    Default Suhweet!

    Just picked up a Befco T50 258 (Manual says it is a print from 1998) and a finish mower (not sure of the brand yet) from the boss for $650. Tiller is nice and faded from the sun, but everything is in working order minus a missing wheel on the finish mower.

    Never used a tiller before, but that should work well coupled to a Massey 1533, right? Soil has no rocks and it fairly sandy.

    Mower is at the boss' house

    Coincidentally, there is a Woods finish mower sitting behind the tiller we thought was the one he was letting go

    I'll grab a pic of the tiller. Anything we need to check out maintenance wise on it before using it? Ultimately, I would like to paint it red to match the tractor.

    This thing has probably not been used very much, just weathered.

    Nice, I am envious! You got one of those "deal of the centuries"!! From what I see around in here my area, I think you got two attachments for the price of one. You should probably work a little harder for your boss for that.
    Nothing could be finer than riding my JD790 in South Carolina!!

    Grease the PTO shaft. Check/fill gear oil in right angle gear box. Grease the right side auger shaft bearing. Make sure the chain case on the left has grease in it. When I got mine used, I took the cover off cleaned out all the old grease and replaced with new. Nice find

    One more thing... make sure to loosen up the slip clutch and make sure it slips.
