Bolens rotavator

Recommended Posts

These Bolens are white in colour but often unsympathetically repainted in red and blue and sometime orange :jaw:

 

Not sure about the plough set up as I couldn't make it out in the photos but no matter I will know more when I collect it soon......;)

Oh right thanks that's good to know so someone dragged it here from America at some point and painted it, I prefer original but if I had to paint it I would have done something a bit more interesting ah well!

 

comin to collect ha ha you are a very funny man Andrew, I'll kill you last ;)

red is the best, makes them look somewhat like a wheel horse:lol:

Looks like I missed out on all the excitement last night. That looks like good HT20 and worth saving.

 

If Andrew's having the tractor and Chris the tiller, then the wheel weights must be mine :)

That is a very heavy flat top tiller to fit Tube Frame models

 

Better than the lighter duty round hoods

 

I have 2 of each. Dont know why?

It doesn't appear to be a tube frame tiller, with the right lift bar, I think it still be made to work if the axle ears have the same spacing you had the right drive shaft
