long pants, long sleeves, boots, and leather gloves. Do
not wear short pants, sandals, or go barefoot. Do not wear
jewelry of any kind. Secure long hair above shoulder level
to prevent entanglement in moving parts.
Keep children away - Keep all bystanders, children, and

Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common
sense when operating a tiller. Do not use tiller while
tired, upset, ill, or under the influence of drugs, alcohol,
or medication. A moment of inattention while operating
tillers may result in serious personal injury.
Do not operate in poor lighting.
Keep all parts of your body away from any moving part.
Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres,
such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases, or
dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust
or fumes.
Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as
pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigerators. There is an
increased risk of electric shock if your body is grounded.
Avoid Dangerous Environments - Don’t expose appliance
or tiller to rain or wet conditions. Water entering an ap-
pliance or tiller will increase the risk of electric shock.
Use Right Appliance - Do not force tool. Use the correct
tool for your application. The correct tool will do the job
better and safer at the rate for which it is designed.

wearing sandals or similar lightweight footwear. Wear
protective footwear that will protect your feet and improve
your footing on slippery surfaces.
Do not overreach - Keep firm footing and balance. Over-
reaching can result in loss of balance.
Avoid accidental starting - Be sure bail bar is in the locked
or off position before inserting battery pack. Carrying tools
with your finger on the bail bar or inserting the battery
pack into a tool with the switch on invites accidents.
Do not use tool if bail bar does not turn it on or off. Any
tool that cannot be controlled with the bail bar is danger-
ous and must be repaired.
Disconnect battery pack - Disconnect battery pack from
the appliance before storing, servicing, or changing ac-
cessories such as tines. Such preventive safety measures
reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
Use only identical manufacturer’s replacement parts and
accessories. Use of any other parts may create a hazard
or cause product damage.
Check for damaged parts - Before further use of the tool,
any part that is damaged should be carefully checked
to determine that it will operate properly and perform its
intended function. Check for alignment of moving parts,
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting,
and any other conditions that may affect its operation. A
guard or other part that is damaged should be properly
repaired or replaced by an authorized service dealer.
Never operate the machine without proper guards, plates,
or other safety protective devices in place.
Keep all fasteners tight to be sure the cultivator is in safe
working condition.
Use only the manufacturer’s replacement tines. Do not
use any other cutting attachment, for example, metal wire,
rope, or the like. To install any other brand of tine to this
tiller can result in serious personal injury.
