Greeting. That cultivator was originally produced in Germany under the name Agria. However, it also came to our territory (former Yugoslavia - Serbia, Bosnia, Croatia...), where it was produced under the name IMT 506, and it was produced by the IMT factory from Serbia, which bought the license from Agria from Germany. I also own one, which I restored, and use regularly for my purposes. You have a couple of videos on my UA-cam profile, so you can see how we work and handle this cultivator.
OK Adrian, I have lost count. How many children do you have living now at Faber Farm & Glass works? Love watching the updates. Thanks for taking the time.
I was good, no swear words, just kind encouragement, caressing the throttle lever gently, explaining softly that it is safe in it's new 'forever home', and it will be loved and cherished as if it were my own child...... It works. Now we can help it overcome some of it's little issues.
Well, I think so. I have, during the course of my life, started a very wide variety of engines. Before we put it in the car, it started and ran strongly, after I got it out of the car, it just would not. Now, after resting a while, and I have done nothing to it, it starts well. I have no other explanation.
That engine looks like it might also been us on motor scooter too. That is a tool with lots of character
I haven't yet worked out what sort of engine it is, but I suspect it turned up in a lot of different applications.

Thank you for that, I will take a look!

Currently, there are 4 children and 6 grown ups, they do not live exclusively with me but share themselves around the neighbours.
That would make a great Go-Kart engine! You should think about that the rest of the day.
Or I could fit it with the optional trailer and seat....
No wheels on those dudes. Crank it up and hang on!
If I can find a pair, some had wheels instead of the blades and a plough attachment mounted where the 'tail hook' is on this one.
I think it's the rule for 2-strokes of any agricultural kind. "I'll start if I feel like it". Certainly how my chainsaw thinks.

open up the muffler and stuff some more asbestos down there. That's a good Sunday afternoon machine.
We don't run machines like this on a Sunday! We have town regulations against that, but the rest of the week is fine.
Did your rototiller get "car sick"?
