Information About the Honda 800 Tiller

Honda, headquartered in Tokyo, Japan, started in 1948, and it has different divisions, ranging from automotive to aerospace to consumer power equipment. An example of a consumer power equipment product is the Honda FRC800 rear tine tiller, which is a push-behind tiller. You can purchase Honda products from authorized resellers. The FRC800 tiller was first released in 2002.
  1. Features

    • The Honda FRC800 rear tine tiller is a self-propelled tiller, which makes it easier to navigate over rough or uneven terrain. It comes with a front bumper, which protects the belt cover, starter and engine, and it also decreases the wear caused by trailer loading. You can set the tiller to run at different speeds. The controls are color coded, and the machine features a reverse lock-out option, which keeps the tiller from going too fast when you have it in reverse.

    Specs

    • The tiller comes with 14-inch tires, which help you navigate hills and different types of landscapes. The handle is in an ergonomic loop shape, and it comes with a rear shield, which protects you from flying debris. You can change the setting of the depth bar control to increase or decrease tilling depth, and it has a drag bar. The tines on the tiller are 12 inches thick for deeper tilling, and the debris flap and tine housing are also thick for maximum protection. The tiller weighs 275 lbs., and the tilling width is 20 inches.

    Engine/Transmission

    • The Honda FRC800 comes with a Honda GX240 series overhead valve, four-stroke engine with a cyclone air filter. This filter lasts longer than traditional filters, which increases time between engine service dates. The engine produces up to 8 horsepower. The transmission has three forward and one reverse gears, and it has clutch disengagement levers, which allows the engine and the clutch plate to move independently of each other. This is a chain-driven, multi-speed transmission.

    Warranty

    • You receive a three-year warranty, which covers defects in materials or workmanship. You must register your product on the company's website to qualify for the warranty. This tiller is for both consumer and residential users, and both of these groups receive the same warranty.
