Safe Handling of Gasoline:

1. To avoid personal injury or property damage use extreme care in handling gasoline. Gasoline is

extremely flammable and the vapors are explosive. Serious personal injury can occur when gasoline is

spilled on yourself or your clothes which can ignite. Wash your skin and change clothes immediately.

• Use only an approved gasoline container.

• Never fill containers inside a vehicle or on a truck or trailer bed with a plastic liner. Always place

containers on the ground away from your vehicle before filling.

• When practical, remove gas-powered equipment from the truck or trailer and refuel it on the

ground. If this is not possible, then refuel such equipment on a trailer with a portable container,

rather than from a gasoline dispenser nozzle.

• Keep the nozzle in contact with the rim of the fuel tank or container opening at all times until

fueling is complete. Do not use a nozzle lock-open device.

• Extinguish all cigarettes, cigars, pipes and other sources of ignition.

• Never fuel machine indoors.

• Never remove gas cap or add fuel while the engine is hot or running. Allow engine to cool at

least five minutes before refueling.

• Never over fill fuel tank. Fill tank to no more than 1/2 inch below bottom of filler neck to allow

space for fuel expansion.

• Replace gasoline cap and tighten securely.

• If gasoline is spilled, wipe it off the engine and equipment. Move unit to another area. Wait five

minutes before starting the engine.

• To reduce fire hazards, keep machine free of grass, leaves or other debris build-up. Clean up oil

or fuel spillage and remove any fuel soaked debris.

• Never store the machine or fuel container inside where there is an open flame, spark or pilot

light as on a water heater, space heater, furnace, clothes dryer or other gas appliances.

Operation

1. Do not put hands or feet near rotating parts. Contact with the rotating parts can amputate hands and feet.

firm hold on the handles.

6. Keep bystanders away from the machine while it is in operation. Stop the machine if anyone enters the

area.

7. Be careful when tilling in hard ground. The tines may catch in the ground and propel the tiller forward.

If this occurs, let go of the handle bars and do not restrain the machine.

8. Exercise extreme caution when operating on or crossing gravel surfaces. Stay alert for hidden hazards

or traffic. Do not carry passengers.

9. Never operate the machine at high transport speeds on hard or slippery surfaces.

10. Exercise caution to avoid slipping or falling.

11. Look down and behind and use care when in reverse or pulling machine towards you.

12. Start the engine according to the instructions found in this manual and keep feet well away from the

tines at all times.

13. After striking a foreign object, stop the engine, disconnect the spark plug wire and ground against

the engine. Thoroughly inspect the machine for any damage. Repair the damage before starting and

operating.

14. Disengage all clutch levers (if fitted) and stop engine before you leave the operating position (behind

the handles). Wait until the tines come to a complete stop before unclogging the tines or making any

adjustments or inspections.

15. Never run an engine indoors or in a poorly ventilated area. Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide,

an odorless and deadly gas.

16. Muffler and engine become hot and can cause a burn. Do not touch.

17. Use caution when tilling near fences, buildings and underground utilities. Rotating tines can cause

property damage or personal injury.

18. Do not overload machine capacity by attempting to till soil too deep at too fast of a rate.

19. If the machine should start making an unusual noise or vibration, stop the engine, disconnect the spark

plug wire and ground it against the engine. Inspect thoroughly for damage. Repair any damage before

starting and operating.

20. Keep all shields, guards and safety devices in place and operating properly.

21. Never pick up or carry machine while the engine is running.

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