MAINTENANCE
Keeping your tiller in top running condition will prolong its life and help you obtain optimum performance
whenever you wish to till your garden.
CLEANING
Clean the tiller underneath the tine shield after each use. It is easier to clean off soon after use before it has
had time to dry. Turn the engine off and allow it to cool down before cleaning off the tines and wiping with an
oily cloth.
AIR FILTER
Check and clean the Air Filter regularly to ensure optimum performance.
Remove the air filter cover, take out the filter and wash in lukewarm water. Allow to dry completely and then
refit. If the air filter is damaged in any way, replace with an authorised replacement part.
SPARK PLUG
Check the spark plug periodically & ensure that the gap between the electrodes is 0.0020in/0.5mm.
To remove, use the universal wrench supplied.
If the spark plug is clogged with carbon, clean thoroughly with a wire brush or replace with a equivalent spark
plug. Take care not to allow dirt into the cylinder whilst the spark plug is removed. Plug the hole with a clean
rag (not tissue) during the operation.
IDLE ADJUSTMENT SCREW
The tines should not rotate when the engine is idling (throttle control lever not in use). If they do, turn the
adjustment screw anti-clockwise a few degrees. The adjuster is located just above and to the right of the
primer bulb. If after adjustment, the tines still rotate, it is recommended that the machine is inspected by your
local approved service/warranty dealer.
STORAGE
When storing the tiller for any length of time it is important to drain down the fuel, both in the tank and the
carburetor. Either drain the fuel manually or run the engine until it uses up all the fuel.
Remove the spark plug and add a few drops of oil into the spark plug hole.
Pull the starter cord gently to confirm that a film of oil covers the engine inside.
Refit the spark plug and tighten. Clean dirt or dust from the cutter blade and the outside of the machine and
wipe with an oily cloth. Store in a dry place.
ADJUSTING AND CHANGING THE TINES
Replace all four tines at the same time because they will wear evenly during normal use. Work on one side at a
time.
•
Put the On/Off switch in the STOP position and disconnect the spark plug lead.
•
Remove the clevis pin clips and clevis pins from the tine.
•
Remove the tines from the shaft.
•
Clean and using maintenance oil, lubricate the shaft.
•
The tines are stamped L or R to identify their position on each side of the gearbox when facing the front of
the unit.
•
Replace the tines onto the shaft with the hubs of the tines facing each other.
•
Before you reinstall the clevis pins and pin clips, ensure that the tips on the tines are staggered when
compared to each other.
•
Repeat this procedure on the opposite side.
When installed correctly, there will be an R and L tine on both sides of the gearbox; these letters will line up in
the same direction for each side.
ONLY USE MANUFACTURER APPROVED PARTS
If a part needs replacing, only use the manufacturer's original parts. Non-original replacement parts will
invalidate your warranty and may result in a safety hazard or poor operation.
