Chapter 1: Important Safety Considerations
We want you to enjoy years of safe and productive use from your DR 2-CYCLE TILLER CULTIVATOR. We do not want you injured,
so please take a few moments to read the following instructions for safely operating your new Tiller/Cultivator.
Your DR 2-CYCLE TILLER CULTIVATOR carries prominent safety labels (shown below) to remind you of important information
while you are operating the machine. Take a moment to study these labels before you operate the machine. Please, immediately
replace labels if they should become unreadable due to fading, or otherwise damaged during use of your DR 2-CYCLE TILLER
CULTIVATOR.
Protecting Yourself and Those around You
Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to the presence of children. Children are often attracted to the
Tiller/Cultivator and the activity of tilling. Never assume that children will remain where you last saw them.
This tilling machine, can cut, and sever parts of your body if they become in contact with the moving Tines. Always take the
following precautions when operating the DR 2-CYCLE TILLER CULTIVATOR:
Only allow responsible individuals who have a thorough understanding of these instructions to operate the Tiller/Cultivator.
Never allow children to operate the machine.
Always wear protective goggles or safety glasses with side shields while tilling to protect your eyes from possible foreign objects
thrown from the machine.
Wear shoes with non-slip treads when using this machine. If you have safety shoes, we recommend wearing them. Do not use
the machine while barefoot or wearing sandals with exposed toes or heels.
Avoid wearing loose clothing or jewelry, which can catch on the machine’s moving parts.
We recommend wearing long pants and gloves while using this machine. Be sure the gloves fit properly and do not have loose
cuffs or drawstrings.
Never place your hands, feet, or any part of your body near the Tines when starting the Engine or while the DR 2-CYCLE TILLER
CULTIVATOR’s Engine is running.
Keep children, other bystanders, and pets away from your work area at all times. Stop the Engine when another person or pet
approaches.
Before and while pulling the machine backwards, look behind and down for small children and for secure footing.
We recommend the use of ear protectors or earplugs rated for at least 20 dba to protect your hearing.
