SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES

‡ Do not use near underground electric cables, telephone, lines, pipes, or hoses. If in doubt,
contact your utility or telephone company to locate underground services.
‡ If the unit strikes a foreign object, stop the motor, disconnect the extension cord, thoroughly
inspect the machine for any damage, and repair the damage before restarting and operating
the machine.
‡ Do not overload the machine capacity by cultivating too deep in a single pass or at too fast a
rate.
‡ Stay alert. Watch what you are doing. Use common sense. Do not operate cultivator when you
are tired, ill, or upset.
‡ Be aware that the equipment may unexpectedly bounce upward or jump forward if the tines
should strike buried obstacles such as large stones, roots, or stumps.
‡ Extension Cord – To reduce the risk of disconnection of appliance cord from the extension
cord during operating, it is possible to tie the extension cord and power cord in a knot to

then connect the plug end of the power cord into the receptacle end of the extension cord. This
method can also be used to tie two extension cords together.
‡ Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to
use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. A wire gauge size (A.W.G.)
of at least 14 is recommended for an extension cord 50 feet or less in length. A cord exceeding
100 feet is not recommended. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller
the gauge number, the heavier the cord. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage
resulting in loss of power and overheating.
‡ Wear hearing protection.
‡ Ensure that people and pets are at least 50' (15 m) away from cultivator while in use.
