Light Duty Tiller

A lightweight tiller designed for use

in small areas previously turned.

Never push the equipment beyond its design limits. 

If

it will not do what you want with reasonable ease and
speed, assume you have the wrong tool for the job.
Contact your local HSS Hire for advice.

Keep the equipment clean

– you will find this less of a

chore if you clean it regularly, rather than wait until the end
of the hire period. 

Regularly check the fuel level and top up as necessary

with unleaded petrol.

EQUIPMENT CARE

Regularly check the oil level 

– when the engine is cold

and on level ground. Unscrew the dipstick, wipe it clean,
then replace it into the opening without screwing it back in
place. Remove it a second time and verify that the oil level
is between the min and max lines, 

top up as necessary.

When not in use,

store the equipment somewhere clean,

dry and safe

from thieves.

Release the throttle lever to set the engine to idle, close
the fuel tap and set the ON / OFF switch to the ‘0’ (OFF)
position. Close the breather valve by turning fully
clockwise.
Reset the depth bar as high as it will go.
Hose the machine down to get it as clean as possible

(do this now before the soil dries) 

ready for return,

to your

local HSS Hire.
