NARROW CULTIVATING

The two outer tines can be removed for a nar­

rower tilling or cultivating width of 6 inches.

To do this, simply remove the outer tines (see

previous instructions). Then place a tine spacer

(included with your machine) over the tine shaft.

Secure the spacer in place with the hair pin cot­
ter inserted through the outer hole.

STORAGE

A WARNING

Never store the tiller when there is gasoline
in the fuel tank.

Never place the tiller near any source of

sparks or open flame (such as a hot water
heater, space heater or clothes dryer).

Failure to comply can lead to serious per­

sonal injury or property damage.

To prepare your tiller for extended storage:

1. Prepare the engine for storage by following
the “STORAGE" instructions in the separate

Engine Owner’s Manual.

2.

Allow the engine to cool. Then clean any dirt

and debris from the engine cooling fins, linkage
and other engine surfaces.
3. Cover the engine and store this equipment in

a dry, sheltered location.

4. Remove the tines, and clean all soil and de­

bris away from the dust covers and the tine
shaft. Lubricate the tine shaft.
