Disc Harrow Using a Tufline disc harrow with a Simplicity Garden Tractor

[Ebie]

I have a 27 HP Simplicity Prestige Garden Tractor. The engine is rated at 725 cc. I am looking at a Tufline Disc Harrow I would like to use with my tractor. The disc harrow has 16 " notched blades. It has 8 discs and cuts a swath of 52". Weighs about 350 pounds. Does anyone have experience with a garden tractor like this pulling a disc harrow? I don't want to buy this thing and have trouble with traction when pulling it.

You have a diff lock on that tractor and plenty of power. Good R1 tires on the rear, or chains will help with traction. So will loaded tires or weights. I have pulled quite a few different attachments with various JD garden tractors of the same size as your Prestige in the past with a lot less HP. They will pull a plow through unturned soil fairly well, so that small disk shouldn't be a problem.
