SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

This safety alert symbol means CAUTION, WARNING or DANGER - "personal safety instruction". Read and understand the instruction because it has to do with safety. Failure to comply with the instruction may result in personal injury.

The following "Instructions for Safe Tilling" are suggested by The Toro Company. Failure to operate the tiller in accordance with these Safety Instructions MAY RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY.

BEFORE OPERATING

1. Read and understand the contents of this manual before starting and operating the tiller. Become familiar with all controls and know how to stop tiller quickly. NEVER ALLOW CHILDREN TO OPERATE TILLER.
2. Keep everyone, especially children and pets, away from the area of operation. Remove glass, metal objects, sticks, stones, wire and any other debris that might get caught in or possibly be thrown by the tines.
3. Keep all shields and safety devices in place. If shield, safety device or decal is defective, repair or replace it before operation is commenced. Also tighten any loose nuts, bolts and screws.
4. Wear long pants and substantial shoes while using the tiller. Do not operate tiller while barefoot, wearing sandals, tennis shoes, sneakers or shorts.
5. Fill fuel tank with gasoline before starting the engine. Avoid spilling any gasoline. Since gasoline is highly flammable, handle it carefully.

A. Use an approved gasoline container.
B. Fill tiller fuel tank outdoors when engine is cool. Engine must not be running to prevent a potential hazard.
C. Wipe up any gasoline that may have spilled, and install gasoline container cap and tiller fuel tank cap before starting the engine.

WHILE OPERATING

1. Open doors if engine will be run in the garage because exhaust fumes are dangerous and could possibly be deadly. Do not run engine indoors.

2. Do not operate the tiller if someone is near the area to be tilled.

3. Tilling the soil demands attention. Always maintain secure footing, balance and control.
4. Till the soil when it is dry or moist because wet or sticky soil can cause mechanical damage.
5. Keep face, hands, feet and any other part of the body or clothing away from concealed, moving or rotating parts such as the tines, belts and pulleys. Stay behind the handles and away from the tines while operating the tiller.
6. Release clutch control, shut engine off and wait for all parts to stop before removing any obstruction from the tines. Use a stick to remove the obstruction.
7. If a solid object is hit by the tines or tines get plugged, release clutch control and shut engine off. Remove high tension wire from spark plug; then check for possible damage, an obstruction or loose parts. Use a stick to remove any obstruction, and make all repairs before using the tiller again.
8. Before leaving the operator's position - behind handles - release clutch control and shut engine off. Pull high tension wire off spark plug to prevent possibility of accidental starting.
9. Do not touch the engine while it is running or soon after it is stopped because the engine may be hot enough to cause a burn.

MAINTAINING TILLER

1. Before performing any maintenance or servicing the tiller, shut engine off and pull high tension wire off spark plug to prevent possibility of accidental starting.
2. Perform only those maintenance instructions described in this manual. If major repairs are ever needed or assistance is desired, contact an Authorized TORO Service Dealer.
3. Keep tiller in safe operating condition by having nuts, bolts and screws tight.
4. To reduce potential fire hazard, make sure engine and tiller chassis is free of excessive grease, vegetation, dirt and other foreign matter.
5. Do not overspeed the engine by changing governor settings. Recommended engine speed is 3600 rpm. To assure safety and accuracy, have an Authorized TORO Service Dealer check maximum engine speed (3600 rpm) with a tachometer.

BEFORE OPERATING

1. IMPORTANT: FILL CRANKCASE WITH OIL.

Before starting the engine, refer to the engine instructions in the engine section. Be certain that the engine crankcase is filled with the proper type oil and that all engine service instructions have been followed completely (see page 12).

1. Fill fuel tank with a clean, fresh, low-lead or leaded "regular" grade of automotive gasoline. Do not use "gasohol". Do not mix oil with gasoline.
2. All nuts and bolts should be checked and tightened during the first two (2) hours of use. Periodic checks should be made thereafter.
3. The tires are normally over-inflated for shipping. The recommended tire pressure is 20 lbs.

CONTROLS

ENGINE CHOKE

See engine section, page 13.

ENGINE REWIND STARTER

See engine section, page 13.

ENGINE THROTTLE CONTROL AND STOP LEVER

This control regulates the engine speed from idle to fast and also stops the engine. (See Fig. 1 for location of control.) To idle engine pull throttle control back. To increase speed push throttle control forward. To stop engine pull throttle control all the way back.

HANDLE BAR

The handle bar has two operating locations (see Fig. 2). In the tilling location, the tines are immediately in front of the operator. In the transport location, the engine is immediately in front of the operator. Use the handle control lever to unlock the handle, then position the handle in the desired location.

HANDLE CONTROL LEVER

The handle control lever controls the handle swing location and the handle height. To swing the handle bar, pull back on the lever. Swing to either right or left to the desired position, then release the control lever and swing back and forth slightly until the handle latch engages. To adjust handle height, pull back on control lever without swinging handle. Move handle to desired height. Release lever and move handle up and down slightly until handle locks in the desired height position. NOTE: When pulling back on the handle control lever, the clutch control lever is automatically moved to the neutral position.

