could propel the tiller rapidly, possibly
causing loss of control. Always
engage the wheels with the wheel
drive pins in the Wheel Drive position
before starting the engine or engaging
the tines⁄wheels with the forward or
reverse controls.
–
Be aware that the tiller may
unexpectedly bounce upward or
jump forward if the tines should strike
extremely hard packed soil, frozen
ground, or buried obstacles like large
stones, roots, or stumps. If in doubt
about the tilling conditions, always use
the following operating precautions to
assist you in maintaining control of the
tiller:
–
Use shallower depth regulator settings,
working gradually deeper with each
pass.
–
Use slower engine speeds.
–
Clear the tilling area of all large
stones, roots or other debris.
–
Avoid using downward pressure on
the handlebars. If need be, use slight
upward pressure to keep the tines from
digging too deeply.
–
In an emergency, stop the tines and
wheels by releasing whichever lever
is engaged. Do not attempt to restrain
the tiller.
–
Do not overload the tiller’s capacity by
attempting to till too deeply at too fast
a rate.
–
Never operate the tiller at high
transport speeds on hard or slippery
surfaces. Look behind and use care
when backing up.
–
Do not operate the tiller on a slope that
is too steep for safety (greater than 15
degrees). When on slopes, slow down
and make sure you have good footing.
Never permit the tiller to freewheel
down slopes.
–
Never allow bystanders near the unit.
–
Never operate the tiller without good
visibility or light.
–
Never operate the tiller if you are tired;
or under the influence of alcohol, drugs
or medication.
–
Operators shall not tamper with the
engine-governor settings on the
machine; the governor controls the
maximum safe operating speed to
protect the engine and all moving parts
from damage caused by overspeed.
Authorized service shall be sought if a
problem exists.
–
Do not touch engine parts which may
be hot from operation. Let parts cool
down sufficiently.
–
Please remember: You can always
stop the tines and wheels by releasing
control levers (whichever control is
engaged).
–
Never pull the tiller towards you.
–
Start the engine carefully according
to instructions and with feet well away
from the tines.
–
Never pick up or carry a machine while
the engine is running.
