ELECTRICAL SATETY
Grounding instructions
IN THE EVENT OF A MALFUNCTION OR BREAKDOWN, grounding provides the path of least
resistance for electric current and reduces the risk of electric shock. This tool is equipped with an electric
cord that has an equipment grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug MUST be plugged into
a matching outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with ALL local codes and
ordinances.
DO NOT MODIFY THE PLUG PROVIDED. If it will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed
by a licensed electrician.
IMPROPER CONNECTION of the equipment grounding conductor can result in electric shock. The
conductor with the green insulation (with or without yellow stripes) is the equipment grounding
conductor. If repair or replacement of the electric cord or plug is necessary, DO NOT connect the
equipment grounding conductor to a live terminal.
CHECK with licensed electrician or service personnel if you do not completely understand the grounding
instructions, or if you are not sure if the tool is properly grounded.
USE ONLY THREE-WIRE EXTENSION CORDS that have 3-pronged plugs and outlets that accept the
tool's plug as shown in Fig. A. Repair or replace a damaged or worn cord immediately.

6
CAUTION: In all cases, make certain the outlet in question is properly grounded. If you are not sure if it
is, have a licensed electrician check the outlet.
WARNING: Do not expose to rain or use in damp locations.
Guidelines for using extension cords
Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one
heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line
voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. The table below shows the correct size to be used
according to cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The
smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.
Minimum Gauge for Extension Cords (AWG)
(When using 120 V only)
Make sure your extension cord is properly wired and in good condition. Always replace a damaged
extension cord or have it repaired by a qualified person before using it.
Protect your extension cords from sharp objects, excessive heat and damp or wet areas.
Use a separate electrical circuit for your tools. This circuit must not be less than a #12 wire and should be
protected with a 15 A time-delayed fuse. Before connecting the motor to the power line, make sure the
switch is in the OFF position and the electric current is rated the same as the current stamped on the motor
nameplate. Running at a lower voltage will damage the motor.
WARNING: This tool must be grounded while in use to protect the operator from electric
shock.
PERSONAL SAFETY
All visitors, children and pets should stay at a safe distance from the work area.Keep bystanders
away.
Stay alert. Watch what you are doing. Use common sense. Do not operate the product when you are
tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medications.

OPERATING TIPS
WARNING:Stop the motor if the product strikes a foreign object. Switch the product off,
disconnect it from the power supply, and let it cool completely. Inspect the product thoroughly
for damage and have any damage repaired before restarting.
Use the tiller for breaking sod, preparing seed beds, and for cultivating gardens and flower beds. The
tiller can also dig small holes for planting saplings or potted plants.
For breaking sod or deep tilling, allow the tines to pull the tiller forward to the end of your arm’s
reach, then firmly pull it back toward yourself. You will achieve the best results by repeatedly
allowing it to move forward and pulling it back.
By pulling the tiller back towards yourself, the tines will dig deeper and more aggressively. To
prevent tripping, take extra precautions when moving backwards and when pulling the tiller back
toward yourself.
If the tiller digs deep enough to stay in one spot, gently rock it side to side until it starts moving
forward again.
When working on inclines always stand diagonally to the incline to retain a firm, safe footing. Do not
work on extremely steep slopes.

16
For preparing seed beds, we recommend using one of these tilling patterns:
Tilling Pattern A–Make two passes over area to be tilled, the second at a right angle to the first.
Tilling Pattern B– Make two passes over area to be tilled, the second overlapping the first.
Before use, remove any visible stones or other foreign bodies from the area.
Do not till very wet soil because wet soil tends to stick to the working tool, preventing proper tine
rotation; it could also cause you to slip and fall.
Always maintain a firm grip on the product. For better guidance, apply light pressure to the handles.
Pay special attention when changing direction. Apply light pressure to the handle in order to lift the
tines and facilitate the turn. Turn the product around using the wheels as a guide. Gradually release
pressure on the handle and move the tines back to the ground.
WARNING: Before moving the tiller from one area to another switch off the tiller and
wait for the tines to come to a complete stop. Be careful not to let the tines touch the
ground while moving the tiller. The tines as well as the unit itself may be damaged even if
the motor is switched off.
AFTER USE
Switch the product off, disconnect it from the power supply, and let it cool completely.
Check, clean, and store the product as described below.
