed to break before internal damage occurs  
to the transmission.  
If shear pin(s) break, replace only with those shown in  
the Repair Parts section of this manual.

operation or every season, whichever occurs first.  
FIG. 16  
NOTE: Although multi-viscosity oils (5W-30, 10W-30, etc.)  
improve starting in cold weather, these multi-viscosity oils  
will result in increased oil consumption when used above  
40°F (4°C). Check your engine oil level more frequently to  
avoid possible engine damage from running low on oil.  
Service air cleaner more often under dusty conditions.  
Remove cover screw and cover.  
TO SERVICE PRE-CLEANER  
Change the oil after every 25 hours of operation or at  
least once a year if the tiller is not used for 25 hours in  
one year.  
Remove foam pre-cleaner from air cleaner cover.  
Wash it in liquid detergent and water.  
Squeeze it dry in a clean cloth.  
If very dirty or damaged, replace pre-cleaner.  
Reinstall pre-cleaner into air cleaner cover.  
Reinstall cover and secure screw.  
Check the crankcase oil level before starting the engine  
and after each five (5) hours of continuous use. Add SAE  
30 motor oil or equivalent. Tighten oil filler plug securely  
each time you check the oil level.  
TO SERVICE CARTRIDGE  
TO CHANGE ENGINE OIL (See Figs. 16 and 17)  
Determine temperature range expected before oil change.  
All oil must meet API service classification SF-SJ.  
Carefully remove cartridge to prevent debris from  
entering carburetor. Clean base carefully to prevent  
debris from entering carburetor.  
Be sure tiller is on level surface.  
Oil will drain more freely when warm.  
Use a funnel to prevent oil spill on tiller, and catch oil  
in a suitable container.  
Clean cartridge by tapping gently on flat surface. If  
very dirty or damaged, replace cartridge.  
Reinstall cartridge, cover with pre-cleaner and secure  
with screw.

Select handle height best suited for your tilling conditions.  
Handle height will be different when tiller digs into soil.  
CAUTION: When mounting tires, un-  
lessbeadsareseated,overinflationcan  
cause an explosion.  
First loosen handle lock lever.  
Handle can be positioned at different settings between  
“HIGH” and “LOW” positions.  
Maintain 20 PSI (1.4 kg/cm2) of tire pressure. If tire  
pressures are not equal, tiller will pull to one side.  
Keep tires free of gasoline or oil which can damage  
rubber.  
Retighten handle lock lever securely after adjusting.  
TO REMOVE WHEEL (See Fig. 21)

For proper belt tension, the extension spring should have  
about 5/8 inch (16 mm) stretch when drive control bar is  
in “ENGAGED” position. This tension can be attained as  
follows:  
Loosen cable clip screw securing the drive control  
cable.  
Slide cable forward for less tension and rearward for  
more tension until about 5/8 inch (16 mm) stretch is  
obtained while the drive control bar is engaged.

SERVICE AND ADJUSTMENTS  
To maintain the superb tilling performance of this  
machine the tines should be checked for sharpness,  
wear, and bending, particularly the tines which are  
next to the transmission. If the gap between the tines  
exceeds 3-1/2 inches (9 cm), they should be replaced  
or straightened as necessary.  
New tines should be assembled as shown in Fig.  
26. Sharpened tine edges will rotate rearward from  
above.  
TINE REPLACEMENT (See Figs. 24, 25, and  
26)  
CAUTION: Tines are sharp. Wear  
gloves or other protection when han-  
dling tines.  
A badly worn tine causes your tiller to work harder and dig  
more shallow. Most important, worn tines cannot chop and  
shred organic matter as effectively nor bury it as deeply as  
good tines. A tine this worn needs to be replaced.

should not be necessary. However, engine performance  
can be affected by differences in fuel, temperature, altitude  
or load. If the carburetor does need adjustment, contact  
your nearest authorized service center/department  
IMPORTANT: NEVERTAMPERWITHTHEENGINEGOVERNOR,  
WHICH IS FACTORY SET FOR PROPER ENGINE SPEED.  
OVERSPEEDING THE ENGINE ABOVE THE FACTORY HIGH  
SPEED SETTING CAN BE DANGEROUS. IF YOU THINK THE  
ENGINE-GOVERNED HIGH SPEED NEEDS ADJUSTING,  
CONTACTYOURNEARESTAUTHORIZEDSERVICECENTER/  
DEPARTMENT, WHICH HAS THE PROPER EQUIPMENT AND  
EXPERIENCE TO MAKE ANY NECESSARY ADJUSTMENTS.

CAUTION: Never store the tiller with  
gasoline in the tank inside a building  
where fumes may reach an open flame  
orspark. Allowtheenginetocoolbefore  
storing in any enclosure.  
CYLINDER(S)  
Remove spark plug.  
Pour 1 ounce (29 ml) of oil through spark plug hole  
into cylinder.  
TILLER  
Pull starter handle slowly several times to distribute  
oil.  
Replace with new spark plug.  
Cleanentiretiller(SeeCLEANINGintheMaintenance  
section of this manual).  
Inspect and replace belts, if necessary (See belt re-  
placement instructions in the Service and Adjustments  
section of this manual).  
Lubricate as shown in the Maintenance section of this  
manual.  
Be sure that all nuts, bolts and screws are securely  
fastened. Inspect moving parts for damage, breakage  
and wear. Replace if necessary.  
OTHER  
Do not store gasoline from one season to another.  
Replace your gasoline can if your can starts to rust.  
Rust and/or dirt in your gasoline will cause problems.  
If possible, store your unit indoors and cover it to give  
protection from dust and dirt.  
Cover your unit with a suitable protective cover that  
does not retain moisture. Do not use plastic. Plastic  
cannot breathe which allows condensation to form and  
will cause your unit to rust.  
Touch up all rusted or chipped paint surfaces; sand  
lightly before painting.
