The chain is fine...but I ordered the wrong size. Nine links of the chain I ordered equals six of the size I wanted. My error...
How can I straighten out the springs? I can't use them coil uo as is.

Breaking new ground or revitalizing a neglected garden plot is exhausting work — unless you have the right machine. The HomeDIYer 32.5" Heavy Duty Power Tiller is engineered for serious growers, homesteaders, and landscapers who need to move fast across large areas without sacrificing depth or thoroughness. Powered by a 212cc 4-stroke OHV engine producing 7.0 HP, it drives six counter-rotating hardened steel tines through compacted clay, rocky loam, and sod-covered ground with authority.
The tiller measures 48.5" × 32.6" × 38.3" assembled and weighs approximately 107 lb (48.5 kg). Six tines at 13.5" (343 mm) diameter churn soil to a width of 32.5" (825 mm) and a depth of up to 10" (254 mm) in a single pass. Self-propelled pneumatic wheels carry the machine forward as the tines dig, reducing operator fatigue on plots up to a half-acre or more.
Typical use cases include preparing large vegetable beds before spring planting, incorporating compost or amendments into existing garden soil, breaking up compacted lawn areas for reseeding, and clearing weedy plots for new landscaping projects — all scenarios where a lightweight cultivator simply won't cut it.

This 7HP rear-tine tiller is built for compacted, clay-heavy, and even virgin soil. The 6 counter-rotating hardened steel tines provide aggressive bite. For extremely hard ground, moisten the soil a day before and make a shallow first pass at 4–5 inches, then a full 10-inch pass.
Yes. The rear-tine design is self-propelled — the drive wheels pull the machine forward as the tines dig, significantly reducing operator fatigue on large plots.
The engine is EPA-certified for all 49 states except California. California's Air Resources Board (CARB) enforces stricter small off-road engine emission standards that this model does not meet. It ships freely to all other states.
The engine uses SAE 30 motor oil. The transmission uses standard SAE 75 or SAE 80 gear oil — no special NLGI 000 grease required.
The tilling width is 32.5 inches (825 mm) and the maximum tilling depth is 10 inches (254 mm), making it ideal for large vegetable beds and new garden plots.
The tiller comes with a 3-month manufacturer warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship. Within the first 7 days of delivery, quality issues qualify for a full refund or replacement with return shipping covered by the seller.
The tiller arrives partially assembled. Typically you'll need to attach the handlebars, add engine oil and fuel, and check gear oil before first use. The included manual provides step-by-step instructions.
This machine is optimized for large plots (1/4 acre and up). Its 32.5-inch width and 107 lb weight make it less maneuverable in tight spaces. For small raised beds or narrow rows, a smaller front-tine cultivator may be a better fit.
