TILLER SAFETY

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

Honda tillers are designed to cultivate earth outdoors. Other uses can result
in injury to the operator or damage to the tiller and other property.

Most injuries or property damage can be prevented if you follow all
instructions in this manual and on the tiller. The most common hazards are
discussed below, along with the best way to protect yourself and others.

Operator Responsibility

Know how to stop the tiller quickly in case of emergency.

Understand the use of all tiller controls.

Keep a firm hold on the handlebars. They may tend to lift during clutch
engagement.

Be sure the drag bar is in place and properly adjusted.

Be sure that anyone who operates the tiller receives proper instruction.
Do not let children operate the tiller. Keep children and pets away from
the area of operation.

Carbon Monoxide Hazard

Exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide, a colorless, odorless gas.
Breathing carbon monoxide can cause loss of consciousness and may
lead to death.

If you run the tiller in a confined or even partially enclosed area, the air
you breathe could contain dangerous amounts of carbon monoxide. To
keep carbon monoxide from building up, provide adequate ventilation.
