  15. Avoid accidental starting. Be sure the engine is off before transporting the machine or performing any maintenance or service on the unit. Transporting or performing maintenance or service on a machine with engine on invites accidents.

Fuel Safety

  1. Fuel is highly flammable, and its vapors can explode if ignited. Take precautions when using to reduce the chance of serious personal injury.
  2. When refilling or draining the fuel tank, use an approved fuel storage container while in a clean, well-ventilated outdoor. Do not smoke, or allow sparks, open flames or other sources of ignition near the area while adding fuel or operating the unit. Never fill fuel tank indoors.

  3. Keep grounded conductive objects, such as tools, away from exposed, live electrical parts and connections to avoid sparking or arcing. These events could ignite fumes or vapors.

  4. Always stop the engine and allow it to cool before filling the fuel tank. Never remove the cap of the fuel tank or add fuel while the engine is running or when the engine is hot. Do not operate the machine with known leaks in the fuel system.
  5. Loose the fuel tank cap slowly to relieve any pressure in the tank.
  6. Never over fill fuel tank. Fill tank to no more than 12.5mm (1/2" below the bottom of the filler neck to provide space for expansion as the heat of the engine can cause fuel to expand).
  7. Replace all fuel tank and container caps securely and wipe up spilled fuel. Never operate the unit without the fuel cap securely in place.
  8. Avoid creating a source of ignition for spilled fuel. If fuel is spilled, do not attempt to start the engine but move the machine away from the area of spillage and avoid creating any source of ignition until fuel vapors have dissipated.
  9. Store fuel in containers specifically designed and approved for this purpose.
  10. Store fuel in a cool, well-ventilated area, safely away from sparks, open flames or other sources of ignition.
  11. Never store fuel or machine with fuel in the tank inside a building where fumes may reach a spark, open flame, or other sources of ignition, such as a water heater, furnace, clothes dryer and the like. Allow the engine to cool before storing in any enclosure.

Machine use and care

  1. Never pick up or carry a machine while the engine is running.
  2. Do not force the machine.
  3. Use the correct machine for your application. The correct machine will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
  4. Do not change the engine governor settings GB or over-speed the engine. The governor controls the maximum safe operating speed of the engine.
  5. Do not run the engine at a high speed when you are not tilling.
  6. Do not put hands or feet near rotating parts
  7. Avoid contact with hot fuel, oil, exhaust fumes and hot surfaces. Do not touch the engine or muffler. These parts get extremely hot from operation. They remain hot for a short time after you turn off the unit. Allow the engine to cool before doing maintenance or making adjustments.
  8. If the machine should start to make an unusual noise or vibration, immediately shut off the engine, disconnect the spark plug wire, and check for the cause. Unusual noise or vibration is generally warning of trouble.

  9. Use only attachments and accessories approved by the manufacturer. Failure to do so can result in personal injury.

  10. Maintain the machine. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the machine's operation. If damaged, have the machine repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained equipment.
  11. Keep the engine and muffler free of grass, leaves, excessive grease or carbon build up to reduce the chance of a fire hazard.
  12. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
  13. Never douse or squirt the unit with water or any other liquid. Keep handles dry, clean and free from debris. Clean after each use.
  14. Observe proper disposal laws and regulations for gas, oil, etc. to protect the environment.
  15. Store idle machine out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the machine or these instructions to operate it. Machine is dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

  5. Mount the blade guard extension (9.1) as shown in figure (8).

  6. Mount the accelerator (16) as shown in figure (9).

8. Function

Throttle Lever (16)

It controls engine speed. Moving the throttle lever in the directions shown makes the engine run faster or slower. (Fig. 14)

Wheel (17)

The spring locks wheel bracket at different height and distance from the tines. Pull the spring-connected wheel bracket downwards to raise the wheel in the upper groove when tilling. Set the wheel down when transporting the tiller. Tilt the machine back until the tines clear the ground. Push or pull the unit to the next location. (Fig. 13)

Depth Regulator Rod (10)

It regulates the tilling depth and helps the operator control the direction and speed of the tiller.

