4. The low profile frame, particularly on the offset side, is designed to enable easy working close to low inrow plantations, such as vineyards, nurseries etc., whilst fully respecting the vegetation due to its smooth lines, avoiding any hookups on branches or leaves. (All models)
5. The drive assembly is designed to standup to severe working conditions, in the true Howard tradition.(HR8 & HR10)
6. The rotor equipped with 4 blades per flange, requiring very little horse power, ensures a time saving for blade change - less bolts. (HR 4)
7. The Rotavator type rotor equipped with 6 P type blades per flange, designed for difficult working conditions. This rotor can be equipped with "L" blades or speed blades. (HR8 & HR10)
8. For the 1.0 m (70") HR10 Rotacadet version, designed for market gardeners and fine tilth preparation. The Rotacadet version is supplied with front wheels as standard. (HR10)

9. The blades mounted on the rotor extremities face outwards to ensure the maximum working width in relation to the overall width of the Rotavator enabling close working to inrow plantations. (All Models)
10-11. The Rotavators can be operated in line or offset on the right-hand side by simply repositioning the sliding clevis brackets. All types can be mounted onto tractors equipped with standard or narrow hitch. (All Models)
12. The linkage points and the top mast are mounted on the frame and not on the drive assembly, which consequently remains isolated from any stresses which may occur. The integral double skin frame ensures a maximum stability. (All models)
13. The rear mounted gearbox reduces the universal joint angle while placing the centre of gravity (the rotor) closer to the tractor. The Rotavator and the tractor form a compact unit to maneuver in confined spaces. (HR4 & HR8)
 14. The side plates are reinforced by press-formed ribs ensuring a maximum rigidity without adding extra weight. (HR4 & HR8)
15. In order to improve protection of the drive transmission both the Rotavator and the tractor, a safety clutch can be supplied as an optional extra. (All models)
16. Front wheels are available as an optional extra in order to control the working depth without use of the standard skids, and also to reduce the overall width of the Rotavator. (HR8 & HR10)
