Common Agri-Fab Tiller Parts

Agri-Fab tillers use rugged components built for tough soil, but wear and tear can happen. We stock genuine replacement parts to keep your machine working like new.

Recoil Starter

A worn-out or broken recoil starter can prevent the engine from turning over. If your tiller won’t start, this part is often the culprit. It’s usually easy to install with basic tools and works with most Agri-Fab models. Follow the steps in our guide to replace the recoil starter.

Tiller Tines

Tines take a beating and eventually lose their cutting edge. Whether you use a front-tine or rear-tine Agri-Fab tiller, replacing worn or damaged tines helps restore performance and ensures your tiller breaks up soil efficiently. Front-tine tines are heat-treated for durability and designed with sharp edges, while rear-tine tines are built for deeper soil penetration and are specific to rear-tine models. For help with replacements, see our guides on how to replace the tines on a front-tine tiller and how to replace the tines on a rear-tine tiller.

Drive Belt (Rear-Tine)

If your rear-tine tiller isn’t moving or the tines aren’t spinning, the drive belt could be worn or damaged. This belt transfers power from the engine to the wheels or tines, and issues like fraying, cracking, or slack can cause loss of function. See our step-by-step instructions to replace a tiller drive belt.

Common Agri-Fab Tiller Problems

Troubleshooting your tiller can help you avoid unnecessary part replacements. Use these resources to diagnose and fix common issues.

Engine Runs Rough or Misfires

Engine Leaks Oil or Gas

Leaking oil or gas is often caused by worn gaskets, loose hoses, or a cracked fuel tank. Ignoring leaks can lead to performance problems or safety concerns. Use our guide on how to diagnose oil or gas leaks to find the source and fix it.
