Does anyone know how long Howard has been around? I have a tiller that I think is Howard that offsets to the right so you can run along fences or buildings. It has a slip clutch and fast tine speed. Leaves the ground fluffed up like dream whip. It does not attach by 3 point. Rather it bolts to rear with 4 bolts over the PTO. Uses the bolts where the safty chains are. I know its harder to put on and off than usual but does a good job for $20. All I've had to do is replace a seal. It has what looks like Howard red-orange but I;m not sure. No numbers or label. It has a wheel to the left rear that adjusts up and down with screw handle.

: Howards have been around since the early 1920's and are the benchmark for solid performance. Expensive but very tough. I have used once and by accident turned across an asphalt road while moving very slowly. The tractor grunted a bit but the asphalt was turned into black gravel. It sounds like yours may have been built to be a universal type of mounting on non 3pt tractors. Some were driven by a flat drive belt from a rear pulley. Think Howard used to be distributed in the US out of Harvard Illinois. Good Luck. Tom
