IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

out of children's reach.

■ MAINTAIN UNIT WITH CARE - Keep clean for best performance and to reduce the risk of injury.

Inspect extension cord periodically and replace if damaged. Keep handles dry, clean and free from

oil.

■ POLARIZED PLUGS - To reduce the risk of electric shock, this product has a polarized plug.

Polarized connections will t together only one way. Make sure that the receptacle end of the

extension cord has large and small blade slot widths. If the plug does not t fully into the extension

cord, reverse the plug. If it still does not t, obtain a suitable extension cord. If the extension cord

does not t fully into the outlet, contact a qualied electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not

change the plug on the tool or the extension cord in any way.

■ Do not operate the tiller on a slope that is too steep for safe operation. When on slopes, slow down

and make sure you have good footing. Before starting the tiller make sure the times are not touching

any object and are free to move. Grip the guide bar rmly with both hands. Never operate the tiller

with one hand.

The tiller may bounce upward and/or jump forward if the tines strike extremely hard packed soil, frozen

ground, or buried obstacles such as large stones, roots or stumps.

■ STAY ALERT - Watch what you are doing. Use common sense. Do not operate the tiller when you

are tired or under the inuence of drugs or medication.

Do not operate the tiller near underground electrical cables, telephone lines, pipes or hoses. If the

tiller strikes a foreign body, turn it off immediately, wait for the tines to stop and check for damage. If

necessary, repair before restarting. If the tiller starts to vibrate abnormally, turn it off immediately and

check for the cause. Vibration is generally a warning of trouble.

RISK OF CUT - Wear gloves and use caution when cleaning or performing maintenance on the tiller.

Always turn off the tiller, disconnect from the power supply and wait until the tines come to a complete

stop before carrying out any maintenance or repairs.

Tines do not stop immediately after the tiller is turned off.
