Important Safety Instructions
Work Area Safety
• Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered
or dark areas invite accidents.
• Do not operate power tools in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power
tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or
fumes.
• Keep children and bystanders away while
operating a power tool. Distractions can cause
you to lose control.
Electrical Safety
• Charger plugs must match the outlet. Never
modify the plug in any way. Unmodified plugs
and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric
shock.
• Do not expose the charger to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering the charger will
increase the risk of electric shock.
• Do not charge outdoors.
• Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord
for carrying, pulling or unplugging the
charger. Keep cord away from heat, oil,
sharp edges, or moving parts. Damaged or
entangled cords increase the risk of electric
shock.
• Do not use with a damaged cord or plug. If
the battery charger is not working as it should,
has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or
dropped into water, return it to a service center.
Personal Safety
• Stay alert, watch what you are doing,
and use common sense when operating a
power tool. Do not use a power tool while
you are tired or under the influence of
drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment
of inattention while operating power tools may
result in serious personal injury. Maintain correct
working posture, firm footing, and balance during
operation. Reduce fatigue by varying working
position or with rest periods.
• Use personal protective equipment. Always
wear eye protection. Protective equipment
such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard
hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate
conditions will reduce personal injuries.
• Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure
the switch is in the off-position before
connecting battery pack, picking up, or
carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with
your finger on the switch or energizing power
tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
• Remove any adjusting key or wrench before
turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key
left attached to a rotating part of the power too
may result in personal injury.
• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times. This enables
better control of the power tool in unexpected
situations.
• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves
away from moving parts. Loose clothes,
jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving
parts.
Power Tool Use and Care
• Do not force the power tool. Use the correct
power tool for your application. The correct
power tool will do the job better and safer at the
rate for which it was designed.
• Do not use the power tool if the variable
speed trigger does not turn it on and off. Any
power tool that cannot be controlled with the
switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
• Disconnect the battery pack from the
power tool before making any adjustments,
changing accessories, or storing power
tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce
the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
• Store idle appliance indoors. When not in
use, appliances should be stored indoors in a
dry and high or locked-up place out of reach
of children. Do not allow persons unfamiliar
with the power tool or these instructions to
operate power tool. Power tools are dangerous
in the hands of untrained users.
• Maintain power tools. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts, and any other condition
that may affect the power tool’s operation.
If damaged, have the power tool repaired
before use. See “Inspection” in this manual.
Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained
power tools.

cultivator operates as intended.
• Place tine () on the tine shaft to the left of
the gear box. There is a stamp on the tine; the
stamped side should face away from the gear
box.
• Place tine () on the tine shaft to the right of
the gear box. There is a stamp on the tine; the
stamped side should face away from the gear
box.
• Place a felt washer () on each side of the tine
shaft. Slide the washers so they rest against the
inner tines.
• Place the outer tine () on the left side of the
tine shaft. There is a stamp on the tine; the
stamped side should face tine ().
• Place the outer tine () on the right side of
the tine shaft. There is a stamp on the tine; the
stamped side should face tine ().
• To secure the tines to the shaft, insert the hitch
pin into the holes located on either side of the
shaft.
NOTE: The cultivator will not operate properly if
the tines are incorrectly installed. The tines are
property installed when the angled edge of the
tine tines face the ground.
NOTE: If you have a problem with cultivator’s
operation, make sure the times are properly
positioned.
REGULAR TINE PATTERN (FIG. I)
The tine pattern is factory set. This regular tine
pattern is optimal for most outdoor applications.
NOTE: Pay close attention to how the tines are
oriented to the hub position.
NARROW TINE PATTERN (FIG. J)
A narrow tine pattern may be helpful for tilling a
confined area.
Follow these directions to set the narrow tine
pattern:
• Remove hitch pins () from each side of the
cultivator.
• Remove the left and right outer tines () and
().
• Remove the felt washers ().
• Replace the hitch pin () from the alternate
holes on each side of shaft.
NOTE: Do not force the tines. If you experience
difficulty removing the tines, apply lubricant to
the shaft. When reinstalling the tines, clean and
lubricate the shaft, as well as the tine hubs.
ROCKY OR STONY SOIL TINE PATTERN (FIG. K)
Rocky or stony soil may jam the cultivator. The
rocky soil tine pattern can help correct this
problem. This tine pattern’s center gap is wider
than the regular tine pattern. This will result in
fewer rock jams, but it will also require additional
passes when you till an area.
This is how to configure the rocky soil tine pattern:
• Remove hitch pins () from each side of the
cultivator
• Remove tines and felt washers () from the
shaft.
• Reinstall tines () and () on opposite sides
of the shaft. Tine () will now be on the left and
() will be on the right.
• Reinstall tines () and (). Tines () and ()
will now be on one side; tines () and () will
be on the other side.
• Replace the hitch pins.
NOTE: Pay close attention to how the tines are
oriented to the hub position.

Operation and Maintenance
Inspection
Before each use, and if the cultivator has been
dropped, inspect these parts:
CULTIVATOR
Check guards and moving parts for any signs of
damage.
POWERHEAD
• The handle should not have cracks or other
damage. It should be clean, dry, and free of oil,
moisture, or anything else that prevents a firm
grip.
• The electronics cooling vent should be clear and
free of debris.
• The battery pack should be clean, dry, and show
no signs of puncture, impact, or other damage.
The contacts should be clean, dry, and free of
debris.
• The battery port and contacts should be clean,
dry, and free of debris.
• The variable speed trigger should operate
smoothly and should cause increased powerhead
speed with increased pressure.
• The variable speed trigger should prevent the
motor starting if it is not depressed.
• Screws should be tight and hold each component
in place.
Cleaning
CAUTION: When cleaning the powerhead
and attachments, do not immerse in water or
other liquids. Do not use a pressure washer to
clean the powerhead and attachments.
• Remove the battery.
• Remove any debris from the intake screen to
ensure unrestricted airflow.
• Clear any debris from the battery port and wipe
the contacts.
• Wipe dust and clippings from the cultivator.
BATTERY PACK
IMPORTANT: There are no user serviceable
parts inside the battery pack. Do not
disassemble.
Lithium ion batteries have a finite operating life.
If the amount of use time per charge decreases
noticeably under normal use, the battery pack is
at the end of its useful life and should be replaced.
• Make sure the battery pack, including the
contacts, is clean, dry, and has no signs of
puncture, impact, or other damage. Broken
batteries can cause fires or emit hazardous
chemicals.
• Clean dirty contacts with a soft, dry cloth. Dirt
or oil can cause a poor electrical connection
resulting in loss of power.
• Store battery with a full charge, on a charger
when possible.
CHARGER
IMPORTANT: There are no user serviceable
parts inside the charger. Do not disassemble.
• Unplug the charger from the electrical outlet.
• Clean dirty contacts with a soft, dry cloth.
