Clothing; Operation And Adjustment - Texas Hobby 300 Manuel De L'utilisateur

Maintenance of gear
The gear has been equipped with moisture/grease when sent from the fabric. In case that the stuffing box
starts to leak or breaks, it may be necessary to refill with moisture/grease. When necessary please refill with
Multifak e.g. EP-O until it runs out of the filling hole when the machine is placed in horizontal position.

Clothing:

When using the machine, wear tight-fitting work clothes,
strong working gloves, hearing protectors and boots with
non-skid soles.

Operation and adjustment:

Operation:
The Hobby 300 tiller is intended for use in vegetable
gardens and flower beds. It can also be fitted with various
accessories for a number of different uses.
Read the motor manual carefully, especially the part
about starting and stopping. To start the motor, give full
throttle, pump the choke and pull on the start cord until
the motor starts.
When the gear lever on the right side of the handle is
pressed down, the rotor blades begin to turn. It is
important to press the lever all the way down, i.e. towards
the handle, to ensure optimal tension of the belt which
transmits power from the motor to the transmission.
Depth skid:
The setting of the depth skid determines the blade depth.
The deeper the rod is set, the deeper the machine will till
the earth. The correct blade depth is the key to easy
cultivation. The setting varies according to soil
conditions.
For best results, cultivate the soil 2-3 times in different
directions.
Cleaning after use:
The tiller should be cleaned after use. Use the garden
hose to wash the earth and dirt off. Remove quick grass,
etc., from the blade shaft. The chassis identification
number should only be wiped over with a damp cloth,
otherwise it could get damaged. Avoid using a high-
pressure cleaner.
Note : The gear can become very hot
during operation
