ASSEMBLY

4.

Snap the cable housing clips into the handle assembly cable

mount. The red clip (reverse cable) fits into the top position on the

handle assembly, while the black clip (forward/clutch cable) feeds

into the lower position on the handle assembly. See Figure 3.

5.

Clip the cables into the cable guides located on the handle

assembly panel as seen in Figure 4.

MOVING THE TILLER OFF THE SKID

To roll the tiller off the shipping platform, put the wheels in freewheel, if

they are not already from the factory, as follows:

1.

Place a sturdy block under the transmission to raise one wheel

about 1” off the ground. Remove the click pin from the wheel hub

and wheel shaft. See Figure 5.

Slide the wheel fully inward on the wheel shaft. Reinstall the click

pin through the wheel shaft only (not through the wheel hub). See

Figure 5. The wheel should now spin freely (freewheel) on the

wheel shaft. Repeat with the other wheel.

Use the handlebar to lift and pull the tiller backwards to a flat

area.

NOTE: Before starting the engine, the wheels must be placed in the

WHEEL DRIVE position (pins through wheel hubs and wheel shaft).

This procedure is described in the operation section under wheel drive

pins.
