LET’S BEGIN
• With the box upright, open the box and remove the
tine box and the loose parts that are at the top of the
tiller box. Do not remove any other parts in the box.
• Lay the box on one side and open the bottom aps.
• Return the box to an upright position (as shown) and
pull the box straight up.
• Leave the engine and throttle handle in the cradle to
assist in the assembly.
• Lay everything out so you can easily identify the
parts (see parts image and list on page 6).
Assembly
NOTE: Some of the photos in this manual do not represent your
tiller engine. They are for assembly purposes only.
• Take the lower handles that
you’ve just put together.
Slide them into the two
recessed channels.
• Make sure you insert them
from the rear of the tiller
(gasoline tank faces the
operator)... so that the bolt
ts along the back of the
housing.
• Slide the second 3-inch
bolt (T11) through the
second set of holes in
the short legs. Add a
lock
nut
(T14)
and tighten
nger tight until you’ve
completed assembly.
LOWER HANDLE ASSEMBLY
• For ease of assembly and
stability it is important that you
keep the engine assembly in its
cardboard cradle.

• Locate recessed channels
below the engine.

NOTE: THE LOCK NUTS ARE STAMPED. FINGER TIGHT IS APPROXIMATELY 1/2 TO 1-1/2 TURNS UNTIL YOU’VE COMPLETED ASSEMBLY.
To identify part numbers see page 6.
• Lay the handle parts within easy
reach. You’ll need one of the
handle clamps (T7) and one of
the lower handles (T3). Note that
the lower handles have a short
leg on one end.
• Fit the handle clamp along the
outside of the short leg. Line
up the holes on the clamp and
the leg.

• Choose one of the two 3-inch
bolts (T11). Slide it through the
rst set of holes — near the
elbow where the lower handle
curves. (Pictures 2 & 3)
• Now slide the other lower
handle onto the 3-inch bolt. Fit
the other
clamp onto the other
handle’s short leg. Add a lock nut
(T14) and tighten nger tight.
