    Battery question

    Anyone know what the proper size battery is for a Bolens G-154/Iseki 1300F? The reason I'm posting this question here and not the Iseki forum is the last time I posted a question in the Iseki forum, it was two years before anyone replied, and that person was me.

    Anyone here sells/deals with Land Pride equipment?

    I'm trying to find out if I can order a slipclutch for their RTR0542 rototillers. When I bought the tiller, the salesman said it comes with a shearpin only. No slipclutch is available for it because the PTO shaft is too short. That doesn't make sense to me.
