Just inherited a Beaver S370. Would like to find a tiller and post hole digger for it. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Does the PTO turn clockwise? What is the 3 point lift capacity? Ken Sweet

Unless he's got the PTO reverser, it's CCW. Beaver is Cat0 normally and at least according to Tractordata can lift 1200lbs.
And pictures of this new to operator Beaver need be posted.

Nobody else has chimed in, so I'll share the little bit I know. The best bet is to scour Ebay, craigslist, and similar places. Call or email Sheaffer tractor (Lens12 here on TBN) and see what he has. Tractor recycling/dismantling yards may have one.
There weren't many machines built that had reverse rotation PTOs (The Kubota B6000, your version of the Beaver, and, apparently, some obscure Iseki machine) and were designed to use implements matched to their PTOs anyway, especially tillers. These small Japanese machines were originally engineered to run tillers in small rice farms, so do that job exceedingly well. There are tillers designed for the B6000 and your S370 that take the backwards direction of rotation into account. Consequently, the reversers are out there, but they aren't a "normal" item.
As a last resort, a retailer in Belgium sells them for 720 Euros, plus, obviously, trans-atlantic shipping. Yenibiz en Detail PTO reverser
As a last-last resort, I suppose one could get a fabrication shop to build a replacement auger, designed to rotate the other direction. It wouldn't be THAT hard to do with the proper tools, and may be cheaper than a reverser anyway.

The tractor store in Eugene Oregon often has parts available...but it is kind of hit or miss. It just depends on what he is parting out at the moment.
