Align the notch on the lower handle with the rib on the tilling
head.
•
Push the lower handle into the tilling head.
•
Align the side cover with the holes on the lower handle shaft
and push the cover into place.
•
Secure with the two ST3.9x16 screws.
WARNING: When connecting the tilling head and lower handle
using the two self-tapping screws supplied, make sure the screws
are securely tightened. Screw heads should be recessed below the
surface. DO NOT START THE UNIT UNTIL TILLING HEAD AND
LOWER HANDLE ARE SECURELY CONNECTED.
Once the tilling head and lower handle are securely connected, do
not remove the self-tapping screws or attempt to disassemble for
any purpose. The self-tapping screws will lose their effectiveness
of securing the assembly if removed and re-installed.

safety button (A) while squeezing the On/
Off trigger switch (B).
Once the tiller/cultivator is started, you can
release the safety button.
To switch OFF, simply release the trigger.

BATTERY INSTALLATION AND REMOVAL
Hold the tool and the battery firmly when installing or removing
battery.
Failure to hold the tool and the battery firmly may cause them to slip
from your hands and may result in damage to the tool and/ or bat-
tery and a personal injury.
To remove:
•
Depress release button (A) on
the back of battery cartridge
(B) to release the battery.
•
Pull the battery out of tool.
To install:
•
Align the battery with the cavity
in the handle.
•
Insert the battery into the
handle until the battery release
button locks into place. You
should hear a "click" once the battery is installed.
•
Note: The battery can only be installed one way.
OPERATING
Use the tiller/cultivator for breaking sod, preparing seed beds, and for
cultivating gardens and flower beds. The tiller/cultivator can also dig
small holes for planting saplings or potted plants.
For breaking sod or deep tilling, allow the tines to pull the tiller/
cultivator forward to the end of your arm's reach, then firmly pull it
back toward yourself. You will achieve the best results by repeatedly
allowing it to move forward and pulling it back.
By pulling the tiller/cultivator back towards yourself, the
tines will dig deeper and more aggressively.
CAUTION: To prevent tripping, take extra precautions when moving
backwards and when pulling the tiller/cultivator back toward yourself.
