rotovator id if you can please
« on: November 08, 2009, 16:02 »
i purchased this off of ebay a few month back for my new allotment. it does work but the belt slips a bit and could do with a new one, however i dont know what make and model it is, im not sure if it is an original merry tiller or not, all i know is it has a suffolk engine.
any ideas anyone?

Hello,
   I have a hunch that it is a Qualcast Cultimatic Super.??..hiding under the coat of blue...

The Cultimatic Super had the Suffolk 98cc engine 98g14 and later, I believe, the aluminium A98....both in rotavator guise had fuel tank mounted on cowling top.

It looks to be an ex Suffolk Super Colt/Punch fuel tank that would have fitted on the mower handlebars retro fitted to the rotavator handles..  Perhaps a Suffolk 75cc  75g14 engine ex the same mower too.?? 

It's not a Merry Tiller.

For ref'...It looks to have the tines on the wrong side too...the tines should present the progressive curved side of the blades to the soil rather than a shear corner as in photo.

i just googled it in images and i would agree, thanks for the help by the way :)

do you mean the tines are on the wrong way around then? they just slide on so i bet they will go the otherway around

Yes, slide them off the shaft and swop them left to right and vice versa..

The machine at new would have had 4 tine units..ie; 2 on each side.

These were handed and also inner and outer types....hopefully the attached drawing will explain ;)