Insert the depth regular rod in the groove at the rear of the chassis, with the pointed end downward and the side outward. Lowering the depth regulator rod will slow the tiller and make it till deeper. Raising the depth regulator rod will allow it to move faster and till shallower. (Fig. 5)

To adjust the tilling depth (Fig. 5):

  1. Remove the pin. (Pos. B)
  2. Raise or lower the depth regulator rod to the desired position. (Pos. 10)
  3. Replace the pin. (Pos. B)

9. Operation

Adding motoroil and gasoline

⚠️ ATTENTION! OIL HAS BEEN DRAINED FOR SHIPPING.

Failure to fill engine sump with oil before starting engine will result in permanent damage and void engine warranty.

  1. Check the oil level and top up if necessary oil. (Max mark on the oil level indicator) (Fig. 11).
  2. Open the fuel tank cap (2) and fill the device with regular unleaded gasoline. (Fig. 12).

Starting the motor

  1. Pivot the wheel (17) upwards until the locking engages on the intended recess (Fig. 13).
  2. Put the accelerator (16) into position (Fig. 14)
    A= Full throttle
    B= Idle
    C= Stop

  3. Set the throttle lever to the position "A". Start the motor using the recoil starter (1). To do this, first gently pull until you feel resistance, then pull hard all the way. Repeat this operation until the motor starts up. If the motor still does not start up after ten attempts, refer to the "TROUBLE-SHOOTING" section in this manual.

  4. For operating the blades withdraw the accelerator trigger lock (5) and pull the clutch handle (3) to start the rotation of the blades. Keep the clutch handle (3) pushed downwards. Release the clutch to stop the blades (Fig. 15/16).

9.1 Idle Speed (Fig. 14)

Set throttle control lever (16) to its "B" position to reduce stress on the engine when tilling is not being performed. Lowering the engine speed to idle the engine will help extend the life of the engine, as well as conserve fuel and reduce the noise level of the machine.

9.2 Shutting Down (Fig. 14+15)

Release tine clutch control lever (3) to neutral position "C" to stop the tines. To stop the engine switch the throttle lever to position "C"

9.3 Operating Speed (Fig. 14)

For normal tilling:

  • Set the accelerator (16) to “for best tiller action. Cultivating. (Pos. A)
  • The accelerator (16) should be set to control a slow walking speed “for cultivating. (Pos. C)

10. Working instructions

10.1 Depth regulator

Besides depth regulator rod setting, variation of pressure on the handles also helps further control of tilling depth and travel speed. A downward pressure on the handles will reduce the tilling depth and increase the forward speed. An upward pressure on the handles will increase the working depth and reduce the forward speed.

10.2 Tiling

Tilling is digging in, turning over and breaking up garden soil and preparing a seedbed for planting. Best tilling depth is 100 mm to 150 mm. A tiller will also clear the soil of unwanted vegetation. The decomposition of this vegetation matter enriches the soil.

Avoid tilling soil that is too dry as it will pulverize and produce a dust that will not hold water

- Water a few days before tilling.

Also, tilling soil that is too wet will produce unsatisfactory clods.

- Wait a day or two after heavy rain for the soil to dry.

Better growth will be obtained if an area is tilled properly and used soon after tilling to preserve the moisture content.

The type of soil and working conditions will determine the actual setting of the tilling depth. In some soils, the desired depth is reached by first passing over garden. In other soils, the desired depth is obtained by going over the garden two or three times. In later case, the depth regulator rod should be lowered before each succeeding pass over the garden. Passes should be made across the length and width of the garden alternately.

Do not try to dig too deeply in the first pass. If the machine jumps or bucks, allow the unit to move forward at a lightly faster rate.

If the tiller stops forward motion and tries to dig in one spot, rock the handles from side to side to start it moving forward again.

Rocks which are turned up should be removed from the garden area.

10.3 Cultivating

Cultivating is loosening or digging around growing plants to disrupt weeds and aerate soil. Less than 50mm depth is always desirable.

11. Maintenance

Keeping your tiller in top running condition will prolong its life, and help you obtain optimum performance whenever you wish to till your garden.

