There's nothing like a gormless person to bring a bit of entertainment now and again. So here goes, I've got a Howard 350 rotavator that you cant use wrongly. It goes forward and the tines at the back dig the dirt. But now that I've got a Landmaster Super 88 with the tines sticking out the front I dont know wether I shold push it or pull it. I've tried both and it seems to dig deeper if I pull it. After the tears of laughter have stopped flowing and someone can focus on their keyboard again p'raps someone could tell me which way to go.
Ta.

you use it the same way you may want to hold on a bit tighter and raise the handles slightly to get the tines to dig in.holding it back makes it chop up more . treat it like a very large dog in handling lol

Thanks lad.
You'll be pleased to know that I've brought my hoes home and sharpened them ready for the war on the weeds. I think I'll light up my flame gun in a minute to keep warm, it's damned cold in the workshop tonight.

i got bought one them heaters from asda ten quid .makes my shop into a sauna .then the water comes down n rusts all my tools lol guess where the fire is now? prefers the heat from sweating doing jobs

That's true, paraffin produces loads of water and soaks everything. I tried electric heaters last year and got a staggering leccy bill. Now I've got a wood burning stove, I've been informed that wood produces dry heat. I've got to fettle it and make a new baffle as the new one has rotted away. I'll make the new one out of 1/8th steel plate, not the 30 guage stuff the original was made of. I'll make a side compartment too for cooking a bit of grub, that'll save me going indoors when I get hungry and getting verbally abused by the missus for spending too long down here. Then I'll get in trouble for burning all the wood down here and leaving er-indoors up there in the cold. At th'end of the day you just cant win. P'raps I'll put a stove in my shed over the slug farm and then I can spend more time there.
