In order to engage an accessory se illustration 4B.
Pay attention while reversing. It is important that the area is
cleared, for any obstacle before reversing. Never reverse the
tiller against a wall, tree or any other fixed obstacle.

Height adjustment of the handle
Follow the height adjustment procedure as shown in

Height adjustment of the brush (accessory)
Follow the height adjustment procedure as shown in
illustration 8C
Mounting an accessory
Follow the mounting procedure shown in illustration 9,
step 1-10.
Always check that the coupling is sufficiently
lubricated. Lubricate with engine oil if necessary,
this will easy the coupling of accessories.
Ensure that coupling of the accessory
- front or rear - is set correctly.
At front-mounted accessories set bolt at the top.
At rear-mounted accessories set bolt at the bottom
Se ill 7
At rear-mounted accessory (tiller), it is important
that the bolt mounted at the bottom. This will
ensure that the blades disengaged in reverse.
Note: The change from front to the rear mounted
Make sure that the gear is set in the neutral postion
in order for the cables not to become trapped.
Disassemble the rods ill 9-5
Turn handlebar ill 9-6
Refit the rods ill 9-7
Note: Open coupling A and B before mounting.
Note: Close coupling A and B after mounting.
Tiller
The rear fitted tiller is used to prepare the ground for
seeding. The tiller is equipped with a depth skid, which guide
the depth of the tiller. When the depth skid is up, the tiller is
working at the maximal depth. When the depth skid is down,
the tiller works with minimum depth.
Max. Working depth is approx. 20 cm.
It the ground is hard it is advisable to use first gear. If the
ground is sandy and soft, second gear may be used.
Cleaning the tiller
The tiller should be cleaned after use. Use a garden hose to
wash off soil and dirt. Remove any grass, etc. from the rotor
shaft. The chassis number should only be cleaned with a
damp cloth to avoid unnecessary wear. Avoid using a high-
pressure washer during cleaning.
Changing the oil
The oil should initially be changed after the first 5 hours of
use, and thereafter once per year.
1. Let the motor run for 5 minutes to heat up the oil.
This allows the oil to run more freely and makes for
a more complete oil change.
2. After 5 minutes, stop the motor. Remove the spark
plug cap. Drain the oil by unscrewing the sump plug.
Remember to drain the oil into a container of
sufficient capacity. NB: The motor must not be
tipped backwards more than 45 degrees.
3. Screw the sump plug back in and pour new oil into
the motor. Do this by removing the dipstick and
pouring in the recommended quantity of oil.
4. Refit the spark plug cap. (only gasoline engine)
Alternatively, use an oil extractor kit.
1. Suck the oil up through the oil filler hole using the
syringe. Use the hose to reach the sump.
2. Transfer the used oil to the container.
3. Fill the engine with new SAE-30 oil.
4. Check the oil level using the dipstick.
Remember to dispose of used oil in a safe way.
Oil and oil extractor kit are not included
Lubrication
Correct maintenance and lubrication prolongs the life of the
machine.
The engine of your machine has a running-in period of 5
work hours. After 5 hours the engine oil must be changed.
After this the oil must be replaced for every 50 hours or at
least once a year. Always check the oil level before using the
machine.
If there are any signs of leakage or moist places the oil must
be checked immediately.
Gearbox (see illustration 8A)
Always check the gear oil level before using the machine.
Refill with 90 gear oil if necessary.
The gear oil should be changed at least once a year or for
every 200 operational hour. Use 90 gear oil.The gear of the
rotary tiller must also be checked for every 50 hours and
changed once a year. Use the same oil as for the gear box.
Quick coupler (see illustration 8B)
To lubricate the quick coupling, do the following:
1. Insert grease gun on the grease nipple.
2. Top up grease 1 to 2 pressure.
