60" tiller on 2305

[Backup]

Another update. Finally dried out enough to put the tiller to work. The 60" KK worked great behind the 2305. Initially I had the depth about 3" and it seemed to handle that without any problems, so I set it to max depth or about 5" or 6". The tractor would bog at times if I went too fast or got into a particular hard or compacted spot. Had to keep it slow and steady. I had about 100lbs in the FEL for ballast. It handled it fine, no problems lifting the tiller at the end of the row with dirt on it. I wouldn't want any less power though, it used everything I gave it. By the time I was done it was dark out so no pics. If interested I'll snap a couple when I do some more tilling.

If somebody finds this post when researching tillers on the 2305 I hope this helps. The 60" King Kutter tiller is certainly workable behind the little 2305. My garden is well worked with a rich loam, no rocks or clay. I don't think I'd want to bust a lot of sod with this setup, but it works great in my garden.

Well,I'll be the first to say I was wrong than,,good for you,,,,it is as I said though ain't it?,,,you woulda been better off with a four ft one that off set to one side,,but,,as long as you don't tear your tractor up,,,that slip clutch,,I'd set it on the light side,,,you just back those bolts off,EVENLY,you can take it off and back them off till it moves with your hands and than tighten up EVENLY a little at a time,,it shouldn't slip with reagular dirt,,but if it hits a real hard spot or rock or log etc,,it should slip,,the only way you'll knoww this is if you back it off and adjust a little at a time,,also,,don't leave it out in rain,,it might rust tight,,,thingy
