Re: Who has a Tiller Atatchment, Opinions?
Box Blade. On a normal 3pt you can adjust the shackle to tilt the boxblade. good for first drafts on roads and such... But all 3pt adapters I looked at, and most of the powertrac toys, do not seem to have tilt built in. Someone was going to try and make a PT adapter with a tire rim to create tilt. Never heard if that happened...
Anyway, it is to tilt the box blade. Lackendar added a couple of attachment point above and below the level point to allow angle work...

Re: Who has a Tiller Atatchment, Opinions?
Here are some pix. They are not very good and I am not at the tractor until the end of the month... I am sure Ken will get you better pix before I get to...
That price quote has to be wrong, unless Steel has gone through the roof. I think mine was $425 plus $65 for the adapter plate... And cause i bought so much from him he reduced the pricePower-Trac 1850, grapple, hoe, 90" mower, 72" box blade

Re: Who has a Tiller Atatchment, Opinions?
Unfortunately, I just dropped mine off a couple of hours ago to a local welder to have the attachment plate removed and the correct one put on at the correct angle. This was the first one Lackender made for this size tractor and he made a mistake when fabricating the plates. Fortunately, i caught the mistake before Woodland Farms had his shipped. A friend was going to weld mine but he has been recovering from knee surgery and having a rough time of it. I finally could not wait any longer so I gave it to the local welder. I have a couple more attachments that need to be corrected as well.

I think the tiller works better if you connect the hydraulic hoses so the tines dig from the bottom up instead of conventionally top down. Land Pride makes BOTH kind of tillers and they recommend bottom up.
On Monday a friend showed me an old walk behind Sears tiller from an auction that digs bottom up. He says it is the best small walk behind he has ever used and he wouldn't go back to the conventional style for anything. When a tine catches a rock on the way up it tends to pop it out. When it hits a rock on the way down it tries to pound the rock downward through the hard base underneath.

You then flip the switch for the the PTO, and the hyd fluid is sent to the new valve. In the neutral position the hyd fluid is routed back to tank. In the forward detent the tiller will till in the normal way. If it becomes jammed on a rock, just pull the valve handle back to neutral, and then pull the valve handle back to reverse the tiller.
Caution.
This maybe a safety issue some how. Pt might be worried about the tiller slinging debris back toward the operator.
One of the guys said that Terry said that the tiller motor was not reversible. If this is true, then there is no fix, except to replace the tiller hyd motor with a bi rotational hyd motor.
