lOADING AND UNlOADING THe TIlleR
–
Before loading or unloading, stop the engine, wait for all parts to stop moving,
disconnect the spark plug wire and let the engine and muffler cool.
–
The tiller is too heavy and bulky to lift safely by one person. Two or more people should
share the load.
–
Use sturdy ramps and manually (engine shut off) roll the tiller into and out of the
vehicle. Two or more people are needed to do this.
–
The ramps must be strong enough to support the combined weight of the tiller and any
handlers. The ramps should provide good traction to prevent slipping; they should have
side rails to guide the tiller along the ramps; and they should have a locking device to
secure them to the vehicle.
–
The handlers should wear sturdy footwear that will help to prevent slipping.
–
Position the loading vehicle so that the ramp angle is as flat as possible (the less
incline to the ramp, the better). Turn the vehicle’s engine off and apply its parking brake.
–
When going up ramps, stand in the normal operating position and push the tiller ahead
of you. Have a person at each side to turn the wheels.
–
When going down ramps, walk backward with the tiller following you. Keep alert for any
obstacles behind you. Position a person at each wheel to control the speed of the tiller.
Never go down ramps tiller-first, as the tiller could tip forward.
–
Place wooden blocks on the downhill side of the wheels if you need to stop the tiller
from rolling down the ramp. Also, use the blocks to temporarily keep the tiller in place
on the ramps (if necessary), and to chock the wheels in place after the tiller is in the
vehicle.
–
After loading the tiller, prevent it from rolling by engaging the wheels in the WHEEL
DRIVE position. Chock the wheels with blocks and securely tie the tiller down.
WARNING: Loading and unloading the tiller into a vehicle is
potentially hazardous and we don’t recommend doing so unless
absolutely necessary, as this could result in personal injury or property
damage. However, if you must load or unload the tiller, follow the
guidelines given above.
