page103
of
this manual) does

check
these points: Make sure

or
two
of
tiller
operation to
"break
in"
before going any further.
Check

not
determined a cause
for

improper
reverse action, please write
to

HOOKUP,
ADJUSTMENTS, AND
MAINTENANCE
Even
though
your
Tiller's
throttle
cable was
hooked up at the
factory
before it was shipped
to
you,
it
may need adjustmentat a later time.

engine
could
be
difficult
to
start
or
stop,
or
it
may
not
respond immediately
when you move the

toms could be due
to
a need
for
throttle
cable
maintenance
or
replacement. There's
no
need to
put
up
with this sort
of
nuisance. Now,
you
can
learn how
to
make
proper
adjustment easily
for
the
bestTilier
