Old Tiller

[andy685]

I've come across an old Steiner 3 Point RotoTiller. I'd never heard of this brand and when I look them up they now build mid pivot tractors with front attachments.

Does anyone know anything about their old 3 point tillers. This appears to be a 48 inch. Tines turn, but its actually on its side and is pretty rusted on the surface. I don't know age or additional condition.

I'm wondering if its worth me contacting the owner about possibly selling.

I would question the gearbox and bearings. Tine wear might help you determine how much it had been used along with shaft movement.
I sure wouldn't pay much at all unless you could see it operating first.
I think they are still in business and would call to see if parts are available.

That's a good idea... thanks
