OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
USING THE MINI GARDEN TILLER
Move the Tiller to the work area before starting the engine. Transport it by pushing on the
wheels and not the tines.
1. With the wheels in the correct position, the engine running and the tines off the ground,
gradually increase the engine speed by pulling up the throttle lever.
2. Holding the handlebars firmly, slowly lower the tiller onto the soil. As the tines rotate,
tilt the tiller forwards so that the tines can penetrate the soil. Once the ground has been
broken, continue at a moderate pace.
3. You can pull the tiller backwards to improve the depth of cultivation.
By manipulating the handle bars, the operator can control the depth and speed of the
tiller:
• Pushing down on the handles will allow the drag bar to penetrate the soil and slow the
forward motion of the tiller.
• Easing up on the handles and moving the tiller gently from side to side will help to
release any tines that are dug in too deeply.
• When turning, push down on the handles to bring the tiller's weight to the rear; this will
make turning easier.
After an initial trial of your tiller, you may find you need to adjust the depth of the drag
stake and the height of the wheels. Instructions for the adjustment of these elements can
be found on the previous pages.
