ASSEMBLY
ATTACHING THE J-HANDLE
See Figure 4.
The J-handle included with the cultivator attachment pro-
vides a barrier to assist the operator in maintaining a safe
distance from the rotating tines. If the power head to which
the cultivator attachment will be mounted does not have
such a handle, install handle provided.
Place the bottom J-handle clamp on the drive shaft as
shown. Insert the tab on the top J-handle clamp into the
slot on the bottom J-handle clamp.
Insert the end of the J-handle between the clamps so that
holes align and handle will be located to the operator's
left.
Push the bolt through the clamp and handle.
Install flat washer and wing nut to hold the assembly in
place.
Adjust the position of the handle.
Tighten the wing nut securely.

OPERATING THE CULTIVATOR
See Figure 5.
Hold the cultivator attachment with your right hand on the
rear handle and your left hand on the front handle. Keep a

to operate the cultivator attachment at full throttle. Doing so
consistently will shorten the life of the engine and drivetrain.
Partial throttle will usually be sufficient.
