perry 82 #1 Posted August 3, 2008 keep your out when looking at old walk behind roto-tillers. you just may find a set of knobs that will fit a mid 70's wheel horse automatic belt ingage handle. seen a old sears tiller reverse handle that was close but the plastic knobs are longer. so when your rummageing threy the junk yards dont be so quick to pass them tillers up. you can notice the WH handle resembles a roto-tiller reverse handle.

BPjunk 184 #2 Posted August 3, 2008 Perry, The same goes for old lawn mowers. I have seen guys bid on them just to get the knobs because they were the same as the Wheel Horse 603 throttle and choke levers. Wild Bill in Richmond, Va. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

perry 82 #5 Posted August 3, 2008 What am I missing? your knobs are there. the ones on the belt ingage handle. i just used your pic as a reference. alot of times you see the knobs missing. i allways thought the knobs would look good made out of wood.

GlenPettit 1,714 #6 Posted August 3, 2008 The 1963 knobs (Choke & Throttle) are identical to the mid-60's, and also used on the John Deeres, but only Ivory in color, and are being remanufactured.
