OT - Remoal of concrete from tiller?

TBprnaa · Sep 2, 2010

Any ideas on removing a large piece of concrete that wedged in large tiller? Will need to remove it at work in am. Lucky, slip clutch did its job but old piece of a building or slab (has wire / rebar in it)really stuck. Could not pry it out. Chisel & maul? Any ideas helpful. Thanks.

Air hammer

I like that better than hammer, etc. I think another of our locations has air tools. Thanks.

If you have bolt-on tines, how about removing a few tine bolts?

Heat will damage concrete. Put a torch to the chunk of concrete. My opinion it would be better for the tiller than pounding on it.

Can you remove the tine bolts and get some slack?

Can you manually back up mechanism at the drive pulley?

Thanks to all of you for good ideas. Will try to remove it in the morning. If tine(s) come off easily, one or two should free it. Old building / site materials left behind from demolition on a park site (several inches below surface). Chunk is wedged so tight I could not turn shaft, tines, etc. ThanKs again.
