Tillers Again

[jon edwards]

It is cold and snowy here, but not enough snow to plow. So I am playing on the computer and looking at tillers. I sold my 72 inch KK with I used for 6 years. It worked great but I want a bigger tiller. I am looking at the John Deere 681 and the Land Pride RTA 3576. My tractor is a Case Farmall 75c. I got to looking on the Case website and they have tillers also. I was looking at the TL180H 80 inch tiller. I can't find much of any information on these. Does anyone know anything about Case Tillers or the other ones I am considering?

Thanks

Ok I got my new John Deere 681 a few days ago. It is awesome. Big step up from my old tiller. I'll post some pictures in the next day or two. If you have a lot of stuff to till, this is a great tiller.

That 681 sure looks nice.

Here are a couple of pictures from the day they delivered the tiller. I have been using it and it works great. I'll get some more pictures on the tractor and the results.

I'll get some more pictures on the tractor and the results.

Pictures of the soil after working it over would be cool.

Here are a few more pictures from tonight. The tiller works great, but I need to use it more to figure it out a little better.

The John Deere tillers are made by Sicma and the Frontier tillers by Maschio. Both companies are going to India for parts and in some cases the finished product. You can look on YouTube for Maschio tiller and see a tour of their factory in India. If your looking for a top of the line tiller get one of the Kuhn EL series. 62/82/92. They are built in France. The lighter duty Kuhns, the L43 and L53 are made in Brazil. Why am I saying all this? Cause if I'm going to get a tiller manufactured in India I'll get a Farm Maxx and save some big money! The Indian attachments at the farm show last month looked darn nice. No need to pay the middle man a big pile for basically the same product. The south Korean Ansung tillers are a great value. EA sells them as their brand. They are hard to beat for the $$.

Don't know about all that, but this one works great for me.

Actually that is kind of funny. I looked up Sigma Tillers they look exactly like mine. The funny thing is they are made in Italy and so is my Case Tractor. That is cool.
