 Do not use near underground electric cables, telephone
lines, pipes, or hoses. If in doubt, contact your utility or
telephone company to locate underground services.
 If the unit strikes a foreign object, stop the motor,
disconnect the extension cord, thoroughly inspect the
machine for any damage, and repair the damage before
restarting and operating the machine.
 Do not overload the machine capacity by cultivating too
deep in a single pass or at too fast a rate.
 Stay alert. Watch what you are doing. Use common
sense. Do not operate cultivator when you are tired, ill,
or upset.
 Be aware that the equipment may unexpectedly bounce
upward or jump forward if the tines should strike buried
obstacles such as large stones, roots, or stumps.
 Extension Cord – To reduce the risk of disconnection of
appliance cord from the extension cord during operating,
it is possible to tie the extension cord and power cord in a
knot to prevent them from becoming disconnected during
use. Make the knot as shown in figure 1, then connect
the plug end of the power cord into the receptacle end
of the extension cord. This method can also be used to
tie two extension cords together.
 Make sure your extension cord is in good condition.
When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy
enough to carry the current your product will draw. A wire
gauge size (A.W.G.) of at least 14 is recommended for an
extension cord 50 feet or less in length. A cord exceeding
100 feet is not recom mended. If in doubt, use the next
heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier
the cord. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line
voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating.

 Start the cultivator carefully according to instructions from
a normal operating position and with feet well away from
the tines. Do not force cultivator. It will do the job better
and with less likelihood of a risk of injury at the rate for
which it was designed.
 Unplug the unit before unclogging the tines and when
making any repairs, adjustments, or inspections.
 Never operate the equipment on a slope.
 Use extreme caution when pulling the machine towards
you.
 Store Idle Appliances Indoors — When not in use,
appliances should be stored indoors in dry, and high or
locked-up place – out of reach of children.
 Maintain Appliance with Care — Keep tines clean for
best performance and reduce the risk of injury. Follow
instructions for lubrication and changing accessories.
Inspect cultivator cord periodically and, if damaged, have
it replaced. Keep handles dry, clean, and free from grease
and oil.
 Keep Children Away — All visitors and bystanders should
be kept at a distance of at least 50 feet from work area.
 Use Right Appliance — Do not use appliance for any job
except that for which it is intended.
 Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) protection should
be provided on the circuit(s) or outlet(s) to be used for the
gardening appliance. Receptacles are available having
built-in GFCI protection and may be used for this measure
of safety.
 Don't grasp the exposed cutting blades or cutting edges
when picking up or holding the appliance.
 Check damaged parts. Before further use of this cultivator,
a guard or other part that is damaged should be carefully
checked to determine that it will operate properly and
perform its intended function. Check for alignment of
moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts,
mounting, and any other condition that may affect its
operation. A guard or other part that is damaged should
be properly repaired or replaced by an authorized service
center unless otherwise indicated elsewhere in this
manual.
