Starting a Flooded Engine
1. Place the cultivator on a flat surface.
2. Move the ignition switch to the ON position.
3. Move the choke lever to the ‘run/ warm start’ position.
(see Figure 7)
4. Hold the throttle trigger fully depressed in fast position.
(See Figure 10)
5. Pull the recoil starter handle repeatedly until engine
starts and runs. This could require pulling the recoil
starter handle many times, depending on how badly the
unit is flooded.
6. If the engine still does not start, allow the unit to sit for
about 15 minutes, and repeat steps 1-5.
NOTE: This cultivator is equipped with a centrifugal clutch, so the tines will not turn until the engine speed is increased.
To increase the engine speed, lift up on the throttle trigger. (See Figure 10) To slow the engine down, slowly release the
throttle trigger. Completely releasing the throttle lever will return the engine to idle and will stop the tines from rotating.
1. Release the throttle trigger and allow the engine to idle
for a few moments. (See Figure 10)

Adjusting the Drag Stake Position
F
The drag stake adds resistance when cultivating which
makes the unit easier to control. It also can be adjusted to
change the depth of cultivating. To adjust the drag stake
position, follow the steps below and refer to Figure 11:
1. Remove the detent pin
2. Slide the stake to the desired position, aligning the hole
in the stake with the holes in the support bracket
3. Insert the detent pin through the holes to secure the
drag stake.
NOTE: For the deepest cultivating depth, set the drag stake in
its lowest position. This will give the greatest resistance and
allow for the deepest depth.
Adjusting the Wheel Height
G
1. Loosen knob.
2. Move the wheels up or down.
NOTE: The upper position is for cultivating, the lower position
is for transport
3. Tighten knob securely after adjusting the wheels to the
desired height.
NOTE: If the unit still doesn’t start, refer to the
TROUBLESHOOTING section of this manual or: If you
