I have acquired an old Howard Rotavator Machine NO. EM27359. It is a great machine but I have broken a tine and need replacement. I would like to buy several if possible. Can anybody help me?

That number must be the serial number not the model number! Take a good look at what tines are on the machine as there are several styles.

The machine is an E Series 2. Contact me at howardrotavtor2007@yahoo.com or phone 815-765-9505 for more information Markings on the tines will identify the blade part number.

Hi. Would you happen to have some sort of diagram or something to tell me the order of the tine installation on a HR30-155WU tiller? My helper took all of the tines off and don't remember how they was on there. Thanks!

Tillermaxx.com has the tines

Take a tine to a Farm Supply store for measurement. They should be able to order some.

If you are going to run it a lot, in tough conditions, I'd be buying genuine Howard tines, the cheaper tines just don't last as long.

Our tines are Boron steel from Spain and Italy. Howard does not have a distributor left in the USA.

That's odd, the Howard dealer that I get my tines from, is still getting Howard tines from some place ? but I have no idea where...
Kongslide owns Howard, maybe they come through them?

Original Howard tines for a HR-30 will have Howard and 3900/3901 stamped into the Blade for your tiller. If both are not there they did not come through Howard. Howard does not make their own tines, just as Ford doesn't make their own tires. Yes some Howards were assembled in England and France but that was in the late 70's and early 80's so their tines would have been sourced from those countries. Howard's primary supplier of tiller blades is CUMAR in Spain. If you see R2L or L2L stamped in the blades they have come from a supplier in California that is notorious for selling Chinese blades. We have CUMAR blades but can't have Howard stamped in them because of trademark restrictions.
