    8n Jubilee and rototiller

    Thanks for the comments. From what I'm seeing, the tiller itself is way, way slower than the PTO. Would it be possible for someone to have put the gearbox together backwards? Thus slowing the tines down instead of speeding them up? I've never taken apart a gearbox but would it be a crazy idea...

    8n Jubilee and rototiller

    I got a rototiller today and hooked it up and the tines are spinning crazy slow in relation to the PTO. I guess there is gearing in there that seems to slow down the tines, whereas I'd expect them to be way, way faster. I'd estimate that it takes 5-6 seconds for the tines to rotate fully. The...

    1948? 8N not starting - basic parts ID please (have links)

    Hi. Note: I'm updating this list as answers come in, and as I find out from the manual / other reading. I have what was told to me was a '52, but I think from the stamping, it is a '48?. There is no ignition key for this model, and it doesnt seem that there ever was one. First off...
