Read articles →This one's about the setup headaches, not a polished demo: the owner cuts and fits the PTO shaft for a new King Kutter 48" tiller, hits a driveshaft failure when it's lowered (fixed by a neighbor welding it), and discovers the tiller isn't meant to center over the tractor's tires. It ends with a short first-till run in previously-worked garden soil, tilling 5-6 inches deep. Useful for buyers wanting real assembly/PTO-length pitfalls, not a spec review.
An owner-operator documenting their own trial-and-error setup and first use on their property, not a dealer or professional review.
Measure from the back end of the PTO to the middle of the notch cut on the PTO receiver shaft into the gearbox, with the tiller at its shortest, lowest position.
It was measured at the shortest point in the up position, but when lowered the shaft extended too far and pulled apart.
No, it is not designed that way. It is made to sit over and overlap one tire more, not square evenly over both wheels.
It tilled about five to six inches deep in garden soil that is tilled every year, so not rock hard ground.
