TILLING - Recommended tilling depth is
15-20 cm (6 - 8 inches)
Install Tines with individual tines angled
forward, toward front of unit. (See Tine
Removal/Cleaning/Installation)
• Use a forward/backward motion to till soil.
Allow tines to dig into soil, then pull unit
back to break up and pulverize clumps.
Tilling depth is controlled by the number
of times the forward/backward motion is used in an area.
• Controlling tilling depth :
• Shallow tilling: Move tiller over soil surface quickly. Tines should be in
cultivating position.
• Deeper tilling: Move tiller over soil slowly. Allow tiller to work the same area
until desired depth is reached.
• Big Weeds/Tough Roots: Rock tiller back and forth over tough spot until the
tines slice through the roots or weeds.
• Digging Holes: Hold tiller in place, and
allow tines to dig down into the soil. Allow
tines to dig approximately 6 – 8 inches
deep, then lift unit up and out. Remove
loose soil with shovel or rake. Resume
digging with rotating tiller tines until
desired depth is reached.
CULTIVATING – Recommended
cultivating depth is 5-7.5 cm (2 –
3 inches). Install Tines with
individual tines angled rearward,
toward the operator.
(See Tine Removal/Cleaning/Installation) Allow unit to move forward slowly.
Pull unit back to cut vegetation and cultivate soil to desired depth. Repeat
forward/backward motion as needed.
