<font color=blue>It looks . . . like mine is a reverse rotation model</font color=blue>
I'm not familiar with that model, but one glance is all it takes to tell whether it is or not. Just look at one of the tines. If that tine is sticking straight down, is the sharper edge toward the rear (forward rotation) or towards the front (reverse rotation - or "counterrotating"). Counter rotating tillers always seem to cost more, and while they have some advantages (and disadvantages), I think the cost is the most important difference./w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif
