Resumen del manual
. . the lightweight wonder that’s changing the way we garden. Unlike big tillers, your MANTIS Tiller weighs only 24 pounds (11 kg). So it lifts easily, handles smoothly, tills and weeds precisely. And, unlike other small tillers, it features serpentine tines that churn soil to 25 cm deep. It creates a soft, smooth seed bed, even in problem soil. Once you know how to use your tiller correctly, we guarantee you’ll love it. So first, please read this manual. It shows, step by step, how to use your tiller safely. Plus, it shows how the MANTIS Border Edger can make light work of your edging needs. If you have questions about any topic in this Manual or if you wish to order MANTIS attachments, contact your local authorised Mantis office.
