CUSTOMER RESPONSIBILITIES

MUFFLER

Do not operate tiller without muffler. Do not tamper with
exhaust system. Damaged mufflers or spark arresters
could create a fire hazard. Inspect periodically and replace
if necessary. If your engine is equipped with a spark
arrester screen assembly, remove every 50 hours for
cleaning and inspection. Replace if damaged.

SPARK PLUG

Replace spark plugs at the beginning of each tilling season
or after every 50 hours of use, whichever comes first. Spark
plug type and gap setting is shown in “PRODUCT SPECI-
FICATIONS” on page 3 of this manual.

TRANSMISSION

Your transmission is sealed and will only require lubrication
if serviced.

CLEANING

Clean engine, wheels, finish, etc. of all foreign matter.

Keep finished surfaces and wheels free of all gasoline,
oil, etc.

Protect painted surfaces with automotive type wax.

We do not recommend using a garden hose to clean your
unit unless the muffler, air filter and carburetor are covered
to keep water out. Water in engine can result in a shortened
engine life.

SERVICE AND ADJUSTMENTS

CAUTION: Disconnect spark plug wire from spark plug and place wire where it cannot come into
contact with plug.
