my buddy got this little tiller off the side of the road. tines were seized up wouldn't turn. Damn thing is welded shut.

I cut a hole in the gearbox & dumped in a quart of ATF. Let it sit for a while and worked it lose with a 3Lb hammer. Made a cap for the hole. got it running.


want to use it for my compost pile. my troy built is too big and rear tines makes it hard to work down a pile in an enclosed area. with this one I can chew the pile down roll it over and shove it back in the pen until I spread it in the garden. want to get a good jump on it this year
