Tilled the garden and it doesn't seem very deep to me. I have the adjustments on the tiller at max depth. What am I doing wrong? Does the top link have any affect on depth?
Thanks

If you till more than once you will notice the depth increases as the soil gets looser.

That's why some take a subsoiler or such to the garden to break up the lower depths. As a practical matter a tiller maxs out about 5" deep. All that fluffed-up soil on the top is deceptive /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif
