B2320 first time till with LP0550

[Verticaltrx]

The tiller is a 50'' tiller
RTR0550 model. it is also reverse tine rotation... The tiller will work with the BX and the B. I read the manual through and you must change the hitch point depending on what class hitch you have.. and tractor size
I know some others have said they have trouble with this tiller and the driveline angle on the B. I have not had thoese problems my PTO shaft it the right length though and Im running the slip clutch model not the shear pin.. the tiller maybe over kill for my current needs but I have hopes to have another garden spot soon..
BP is right the tiller is not the only way to go when putting in a garden.

Thanks for the input. Maybe a B2620 would be the way to go for a 60" tiller. The one they have is a Taylor Way which is a decent sized unit. Have been using it on a JD 4400 and 5045e. I should probably put it on my B3200 and see how it fits/works since it has the same hitch/pto geometry as a B2320-2920.

On float: way I learned is to work any area you want to smooth a bit then float your FEL & back drag. Settle tractor to position, watch bucket lower & level bucket at grade then push joystick full forward past 'detent' & you'll kind of feel it float, then back drag. I like bucket really flat to grade but it will move some stuff. It works if you go slow and watch & I use it when I don't want to reverse to use back blade...but light leveling. It is perhaps a less intimidating way to feel float than forward floating as IME the latter wants a bit more level surface to play with or yer back where you could benefit from bucket dig/curl...but I'm new at this & trying not to break stuff.

To the gardener: you can do that with backblade & FEL? My back blade does dig...
