While powerful, very large rocks or dense, embedded stones may impede performance and potentially damage the rotors. It is best suited for soil that is predominantly earth, with occasional smaller stones.

This product comes with an extended 5-year domestic warranty (Terms and Conditions apply).

After use, brush or wash off soil and debris from the rotors and chassis. Ensure the engine is cool before cleaning. A damp cloth can be used for tougher residue.

While it has maneuverability features, its power and working width are optimized for larger areas and tougher soil preparation. For very small, delicate gardens, a smaller or electric tiller might be more appropriate.

Check fuel level, ensure the fuel cap is not too tight (allow air in), check spark plug is connected and clean, ensure the primer bulb has been pressed if applicable.

Ensure all bolts and nuts are tightened, check rotors for damage or uneven wear, inspect for debris caught in the rotors.

Ensure the engine is running at full speed, check for blockages in front of the rotors, verify the correct gear is selected for the soil condition.

Ensure the transport wheel is functioning correctly, check for obstructions around the wheels or chassis, ensure the handle is set to a comfortable position.
