Md# 19230 Bolens tiller need RPM

[MCS]

I have a Bolens tiller Model # 19230 tiller and looking for info on it. would like to know the RPM that it is supposed to spin at the drive shaft?

I believe it is 2000 RPM at the input drive shaft. I have the same tiller and am in the process of adapting it to my kubota BX1850 with a jack shaft and 3 to 1 pulley so I will be running ~1600 RPM. Thats about the same speed I used to run it when I had it converted to work on my large frame Bolens.

This tiller runs in reverse on the large frame as it is designed for the QT series tractors that have the motor mounted with the crank shaft facing the front.
