Replaced tines,seals and bearing on Tiller

Finally done! I replaced all the tines, seals, bearings and a new chain so it should be good for another 30 years. Never found out what make this tiller is. The replacement tines are 3/4" longer than original and 1/8" thicker. I got them at tillerblades.com for $3 each! What a deal.

Just thought someone would like to see some pics. The entire tiller will get sand blasted and painted this summer when I have more time.


This is the replacement chain, the original has stretched about two inches of slack. This chain is same number of links and about half the slack in it.




New seals/bearings:


New tines:

It has been guessed at a Befco, Coroni, Maletti but really not for sure. All the seals,bearings and bolts on it are metric so I assume it was made in Italy with 95% of other tillers. Every part has been available with a little research for it luckily but not makers markings on it anywhere.
