Tabla De Contenido - Mantis 7228 Manual Del Usuario

Welcome to the World of Mantis Gardening
Here's your new MANTIS Tiller . . . the lightweight wonder that's Changing the
Way Americans Garden.
Unlike big tillers, your MANTIS Tiller weighs only 20 lbs. (Model 7228). So it lifts
easily, handles smoothly, tills and weeds precisely. And, unlike other small tillers,
it features serpentine tines that churn soil to ten inches deep. It creates a soft,
smooth seed bed, even in problem soil.
Once you know how to use your tiller correctly, we guarantee you'll love it. So first, please read this manual. It shows, step by
step, how to use your tiller safely.
