How to Unlock the Wheels on a Troy-Bilt Tiller

Troy-Bilt tillers have self-propelling wheels that make the task of tilling less strenuous on your back and legs. A safety mechanism built into the tiller locks the wheels when the engine is not running and the wheel speed is engaged. Unlocking the wheels on a Troy-Bilt tiller requires adjusting the wheel speed and drive levers correctly.

Instructions

- 1
  Place the drive lever in the neutral position. The drive lever is under the center of the handles, and it is the lever you move up or down for forward or reverse.
- 2
  Position the wheel-speed lever in the neutral position. The wheel-speed lever is between the engine and depth lever, and it is the lever you move up for faster speeds and down for slower. When the wheel-speed lever is engaged, the wheels lock until the engine is started. Move the lever to the center position.
- 3
  Move the Troy-Bilt tiller forward or backward while moving the speed lever to the neutral position. This helps unlock the wheels during the process.
