• The tiller is equipped with a mechanical transmission that allows two forward speeds and one reverse.
• When the machine is standstill to move forward simply engage the gear lever (Pict.7 Ref. "A") in the first or in the
second speed (Pict.7 Ref. "B") and then press down completely the lever (Pict.6b Ref. "A") to start the movement.
• When the machine is standstill to move backwards engage the gear lever (Pict.7 Ref. "A") in the position "R" (Pict.7
Ref. "B") and then press down completely the lever (Pict.6b Ref. "A") to start the movement.
• The clutch cable must be adjusted in a way that allows the belt to be put under tension when the lever is situated at
about 1 cm from the knob. To this purpose you have to regulate the register of the cable next to the lever (Ref. "B"
Pict.6).
• When the lever (Pict.6b Ref. "A") is released the machine stops immediately while the engine is running.
• The handlebar can be adjusted by unscrewing the blocking lever (Pict.6 Ref. "C"). Adjust the handlebar in the desired
position and then lock it again.
• The tiller is 80 cm wide, it is composed by 3 knives + protection plate on both sides. It can be reduced to 60 cm by
removing one blade from each sides (see picture 2).
• The sharp side of the blades must be turned towards the front side of the machine.
• We recommend to use the tiller with the side plates because they improve the stability of the machine while
working.
• The machine can fit an adjustable ridger which is an optional accessory delivered complete with its own support
which should be fitted on the handlebar holder replacing the standard spur and using the same bolt.
CAUTION: IT IS ADVICED NOT TO KEEP THE MOTOR RUNNING WHEN THE MACHINE IS NOT BEING USED FOR
ITS SPECIFICAL PURPOSE.
SPUR ADJUSTMENT
To get an optimal tilling work and a right advancement of the tiller adjust the spur as shown in picture 8, this adjustment
has to be done on both sides of the machine:
− Adjustment for hard soils: loosen nut and screw (A) and lift the spur as to shift back the weight of the machine.
− Adjustment for soft soils: loosen nut and screw (A) and lower the spur as to move the weight of the machine towards
the blades axle.
To enable the tiller to move slightly sideways during the tilling work, the spur holder arm (B) can be adjusted
horizontally as follows:
g. loosen the nut (C) and adjust the screw (D) as desired, then tighten the nut again. By tightening the screw (D) the
spur can move sideways.
h. carry out the same adjustment also on the other side of the arm.
TRANSFER WHEEL ADJUSTMENT
To transfer the machine the small transfer wheel has to be lowered (see picture 9). Before working remove the splint pin
(B) and the clamping pin (A), lift up the small transfer wheel (C) and insert the clamping pin (A) again in the lower hole.
The clamping pin always has to be locked in the desired position by means of the splint pin (B).
