Tiller HELP My new used tiller turns the wrong way

[D7E]

Just buy some proper feet , they are not expensive when planting potatoes we used to change 4/5 sets a year .

I found this older TBN thread about a similar subject.

So, it looks like you bought yourself a blade aerator, which is meant to cause minimal disturbance to the surface...the opposite of what you want

I think that is a reverse action tiller. Go to landpride, you will see they make a forward and reverse spinning tillers. I looked into said and if I were to buy a tiller I would hands down get a reverse action tiller.

Give me more info, take a clear large format pictures of that label and ANY and all other markings. Look hard.

I agree its not a normal tiller. I would think you could do as in post #2 and flip the entire gear box and axle's thus reversing the units operation. Seen it done before.

Go to alibaba.com Type in Rototiller, look at 900+ pictures and hope to match, along the way you will see this. Maybe pull a blade and take clear pics of it, email these folks and ask for repair parts and can they lead you to the manufacturer of this this exact tiller. Perhaps email in english and in Chinese as well, ( not hard, just find a online auto-translator (BabbleFish?) , be sure to ask them to reply in english. :laughing:

If you got the Horse Power the reverse rotation may be desirable.

It sure looks like he has a tiller set up for rice cultivation...look at this:

It sure looks like he has a tiller set up for rice cultivation...

I now think so too. Perhaps the tines can be changed to a more conventional type. Here is a site showing tines identical to those on the OP's tiller.

Member bjr said 4 years ago that he has reworked gray market rice tillers over to regular tillers.
