MAINTENANCE

MUFFLER

Do not operate tiller without muffler. Do not tamper with

exhaust system. Damaged mufflers orspark arresters could
create a fire hazard. Inspect periodically and replace if
necessary. If your engine is equipped with a spark arrester

screen assembly, remove every 50 hours for cleaning and

inspection. Replace it damaged.

SPARK PLUG

Replace spark plugs at the beginning of each tilling sea­

son or after every 50 hours of use, whichever comes first.
Spark plug type and gap setting are shown in “PRODUCT
SPECIFICATIONS” on page 3 of this manual.

TRANSMISSION

Your transmission is sealed and will not require lubrication

unless serviced.

CLEANING

Do not clean your tiller when the engine and transmission

are hot. We do not recommend using pressurized water
(garden hose, etc.) to clean your unit unless the gasket
area around the transmission and the engine muffler, air

filter and carburetor are covered to keep water out. Water

in engine will shorten the useful life of your tiller.

Clean engine, wheels, finish, etc. of all foreign mat­
ter.

Keep finished surfaces and wheels free of all gasoline,

oil, etc.

Protect painted surfaces with automotive type wax.
