o Start the engine, tilt the unit back on the
depth stake until the tines are off the
ground and squeeze the throttle control
all the way up against the hand grip. The
engine is governor controlled and should
be run at full throttle.
. Grasp the handles firmly and slowly tilt
the unit forward to begin the tilling action.
° As the tines begin to make contact with
the ground, hold back on the handles so
that the tines will dig and not ride forward
over the ground. Hold back until the tines
dig into the soil.
° If the tilled depth is too deep or too
shallow, turn off the engine and reset the
depth stake.
• If depth stake is not controlling forward
action, lower the depth stake. If the unit
is not going forward, raise the depth
stake.

CAUTION:
Keep away from the ro-
tating tines. Rotating tines can cause in-
jury.
BEFORE
STARTING
ENGINE
FILL GAS
The two cycle engine used on this cultivator
requires a mixture of gasoline and oil for lu-
brication of the bearings and other moving
parts. The correct fuel mixture ratio is 24:1
(see Fuel Mixture Chart). Gasoline and oil
must be premixed in a clean gasoline con-
tainer. Always use fresh, clean unleaded
oline.
CAUTION:
Gasoline is flammable
and caution must be used when handling
or storing it. Do not fill fuel tank while cul-
tivator is running, hot, or when it is in an
enclosed area. Keep fuel away from open
flame and electrical spark. DO NOT
SMOKE while mixing fuel or filling the
fuel tank, Never fill fuel tank completely,
but fill it to within 1/4 - 1/2 inch from the
top to provide space for expansion of
fuel. Always fill fuel tank outdoors and
use a funnel or spout to prevent spilling.
Make sure to wipe up any spilled fuel be-
fore starting the engine.
Store gasoline in a clean, approved con.,
tainer, and keep the cap in place on the
container. Keep gasoline in a cool, well-
ventilated place, never indoors. To as-
sure volatility, never buy more than a 30
day supply of gasoline. Gasoline is in-
tended to be used as a fuel for internal
combustion engines; therefore, do not
use gasoline for any other purpose. Since
many children like the smell of gasoline,
keep it out of their reach because the
fumes are dangerous to inhale, as well as
ng explosive.
WARNING:
Experience indicates
that alcohol blended fuels (called gasohol or
using ethanol or methanol) can attract
moisture which leads to separation and
formation of acids during storage. Acidic
gas can damage the fuel system of an en-
gine while in storage. To avoid engine prob-
lems, the fuel system should be emptied