CLUTCH CONTROL LEVER

The clutch control lever is a single lever that engages and disengages drive to both the tines and the wheels.

FIGURE 1

graph TD
    A["Transport Location"] --> B["Tilling Location"]
    B --> C["Handle Swing"]
    C --> A

FIGURE 2

When the handle bar is in the tilling location, pushing forward on the control lever engages the drive to both the tines and the wheels at a tilling speed. CAUTION: Before pushing lever forward, be certain depth control setting is correct for soil conditions. (See "Depth Control Lever".)

Pulling back on clutch control lever from forward drive to neutral disengages the drive to the tines and wheels. Further pulling back on the lever engages the reverse drive to the wheels and the tiller moves backwards at transport speed. (Tines do not rotate in reverse.) When released, the control lever will return to neutral position.

When the handle bar is in transport location, the clutch control lever will only operate by pulling the lever back. This engages the drive to the wheels and the tiller moves forward at transport speed. When released, the control lever returns to neutral.

CONTROLS AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

DEPTH CONTROL LEVER

CAUTION: Do not adjust tilling depth with the tines rotating. Place clutch control lever in the neutral position before making adjustments of depth control.

The depth control lever, Fig. 3, is the "key" to easy tilling operation. The exact setting of control will vary with soil conditions. To Operate: Push lever forward then lift or lower to desired position.

When starting a tilling operation, start with the depth control lever in the shallowest setting (Fig. 3). As you become acquainted with the soil, keep raising the control lever so that deeper tilling can be done.

"FREE WHEEL" CONTROL

This control enables you to push the tiller easily. To "Free Wheel", pull klik pin out of wheel hub and axle and insert pin into the outer hole of the axle. This permits the wheels to turn freely about the axle. NOTE: Be sure the klik pins are replaced through the wheel hubs and inner holes on axle before operating tiller, see Fig. 4.

OPERATING SUGGESTIONS

When you start to till in the garden, remember to take it easy. Do not try to take too deep a cut in a pass through sod or hard ground, or soil that has not been tilled for several months or years.

Do not lean on the handle bars because this takes weight off the front wheels, reduces traction, and causes the tines to attempt to propel the tiller instead of just digging.

There are several schools of thought as to the best method to till. It is suggested you try the various methods and select the one you are most comfortable with to get the results you desire.

A. On each succeeding pass, overlap one-half of the previous pass.
B. On the second pass, leave a 12 width untilled and till this width on the third pass. Repeat on the fourth pass, leaving a 12 width untilled and on the fifth pass, till the untilled strip.
C. Use A or B and repeat at 90 degrees.

Remember the key to easy tilling is the depth control setting. Do not try to take too deep a cut in harder soils.

STARTING THE TILLER

Now that you have located the controls and understand their operation and function, it is time to start your tiller.

FIGURE 3

FIGURE 4

1. Place clutch control lever in neutral.
2. Push throttle control lever ahead to fast position.
3. Adjust engine choke to proper position. (Refer to engine starting procedures in engine section, page 13.)
4. Start engine by pulling starter cord.

To Stop Engine

1. Place clutch control lever in neutral position.
2. Pull throttle control and engine stop lever to the stop position.

MAINTENANCE

ADJUSTMENTS

CAUTION: Never attempt to make adjustments on the tiller while the engine is running. Always stop the engine and disconnect the wire from the spark plug before attempting to make adjustments.

FIGURE 5A

BELT ADJUSTMENTS

TINE DRIVE BELT

The tine drive belt, which is the outer belt, is adjusted by loosening the clamp cap screws (Fig. 5A) and rotating the entire case and tine assembly. Rotate case forward to slacken belt and back to tighten belt. With the clutch control lever in the forward drive position, the distance between the inside of the belt should be approximately 34 inch as shown in Fig. 5B. Tighten the clamp bolts securely after adjustment. Place depth control in shallowest setting and start engine. With control lever in neutral position, tines should not rotate. If tines rotate, readjust to increase belt slack until tines do not drive in neutral.

FIGURE 5B

WHEEL DRIVE BELT

The wheel drive belt, which is the inner belt, is adjusted by moving the right hand idler (Fig. 6). With the clutch control lever in the neutral position, the traction belt should have approximately 14 inch between the upper idler and the belt (Fig. 6). The adjustment idler should be positioned to obtain this 14 inch. Moving idler up will increase clearance and down will decrease clearance.

FIGURE 6

NOTE: The adjustment idler has four locations and is not slot mounted. The machine screw must be removed from the mounting frame when making this adjustment.

MAINTENANCE

HANDLE CONTROL LEVER ADJUSTMENT

The handle control adjustment (Fig. 7) has been set for proper operation and should not need to be adjusted. Should the handle control lever (Fig. 7) become loose after many hours of operation, tighten the adjustment nut only enough to eliminate any excess movement in the handle control lever.

