Default Re: Reverse or Forward Tine Tiller ?

Question, when tilling with a Kubota B2320, what position should the rear pto lower/raise lever be in, the middle or at the bottom? If I have it at the middle, the tiller raises up. Just learning the ropes.
23HP is that engine or PTO?

Also, never ever tilled soil...you might want to take it a little slower...like start with a proposed depth of 4 inches and then go back for another pass...
