Tiller Another Tiller Post

I posted on here a few days ago about Caroni tillers and I got good feed back about them. Rural King a local farm store chain had them for $950 and if you signed up for their credit card you 10% off and 6 months same as cash, so I bought one I have not got to use it much but so far I like it real well. It is a 56 inch. I did have to put all the gear oil in it and set the hitch up, but it only took about a half an hour to do. I realize you live in Texas but you can order on line from Rural King.com. Just a suggestion if you are interested.



Go ILLINI!!!!

Hey Milkman
Looking at a tiller myself and I have a BX2200- do you need counterwieght on the front with the 60" KK tiller? I believe the manual on the BX says use a 42" tiller but I'd go at least 48". I don't have a FEL.
Thanks
SamR

Alan,

I just bought a KKII 60" for my DX 33. I have tilled two gardens with it and it works well. It is a heavy unit and does an excellent job of tilling. For the money they are a good buy. I have looked at a lot of tillers and this was the best value for the dollar. I used a 48" Rhino for 5 years on a lot of gardens and yards. It was a good tiller but just wasn't haevy enough for some of the things I was doing. I like the idea of the gear drive and the slip clutch over the shear pin too. I don't think you can go wrong with one. It is simply a raw piece of machinery with no frills.....it gets the job done.
