TO TRANSPORT ROTAVATORAROUND THE YARD• Lift and move the tiller by the transport bar A.AROUND TOWN• Disconnect spark plug wire.• Drain fuel tank.• Transport in upright position to prevent leakage ordamage.CAUTIONFill the fuel tank to within 1/2 inch of top of fueltank to prevent spills and to allow for fuelexpansion. If petrol is accidently spilled, movemachine away from the area of spill. Avoidcreating any source of ignition until petrol vapourshave disappeared. Wipe off any spilled oil or fuel.DO NOT store, spill or use petrolnear an open flame.NOTICEBe very careful not to allow dirt to enter theengine when checking or adding oil or fuel. Useclean oil and fuel and store in approved, clean,covered containers. Use clean funnels.CAUTIONBefore lifting or transporting, allow rotavatorengine and muffler to cool down. Disconnect sparkplug wire. Drain petrol from fuel tank.ADDING PETROLFill fuel tank A to bottom of filler neck. DO NOToverfill. Use fresh, clean, regular unleaded petrol witha minimum octane rating of 87. You must mix the fuelwith good quality 2 stroke oil. Please refer to page formixture information. Purchase fuel in quantities thatcan be used within 30 days to assure fuel freshness. Ifyou will be storing the fuel (not recommended) youmust add a fuel stabiliser with the fuel, such as “FreshFuel” so that the fuel stays fresh.• Remove drag bar.• Tilt rotavator back and lay on handle bars.• Fill in the fuel, tighten the cap.• Tilt the rotavator back up.• Install the drag bar.12
STARTING ENGINEWhen starting engine for the first time or if theengine has run out of fuel, it will/may take extrapulls of the recoil starter to move fuel from the tankto the engine.• To start a cold engine, move the choke lever to theclosed position A.• To start a warm engine, leave the choke lever inthe open position B.• Press the priming bulb C repeatedly until fuel canbe seen in the clear plastic fuel return tube D.• Place your one hand on the lifting handle. Withyour other hand, hold the recoil starter handle Efirmly and pull briskly.• Once the engine starts, if the choke lever wasmoved to the closed position slowly move it to theopen position as the engine warms up.• Allow the engine to warm up for a few momentsif it was a cold start.• The tines should not be rotating with the engineat idle. If the tines are rotating, adjust the idlespeed correctly before using the tiller.NOTICENOTICEIt is important to prevent gum deposits fromforming in essential fuel system parts such as thecarburetor, fuel filter, fuel hose or tank duringstorage. Also, experience indicates that alcoholblended fuels can attract moisture which leads toseparation and formation of acids during storage.Acidic gas can damage the fuel system of anengine while in storage.Fuel stabiliser is an acceptable alternative inminimising the formation of fuel gum depositsduring storage. Add stabiliser to petrol in fuel tankor storage container. Always follow the mix ratiofound on stabiliser container. Run engine for10 minutes after adding stabiliser to allow thestabiliser to reach the carburetor. Do not drain thefuel tank and carburetor if using fuel stabiliser.13
