If there's a rototiller attached to the tag, take a few steps back and take a photo of the whole machine. I've found that the same tiller is sometimes sold under the name of several different brands.

Welcome to the forums.

Here is "some" info: It's a Howard rotovator. Howard made good tillers. The Howard group is part of Kongskilde Industries currently, I have read. It helps if you tell what information you are looking for.

Sounds good I definitely could have been more descriptive in the OP. What would be the minimum hp tractor range for operating this. My dad sold his old white 60 hp tractor which it worked great with and I'm looking to get a tractor to utilize it.

Alternatively i might sell it to get a smaller tiller for my application and was wondering a fair price to list it for.

Old rule of thumb for the Rotavator was 1 HP per inch of width. Although my brothers JD 3020 would handle an 80” Howard in lowest gear. Was awful heavy and required a full stack of weights on the front.

Some newer tractors have slower gearing that work better for tillers.
