Avoid creating any source of ignition until gasoline ■ vapors have disappeared. Do not overfill. Wipe off any spilled oil or fuel. Do not store, spill or use gasoline near an open flame. 10 OPERATION JGINE (See Fig, 13) TILLING HINTS CAUTION: Keep drive control bar in “DISENGAGED” position when starting engine. When starting engine for the first time or if engine has run aut offuel, it will take extra pulls ofthe 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. > Move choke control to full “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. Repeat if necessary. 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. ЮТЕ: 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. ЮТЕ: If at a high altitude (above 3000 feet) or in cold emperatures (below 32°F), the carburetor fuel mixture nay need to be adjusted for best engine performance. See TO ADJUST CARBURETOR” in the Service and Adjust-nents section of this manual. FIG. 13 CAUTION: Until you are accustomed to handling your tiller, start actual field use with throttle in slow position (midway between “FAST” and “IDLE”). Tilling is digging into, turning over, and breaking up packed soil before planting. Loose, unpacked soil helps 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 mat-terenriches the soil. Depending on the climate (rainfall and wind), it may be advisable to til! the soil at the end of the growing season to further condition the soil. Soilconditionsare important for proper tilling. Tines will not readily penetrate dry, hard soil which may contribute 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. You will find tilling much easier if you leave a row untilled between passes. Then go back between tilled rows. (See Fig. 14) There are two reasons for doing this. First, wide turns are much easierto negotiate than about-faces. Second, the tiller won’t be pulling itself, and you, toward the row next to it. Do not lean on handle. This takes weight off the wheels 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. 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. 11 OPERATION CULTIVATING ' Cultivating is destroying the weeds between rows to prevent 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. • 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).

NOTE: In extremely rough conditions and while cultivating, the wheels should be moved outward on the axle for increased stability.
