PILOT 2 Cycle Tiller/Cultivator
Stopping the Engine
Turn the On/Off Switch to the OFF position.
Never stop the Engine by moving the Choke Lever to the CHOKE position. This could cause an Engine backfire resulting in
Engine damage.
Operating Procedures
The Tines Drive Clutch will transfer maximum power after about two (2) hours of normal operation. During this break-in
period, Clutch slippage may occur and is normal.
The Tines should not rotate when the Engine is idling; if they do, contact us at www.DRpower.com for instructions.
Use the DR PILOT 2 Cycle Tiller/Cultivator without placing excessive body weight on the machine. The unit operates most
efficiently with the weight of the machine itself.
Use common sense when using the machine. Learn to recognize the change in sounds when it is overloaded. Turn off the
Engine immediately if the machine becomes jammed to prevent damage to the drive system.
Handling and Transporting
Never lift the machine while the Engine is running.
If you must use an enclosed vehicle for transportation, remove the fuel into an approved container; never siphon fuel
by mouth.
