Troy-Bilt 15009 - Manual (Page 9)

Section 2: Easy Assembly_______________
Please follow the steps in this Section to assemble your ECONO-HORSE™, PONY® or JUNIOR®
Model tiller and prepare it for use. Due to assembly similarities, we show one model in the as­
sembly photos to represent the three tiller models. Steps unique to any single model(s) are
noted. These steps will not take long and will assure correct assembly of your new tiller.
We recommend you read this Section all the way through first. Then begin the assembly steps.
STEP1: UNPACKING AND LOOSE PARTS
Your tiller was shipped fully assembled except for the parts shown in Photos 2-1 and 2-2. The small
hardware items are inside a plastic bag within the literature package.
If you ordered an electric start PONY® Model Tiller, you also get a second plastic bag with electric
start parts and hardware - it is near the battery. The battery will be in place on its platform or in its own
carton. These parts are called out later in this section.
