9 OPERATION
9.1 Double insulation
The tiller has double insulation. This means that all external metal parts are insulated from the
electrical supply.
This is achieved by introducing an insulation layer between electrical and mechanical parts.
The double insulation guarantees you the greatest possible safety.
9.2 Overheat protection
If the application is blocked by a foreign object or if the motor is overloaded, the motor will
switch off automatically by the protection device. Release the trigger level and wait till the
motor cool down (approx. 15 minutes) then start application again.
9.3 Connection the mains (Fig. 3)
Plug the appliance connection line into the safety switch/plug combination and secure it with
the cable relief.
The loop of the mains wire must be long enough for the cable relief to be able to slide from
one side to the other.
9.4 Starting up (Fig. 4)
 Press the safety lock button A of the switch/plug combination and then pull the trigger
lever B against the bar. The motor will start and the tines will begin to rotate.
 Keep the switch lever hold while release the safety lock button.
 To stop the appliance, release the trigger lever and it automatically returns to its start
position.
9.5 Tips
 Move the application to the work area prior to starting the motor.
 Hold the application firmly while switch on.
 The tines will pull the tiller forward during operation, press the carrying handle to lower the
tines slowly.
 By pulling tiller back towards yourself, the tines will dig deeper and more aggressively.
 For breaking sod or deep tilling, allow the tines to pull the tiller forward to the end of your
arm’s reach, then firmly pull the tiller back towards you. By repeatedly allowing the tiller to
move forward and then pulling back to you, the tiller will be most effective.
 If the tiller digs deep enough to stay in one spot, gently rock the tiller side to side to start
the tiller moving forward again.
 For preparing seed bed, we recommend using one of the tilling patterns shown in Fig. 5:
 Tilling Pattern A
– Make two passes over area to be tilled, the second at a right angle to
the first.
 Tilling Pattern B – Make two passes over area to be tilled, the second overlapping the first.
 To prevent tripping take particular care when moving backwards and when pulling the
tiller.
10 TRANSPORT
Warning ! Before transporting the application, switch off the motor.
The tines and the unit maybe damaged even if you move the application with the motor
switched off, e.g. over solid ground. Prevent the tines from touching the ground by carrying out
the tiller by its guide bar.
