      If your Mantis Tiller isn't reaching full power, it could be due to several factors. Check if you're using a proper extension cord suitable for operating the product. Also, the power source, like a generator, might have too low voltage; try connecting to another power source. Lastly, ensure the air vents aren't blocked and clean them if necessary.
