NOTE:
• If the field is solid and the tool advances too fast, set
the drag bar at the deep cultivation position - A. If the
field is soft and the blade sinks in the field, set the drag
bar at the shallow cultivation position - C.

Assembling and adjusting the angle of
the handle
CAUTION:
• Always perform the adjusting on the flat surface to
avoid accidents.
• Always be sure that the transport wheel is in the
transporting position before you adjust the angle of the
handle.
• Always hold the handle while adjusting, or the handle
may fall on person and cause injuries.
• When adjusting the angle of the handle, be careful not
to have your thumb and fingers pinched between the
handle and the frame. (Fig. 19, 20 & 21)
To assemble the handle on the equipment, put the corn
spring over the handle locking knob and firmly screw them
into the handle piercing it through one of the three handle-
retaining-shaft holes. At this time, put the corn spring over
the handle locking knob so that the swollen surface of the
corn spring faces the handle locking knob. Make sure that
the handle is secured after assembling it.
You can adjust the angle of the handle from three angles.
Hold the handle by one hand, and then turn and remove
the handle locking knob. Choose the favorable angle from
one of the three holes, and return the handle locking knob
and tighten it firmly.
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the handle locking knob is tightened
firmly, or the handle may fall on you and cause injuries.
OPERATION
Starting forward
WARNING:
• Make sure that you hold the handle firmly before
starting the tool. When the field is solid, the tool runs
forward suddenly because the blade does not dig
enough into the field, and may cause injuries.
Push down the handle and place the drag bar into the field
to cultivate. Control the handle up and down, and adjust
the depth of the drag bar in accordance with solidity of the
field. You can dig deeper when you push down the handle
more and place the drag bar deeper. The tool moves
faster and lighter when you lift the handle and pull the
drag bar out from the field.
The tool stops when you release the switch lever.
