ABSTRACT:
A rear tined tiller having a guiding handle which is readily adjustable vertically and laterally and wherein adjustment of the guiding handle position may be controlled by a handle position control lever attached to the free end of the guiding handle and readily accessible to the operator. The guiding handle is also supported for pivotal movement through a 180.degree. arc about a vertical pivot axis for storage and transport of the machine. The handle position control lever is also connected to the traction drive and the tine drive mechanisms to interrupt power to both the drive wheels and the tiller tines during adjustment of the guiding handle position. Linkages are further provided for shifting the traction drive mechanism between forward and reverse and the tine drive mechanism between a neutral mode and a driving mode, the shifting linkages including a single control lever and providing for shifting of the tine drive mechanism to the neutral mode unless the traction drive mechanism is in the forward driving mode.
