I have about 2 hours operation on it. It was running fine then died and will not start again. Ive done everything the book sugests but no results. Can anyone help?
First make sure the motor isn't engaged when trying to start it, and If it has been sitting for awhile, (in between seasons), It's likely that the carb is clogged, try cleaning it out, make sure the spark plug is firing correctly. And if it's getting spark, and its getting fuel, but still wont start, then the carb may need adjusting.

First check for spark, if you have spark than you can try spraying a little fuel into the carb and try to start it if it starts then dies its the carb

Mine did the same thing....two things to check: 1) air cleaner, make sure that it is clean 2). gas filter in the gas tank. Take a short piece of wire and fish the black line out. On the end is a small fuel filter. After I flushed mine fuel filter out it ran fine.

tilt the back of the tiller up and check for a rock or stick wedged in between the tines and the shield

You need to check your engine oil on a very level surface.
Its all too easy to over fill these engines with oil and the results can spell disaster if not rectified. On a level surface, with the machine level (not tipped forward) the oil should just be reaching the top of the threads for the bung. Any more than that and you have to much in.
This symptom can also be caused of incorrect storage .ie the machine being left on its side allowing oil to fill the exhaust box.
Check your oil level first then run the machine until the left over oil in the exhaust box has been burnt off. I would then advise either replacing the spark plug with a new one or cleaning your existing one and checking / replacing your air filter
