i just bought a Parmi Tiller for little more than the cost of the motor, which runs very well. the previous owner had replaced both belts and prolly used a size too small for the drive belt, and turned the transmission belt in the wrong direction. after adjusting tension and turning the transmission belt around i found that the tines were locked, or partially locked up. ok so i tried to remove the tines by pulling the axel pins out, but lo and behold they will turn a bit on the shaft but they will not remove!.. my question,,, is there a hidden retainer that holds the tines on the shaft?. i cannot find any reason for them to remain, but i must have missed something, because they just set there no matter how hard i hammer, and i don't want to damage the tines or the shaft. thanks for your time. john weaver
