My Craftsman 5HP Mod 917-299252 reartine tiller will go forwards & backwards, but when put in till, the gears jam. Lost my parts book. Help!
Any instructions on repairing the transmission on a Sear roto tiller with rear tines? Thanks JPW The Sears website has all of the manuals on-line for their tillers....Just fixed mine, a 17 inch rear tine....the #35 drive chain broke inside the case.....I would put it in gear and nothing.....the repair is kind of a PITA but I saved money....parts were $112....new tiller $784.....you can do the math....I just took my time and it really wasn't too hard.....the 20 some-odd bolts that hold the cases together suck......Can you say,"WD-40 is my friend?".... Before digging into the transmissions on these tillers. Make sure the handle is adjusted properly. This can cause the control rod to be at the wrong angle and not allow the transmission to work while tilling or going into reverse. If your lucky this is the quick and cheap fix for your tiller. If not have fun taking it apart.
Looking for the manual for Craftsman Yard Pro Rear Tine Tiller model 130202 Type 312901 Code 87120107
drain the oil out of the engine,turn the tiller upside down to lubricate the upper slide shaft of the transmission case
The user guide or owner's manual can be downloaded from snapper and sears with the model number in pdf format and you can save it.
where can I get tines for M#917242484 tow behind tiller
It is a tiller that can be operated without the use of a tractor and it will loosen up the ground making it easier to plant seeds for growing in a garden.
The purpose of a rear line tiller is to churn up the ground in order to prepare it for use. It's a very simple and efficient way of getting it done. You could possibly purchase one from a feed and seed store, or a Tractor Supply store.

We just purchased a rear axle and the cost was $300.00. That does not include repairing, just part.
