Flying debris can cause eye injury. Always wear eye
protection before starting and while operating tiller.
HOW TO USE YOUR TILLER ATTACHING TILLER TO TRACTOR
(See Figure 6)
• Rear wheel weights and tire chains can be used on
tractor if additional traction is required for tilling.
• Place tiller on level ground and back tractor up to it.
• Attach hitch bracket extension to oating hitch of tiller
using a hitch pin and hair cotter pin.
• Fasten hitch bracket extension to tractor drawbar with
a 1/2-13 x 1-1/4" hex bolt and 1/2" nylock nut.
• Hitch bracket extension can be attached as shown in
gure 6 or turned upside down for tractors with lower
drawbars.
BREAKING IN YOUR TILLER
Break-in your belts, pulleys, and the control before you
actually begin tilling.
• Start engine with tiller attached to tractor in transport
position. Engage tine clutch lever to start tine rotation.
Allow tines to rotate for ve minutes.
• Check tine operation and adjust if necessary. See
TINE OPERATION CHECK in the SERVICE AND
ADJUSTMENTS section of this manual.

7
TRANSPORTING YOUR TILLER
• Pull forward on lift handle until it locks in the transport
(up) position.
• Disconnect spark plug wire.
• Drain fuel tank.
• Transport in upright position to prevent oil leakage.
• Do not transport on roads or public thoroughfares
TO ADJUST DEPTH STAKE
• The top depth stake hole selects a till depth of 1"
with each lower hole increasing till depth by 1" to a
maximum of 5".
• To change till depth, remove the hair cotter pin from
the clevis pin which is connecting the depth stake to
the stake support bracket.
• Grasp the top of the depth stake, remove the clevis
pin and reposition the depth stake. Insert clevis pin
and hair cotter pin.
Removing the depth stake could result in loss of control of
the towing vehicle and result in injury.
TILLING
• Tilling should be done with the tiller engine full
throttle. If tiller engine seems to be overloaded or
stalls out, lower gauge wheels for shallower tilling.
• Operate tiller engine at full throttle and operate tractor
in slowest forward speed with tractor engine at idle
speed or just above idle.
• Soil conditions will determine how deep tiller can
penetrate on the rst pass. In extremely hard ground,
several passes may be necessary to till to a depth of
6 inches. While in soft ground, tiller may penetrate to
a depth of 6 inches in the rst pass.
TILLING HINTS
IMPORTANT OPERATING HINTS
NOTE: The following are general guidelines for tilling, but
may vary depending upon soil conditions.
• In virgin soil, the tiller should be started in shallowest
depth position and lowered one position at a time
after each pass in each direction.
• Extremely hard and dry soil will need to be cross tilled
at a shallow depth rst, then tilled in the direction of
planting rows on the second pass at the nal depth.
• Till in a pattern similar to that shown in Figure 7. Make
the rst pass, skip a space equal to the width of the
tiller and make the return pass, then till the skipped
area. Tilling in this pattern will enable you to maintain
better control. If the passes are made side-by-side,
the tractor and tiller will pull toward the tilled (soft)
side.
• Check ground moisture. The ground is too wet if you
can make it into a ball with your hand. Tilling soil
when it is too wet will cause lumps which are difficult
to work up.
• In soil that was tilled the year before, select the tilling
depth at which the tiller engine runs comfortable and
does not stall or pull down. Lower depth for additional
passes if great depth is desired.
• Whenever working multiple passes, go perpendicular
to the previous tilling direction.
• In cases where the soil is too hard to get proper
penetration or if tiling action causes tiller to hop or
bounce, it will be necessary to purchase a set of tiller
(wheel) weights.
CULTIVATING
• A minimum of two (2) inches of soil penetration is
required for cultivating.
• Set depth stake so the tiller penetrates soil to a depth
of 2 to 3 inches.
• Run the tiller engine at full throttle except when
cultivating small plants. A slower engine speed
is necessary to prevent burying small plants.

on a grinding wheel. Do not attempt to sharpen tines
while they are mounted to tiller.
To avoid injury shut off (disengage) the Tine Clutch Lever,
the Tiller Engine, and the Tractor Engine before making
any repairs.
SPARE TINE DRIVE BOLTS
• The tiller drive components are protected from
damage by (shearable) grade 5 hex bolts in the
tine assemblies. The hex bolts drive the tines and
hold them in the proper location. Should the tine
assemblies strike or pick up a large hidden object
or become jammed, the hex bolts will break and the
drive components will not be damaged.
• Two extra tine hex bolts and nuts are included with
the tiller. They are located in the tiller stake support
bracket on the rear of the tiller.
• The tine hex bolts are designed to be loose t. Do
not attempt to use a bolt or pin that is larger or harder
than the original grade 5 hex bolts.
