HOUR METER
The SenDEC®TACH/HOUR hour meter tracks the hours of machine operation in order for
routine maintenance to be performed on a timely basis.
Your SenDEC® hour meter is pre-set at the SenDEC® factory to go into Flash Alert mode at 25-
hour intervals. Although the engine manufacturer does not require changing engine oil this often,
due to heavy-duty use and extreme conditions inherent to tiller use, Red Roo
recommends frequent oil changes
strongly
.
Refer to this manual for equipment service requirements and to the Engine Manual for engine
service requirements.
While Flash Alert is active, hold the tip of the RESET TOOL (Key Cancel Wand) against the
meter as shown. Within several seconds, the display will stop flashing indicating the Service
Interval has been reset. If the wand gets lost, a small mechanic’s pick-up magnet will work.
RESET TOOL
SERVICE
INFORMATION
1. Check the reservoir level using the sight glass on the top of the tank. If required, add to
reservoir with tractor transmission hydraulic oil (AW or ISO rating of 68 is recommended ).
Recheck oil level after the tiller has been run and oil has been circulated through the tine
motor. Routinely check level thereafter. DO NOT OVERFILL THE TANK.
2. Change the hydraulic oil filterafter the first 50 hours of use. Change it after every 200 hours
thereafter.
3. Check the tine bolts after each use and tighten as needed. Check all hydraulic fittings for
leaks and tighten if necessary.
4. Tines should be changed as often as needed for the machine to do a satisfactory and efficient
tilling job. Use Loctitestud and bearing adhesive/sealant on tine bolt threads to prevent
loosening.
5. The grease zerk on the end of the tine frame should be greased after every 4 to 8 hours of
use.
6. The grease zerks on the wheels should be greased monthly.
IMPORTANT: The engine is normally serviced prior to shipping. However, shipping
regulations may prohibit this. Check levels and add oil and fuel as required before starting.
Service according to the engine manual before starting.
WARNING: Running the tiller without hydraulic oil will cause serious damageto the hydraulic
pump. CHECK RESERVOIR LEVEL BEFORE STARTING THE MACHINE.

WORK SITE ASSESSMENT
Examine the work area for any conditions or obstructions that may inhibit tilling or create a safety
hazard for the operator or others. Use the information in this manual combined with good
judgment to identify any hazards to avoid.
In addition to calling to DETERMINE LOCATION OF UNDERGROUND UTILITIES (see
previous section for details), the operator and/or job foreman should visually inspect the work site.
Look for electrical drop boxes, notices of underground placements, manhole covers, recent
trenching or tilling activity, any evidence of possible underground placements, banks, drop-offs,
rocks, wire, uneven terrain, any existing holes and toxic ground conditions.
Only operate tiller outdoors and avoid breathing engine exhaust and fumes.
WARNING : Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide gas that is toxic. Breathing it can
cause unconsciousness and death.
Do not operate tiller near any source of flammable dust or vapors.
WARNING : Sparks from the engine exhaust can cause an explosion or fire in a flammable
or explosive atmosphere. Fuel fumes can catch fire or explode.
Allow adequate side and overhead clearances between tiller and any objects such as
buildings, fences, and trees.
Adequate lighting is required, daylight or artificial, for safe operation of the tiller.
Keep others away. If the job site is near a road or pedestrian path, warn and divert both
motorized traffic and pedestrians. As appropriate, erect barriers, use traffic flag personnel,
signs, cones, and lighting devices to insure safety.
WARNING : Someone could step into the tilled area by accident. Walking near the edge of
the tilled area could cause loss of balance and possibly cause someone to fall into the
rotating tynes. Contact with the rotating tynes while in operation will cause serious injury or
even death.
MACHINE FUNCTION CHECK:If the operator releases the TYNE ENGAGEMENT CONTROL LEVER,
the rotating tynes should stop. This is intended for your safety and must be maintained in good

WORK SITE ASSESSMENT
Examine the work area for any conditions or obstructions that may inhibit tilling or create a safety
hazard for the operator or others. Use the information in this manual combined with good
judgment to identify any hazards to avoid.
In addition to calling to DETERMINE LOCATION OF UNDERGROUND UTILITIES (see
previous section for details), the operator and/or job foreman should visually inspect the work site.
Look for electrical drop boxes, notices of underground placements, manhole covers, recent
trenching or tilling activity, any evidence of possible underground placements, banks, drop-offs,
rocks, wire, uneven terrain, any existing holes and toxic ground conditions.
Only operate tiller outdoors and avoid breathing engine exhaust and fumes.
WARNING : Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide gas that is toxic. Breathing it can
cause unconsciousness and death.
Do not operate tiller near any source of flammable dust or vapors.
WARNING : Sparks from the engine exhaust can cause an explosion or fire in a flammable
or explosive atmosphere. Fuel fumes can catch fire or explode.
Allow adequate side and overhead clearances between tiller and any objects such as
buildings, fences, and trees.
Adequate lighting is required, daylight or artificial, for safe operation of the tiller.
Keep others away. If the job site is near a road or pedestrian path, warn and divert both
motorized traffic and pedestrians. As appropriate, erect barriers, use traffic flag personnel,
signs, cones, and lighting devices to insure safety.
WARNING : Someone could step into the tilled area by accident. Walking near the edge of
the tilled area could cause loss of balance and possibly cause someone to fall into the
rotating tynes. Contact with the rotating tynes while in operation will cause serious injury or
even death.
MACHINE FUNCTION CHECK:If the operator releases the TYNE ENGAGEMENT CONTROL LEVER,
the rotating tynes should stop. This is intended for your safety and must be maintained in good
functional condition. Contact your dealer or the factory if anything on the tiller does not function properly.
