I'm looking for tiller advice, and I've searched the old threads but haven't found anything on point.
I've got a Deere 4115, which has 19hp at the pto. My land is rocks and sandy loam, mostly rocks. The rocks are rounded granite fieldstones, from baseball to beachball size. The photo shows a wall (one of many) that former owners and farmers made of them. I am anticipating that initially I'll be stopping to pull rocks out of the tines every few feet. And one of the places I'll be tilling is alongside the stone walls to pull out the roots of the vines that grow back faster than I would have believed.
I cannot reverse the pto direction on this tractor. Are there any tillers with reverse gears so that I can back the wrong size rock out of the tines?
Brand recommendations? I have a Green and Orange dealers nearby, but I'm willing to go further afield. I think I'm looking for an all-gear, slip clutch tiller. Right?
