the same time. Engaging both forward and reverse tine drives
at the same time could damage the belt drives and cause the
engine to stall.
Depth Stake

Tines and End Caps
Tilling tines and end caps are used to cultivate, furrow and
prepare your garden for seeding. End caps are used to avoid
tilled soil from overflowing onto unwanted areas.
Handle Knob
The handle height may be adjusted. Loosen the knob to change
the position. Tighten hardware when complete.
Throttle Control
The throttle controls the engine’s speed. Use maximum engine
speed when tilling. Stop the engine when transporting the tiller.

enrich the fuel mixture when starting a cold engine.