CAUTION: Do not overtighten adjustment nut. This may result in failure of handle bar latch system to fully engage and hold handle in desired position.

FIGURE 7

CLUTCH CONTROL LEVER ADJUSTMENT

The clutch control lever is pre-set for neutral shift position. An adjustment means is provided, however, to center the clutch control lever in the slot on the handle shroud should it become necessary due to wear. This adjustment is located at the handle pivot point (Fig. 8).

FIGURE 8

TO ADJUST:

1. Place handle bar in tilling location and adjust handle bar to lowest position.
2. Loosen the adjustment nut (Fig. 8).
3. Move the clutch control lever on the handle bar until centered in the neutral area (Fig. 9).
4. Retighten the adjustment nut (Fig. 8).

FIGURE 9

MAINTENANCE

LUBRICATION

The best assurance you have of getting the most dependable service from your tiller is to keep the unit clean, free of rust, and well lubricated. Check bolts often to be sure they are kept tight. When the tiller is not being used, it should be stored in a dry place out of the weather.

1. Engine: Refer to Engine Operating and Maintenance Instructions for all engine lubrication requirements.
2. Chain Case: Both the wheel drive and the tine drive cases are amply filled with lubricant and should not require additional lubrication. If a leak develops, add (EP) SAE 140 heavy duty oil as required to bring to proper level. Check oil level every 25 hours.

FIGURE 10

The following procedure should be followed to check lubricant level of cases. When checking cases, do not drain excess lubricant out of the cases.

WHEEL DRIVE CASE

To check the oil level of the wheel drive case, place the depth control lever down to the shallowest setting (Fig. 3). Remove the inspection plug on the right side of the wheel drive case (Fig. 10). Case has sufficient oil if oil is up to bottom of inspection plug hole. It may be more convenient to remove the right wheel when checking this level.

FIGURE 11A

TINE DRIVE CASE

To check the lubrication level of the tine drive case.

1. Set depth control at the deepest setting (Fig. 3).
2. Place tiller on a level surface so that the tines and the wheels are setting on the ground, Fig. 11B.
3. Wipe dirt away from oil level plug and remove plug, Fig. 11A. Oil should be up to the bottom of hole.

FIGURE 11B

MAINTENANCE

FIGURE 12

1. If oil isn't up to bottom of hole, Fig. 11B, fill slowly with (EP) SAE 140 heavy-duty oil until proper level is reached. Replace oil level plug and oil fill plug. Wipe off excess oil.

To add lubricant to either chain case it is necessary to tip tiller on its left side to expose level plugs of each case. Add sufficient (EP) SAE 140 heavy-duty oil to bring to proper oil level.

General

The following points should be lubricated with engine oil every eight hours (see Fig. 12). Before oiling attempt to clean off area to be lubricated.

A. The handle plunger shaft and disc.
B. The control rod swivels.
C. The handle rotating surface.
D. Cam and detent ball and shaft.
E. Handle control lever.
F. Tine drive bellcrank pivot.

IMPORTANT! Apply oil and grease carefully and only where required. Oil or grease on drive belts or pulleys will cause slippage and loss of drive. Wipe up all spills or excess oil and grease completely.

ENGINE OPERATING AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS

ADJUSTMENTS

CARBURETOR ADJUSTMENTS

Minor carburetor adjustment may be required to compensate for differences in fuel, temperature, altitude or load.

NOTE: The air cleaner must be assembled to carburetor when running engine.

TO ADJUST CARBURETOR — Gently turn needle valve clockwise until it just closes. Valve may be damaged by turning it in too far.

Next, open the needle valve 1½ turns counterclockwise. This initial adjustment will permit the engine to be started and warmed up (approximately 5 minutes) prior to final adjustment.

FINAL ADJUSTMENT

Place speed control lever in "FAST" position. Turn needle valve in until engine slows (clockwise - lean mixture). Then turn it out past smooth operating point until engine runs unevenly (rich mixture). Now turn needle valve to the midpoint between rich and lean so the engine runs smoothly. Next, adjust idle RPM. Rotate throttle counterclockwise and hold against stop. Adjust idle speed adjusting screw to obtain 1750 RPM. Release throttle - engine should accelerate without hesitation or sputtering. If engine does not accelerate properly, the carburetor should be re-adjusted, usually to a slightly richer mixture.

CONTROL ADJUSTMENTS

Proper choke and speed control operation is dependent upon proper adjustment of speed controls on the powered equipment.

SPEED CONTROL ADJUSTMENT

The acceptable operating speed range is 1800 to 3600 RPM. Idle speed is 1750 RPM. DO NOT EXCEED 3600 RPM.

SPEED CONTROL

Controls on powered equipment should move governor speed control lever in direction illustrated to increase speed. Casing from speed controls may be connected to engine at points indicated. Wire travel is shown by arrows.
