[RE-wrenches] Converting a old Troybuilt Roto tiller

[Wallace Stahl]

Dana,

You might get some good input from Steve Heckeroth at  https://solectrac.com/. as he has been doing electric conversions for years and settled on bigger tractors these days and I believe rototillers in the past.  A frequent contributor to Mother Earth News also over the years.