Cleaning Tine Area

Clean the tiller underside of the tine shield after each use. The dirt washes off tines easier if rinsed off immediately instead of after it dries.

  1. Turn off engine. Engine must be cool.
  2. "C" position and remove spark plug wire from spark plug and secure.
  3. Remove all vegetation, string, wire, and other materials that may have accumulated to the axle between the inside set of tines and the seal on the transmission housing.

Checking the clutch

  1. As clutch wears out, the same lever could have a wider opening, being so uneasy to use. This means that it is necessary to adjust the cable.
  2. Setting clutch lever on its original position acting on the adjustment device and on counternut.
  3. Always towel dry the tiller afterwards and apply a light coat of oil or silicone to prevent rusting or water damage.
  4. Replace spark plug wire.

ATTENTION! Never use a "pressure washer" to clean your tiller. Water can penetrate tight areas of the tiller and its transmission case and cause damage to spindles, gears, bearings, or the engine. The use of pressure washers will result in shortened life and reduce serviceability.

Maintaining the spark plug (Fig. 17)

You must inspect the spark plug after every 50 hours of actual operation.

Check the color of any deposits that have accumulated on the end of the spark plug, it should be "light brown".

Remove any deposits with a stiff brush, preferably a brass-wire brush. Check the gap between the spark plug electrodes and adjust it if necessary. This gap must be between 0.7 and 0.8 mm. (Fig. 19)

Replacing the motor oil (Fig. 10)

When:

After 20 hours of operation

After 100 hours of operation

Place the machine on a flat stable surface, and let the motor run for a few minutes.

Then shut off the motor. Remove the oil fill plug (15).

Place a receptacle underneath the motor to collect the spent oil.

Unscrew the oil drain plug (14) and let the oil flow out completely. Use a hose or any other appropriate instrument to prevent the oil from running onto the pump frame. Check the condition of the oil drain plug (14), its joint, the fill plug (15) and its toric joint; replace any defective parts. Screw the drain plug (14) back on. Pour the new oil into the case, until the maximum level is reached.

Air filter (22) (Fig. 18)

You must examine the condition of the air filter and clean it after every 50 hours of actual use or every 3 months. Hold the air filter while unscrewing the wing nut and remove the air filter. To clean it, use an environmentally-friendly water-based de-greasing product. Let the air filter dry completely, re-assemble it and put on its cover. Caution! Never run the motor without its air filter.

Service information

Please note that the following parts of this product are subject to normal or natural wear and that the following parts are therefore also required for use as consumables.

Wear parts*: spark plug, blades, air filter, all operating fluids/fuels

* Not necessarily included in the scope of delivery!

12. Storage

If the tiller will not be used for a period longer than 30 days, follow the steps below to prepare your tiller for storage.

  1. Drain the fuel tank completely. Stored fuel containing ethanol or MTBE can start to go stale in 30 days. Stale fuel has a high plastic content and can clog the carburetor and restrict fuel flow.
  2. Start the engine and allow it to run until it stops. This ensures no fuel is left in the carburetor. Run the engine until it stops. This helps prevent plastic deposits from forming inside the carburetor and possible engine damage.
  3. While the engine is still warm, drain the oil from the engine. Refill with fresh oil of the grade recommended in the Engine Manual.
  4. Allow the engine to cool. Remove the spark plug and put 30 ml of high quality motor oil into the cylinder. Pull the starter rope slowly to distribute the oil. Replace the spark plug.

⚠️ ATTENTION! Remove the spark plug and drain all of the oil from the cylinder before attempting to start the unit after storage.

  1. Use clean cloths to clean off the outside of the tiller and to keep the air vents free of obstructions.

⚠️ ATTENTION! Do not use strong detergents or petroleum based cleaners when cleaning plastic parts. Chemicals can damage plastics.

  1. Inspect for any loose or damaged parts. Repair or replace damaged parts and tighten loose screws, nuts or bolts.
  2. Remove the tines. Clean and apply oil to the tines and tine shafts to prevent rusting. Mount the tines onto the tine shafts.
