are installed for your safety.
Be sure the safety covers are in place.
Know how to stop the engine quickly in case of emergency. Understand the use of all
controls.
Keep a firm hold on the handlebars. The may tend to lift during clutch engagement. Check
the maneuverability of the clutch engagement and disengagement before operation.
Wear sturdy, full-coverage footwear, operating this tiller, barefoot or with open toe shoes or
sandals increase your risk of injury.
Be caution when turning around or pulling facing the tiller.
Child Safety
Keep children indoors and supervised at all times while any outdoor power equipment is
being used nearby. Young children move quickly and are attracted especially by the tiller and
tilling activity.
Never assume children will remain where you last saw them.. Be alert and turn the tiller off if
children enter the area.
Children should never be allowed to operate the tiller even under adult supervision.
Thrown Object Hazard
Objects hit by the rotating tines can be thrown from the tiller with great force, and may cause
severe injury.
Before tilling, clear the tilling area of sticks large stones,wire,glass,ect. Till only in daylight.

3
Pieces thrown from worn or damage-tines can cause serious injury. Always inspect the tines
before using the tiller.
Gasoline is extremely flammable, and gasoline vapor can explode. Use extreme care when
handling gasoline.
NOTES
Refuel in a well-ventilated area with the engine stopped. Allow the engines to cool
before refueling. Fuel vapor or spilled fuel may be ignited.
The engine and exhaust system become very hot during operation and remain hot for a
while after stopping. Contact with hot engine components can cause burn injuries and
can ignite some materials.
Avoid touching a hot engine or exhaust system.
Allow the engine to cool before performing maintenance or storing the tiller indoors.
Carbon Monoxide Poisoning Hazard
Exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide, a colorless and odorless gas. Breathing
exhaust can cause loss of consciousness and may lead to death.
If you run the engine in an area that is confined or even partially enclosed, the air you
breathe could contain a dangerous amount of exhaust gas. To keep exhaust gas from building
–up, provide adequate ventilation.
Operation on Slope
When tilling on slopes, keep the fuel tank less than 2/3 full to minimize fuel spillage.
Be very careful when changing the direction of the tiller on a slope.
Do not use the tiller on a slope of more than 10°.
WARNING
The maximum safe grade angle shown is for reference purpose only and should be
determined according to the type of the tool, before starting the engine, check that the tiller is
not damaged and in good condition. For your safety of others, exercise extreme care when using

7. PRE OPERATION CHECK
Pre operation check is so important, it relative to :
◆Working efficiency
◆Working safety and convenience
◆Working in good condition.
1. ENLGINE IOIL
DANGER : Running the engine with low level will cause serious engine damage.
◆Remove the oil filler cap and wipe the dipstick clean
◆Insert the kip stick into the oil filler neck, but do not screw it in.
◆If the level is low, fill to the oil filler neck with the recommended oil.
Use high-detergent, premium quality 4-stroke engine oil
CAUTION: Using non-detergent oil or 2-stroke engine oil could shorten the engine’s service life.
2. TRANSMISSION GEAR OIL
◆Place the tiller on a level surface and remove the oil filler cap.
◆The oil should be level with the lower edge of the oil filler hole.
◆Add high quality engine oil if the level is low.
3.FUEL
◆Use unleaded fuel only
◆Never use an oil\gasoline mixture or dirty gasoline. Avoid getting dirt, dust or water in the
fuel tank.
CAUTION: do not fill over the red level line.
WARINING
Gasoline is extremely flammable and is explosive under certain conditions.
Refuel in a well-ventilated area with the engine stoped. Do not smoke or allow flames or
sparks in the area where the engine is refueled or where gasoline is stored.
Do not overfill the fuel tank (there should be no fuel in the filler neck). After refueling, make
sure the tank cap is closed properly and securely.
Be careful not to spill fuel when refueling. Spilled fuel or fuel vapor may ignite. If any fuel is
spilled, make sure the area is dry before starting the engine.
Avoid repeated or prolonged contact with skin or breathing of vapor.
Never use gasoline containing alcohol, or never use gasohol that contains more than 10%
ethanol.
NOTES
Fuel system damage or engine performance problems resulting from the use of fuels that
contain alcohol is not covered under the warranty. WORLD can not endorse the use of fuels
containing methanol since evidence of their suitability is as yet incomplete.

7
Before buying fuel from an unfamiliar station, try to find out if the fuel contains alcohol, if it
does, confirm the type and percentage of alcohol used. If you notice any undesirable
operating symptoms while using a gasoline that contains alcohol, or one that you think
contains alcohols, switch to a gasoline that you know does not contain alcohol.
4. Tools and Attachments

Use a front wheel to move the tiller on road, lift the handlebars up and ground the front wheel.
2. Tips:
◆Should the machine jerk forward while tilling, press down the handlebars, if the machine will not
move forward, move the handlebars from side to side.
◆Turn: the proper method of negotiating a turn during a tilling operation is to lower the handlebars
to bring the gravity centre toward the rear and then make the turn. This will permit a turn to be
made with relative ease.

deposits.
a. Remove the spark plug cap.
WARNING If the engine has been running, the muffler will be very hot. Be careful not to touch
the muffler.
b. Visually inspect the spark plug. Discard it if the insulator is cracked or chipped.
c. Measure the plug gap with a feeler gauge. The gap should be 0.7-0.8mm (0.028-0.31 in),
correct as necessary by bending the side electrode.
d. Attach the plug washer.
e. Tighten a new spark plug 1/2 turn with the wrench to compress the washer, if you are reusing
a plug, it should only take 1/2- 1/4turn after the plug seats.
CAUTION:
The spark plug must be securely tightened. An improperly tightened plug can become very hot
and possible damage the engine. Never use a spark with an improper heat range.
5 .Clutch Cable Adjustment
Measure the free play at the level tip
Free play:3-8mm(0.1-0.3in)
If the free play is incorrect, loosen the lock
nut and turn the adjusting bolt in or out as
