My daddy gave us his it's a 1989 model they are a beast ! Best tiller ever!

Did you really need to film this at The Grand Ole Opry. Can’t hear a bloody word you’re saying, which is made worse by your mumbling.

What year is the twelve fifty come to that

My neighbor just gave me his. He bought it in 1976.

i like

Woo this is so quite! Well done!

I had a pony troybilt. Love that machine. In 200 I bout a tractor I needed for my bigger property. When he was over to visit around 2000, my brother in law spotted the tiller in the corner of my pole barn. It was all dusty with 2 flat tires. But I could tell by the look in his eyes he knew exactly what he was seeing! Oh yes, he coveted it. He knew its value. Of course I gave it to him, and the manual etc. We used the bucket of my new tractor to lift it up into his his truck bed. He had all fixed up in a few weeks and their garden was lovely thereafter!

Knowingly, this is 6 yrs ago, but do you still have the sandblaster booth? If yes, can you tell me how your sand pickup tube is done? It looks like you took the bolt-on feed tip outta of the bottom of the booth and just put it in the sand, rather than screwing it in the bottom first, and then attaching the hose. So, what are you doing exactly to feed the sand into the gun? I have the exact same booth and always found that the sand flow surges when the feed tip is bolted into the bottom. It’s like the difference between the uptake and the gravity flow of the sand down to tip is inadequate. In other words, the booth design is not the best, and the feed tip with only 6 or 8 tiny holes in it just doesn’t allow the proper flow rate to the gun. The manual says 80psi and online sources say 80-100psi. Those and even lower psi settings don’t really affect the flow of sand if the feed tip is always the problem. Not ranting, just looking for another/better way to use the feed tip, like you have…. Thank You

Could you leave a link to where you got your owners manual,repair manual, and the parts manual from, I’m going to be restoring my cub cadet, also your restoration looks amazing.

I think the lights will look great on it, good job!

I hey freind where can i buy old troy horse built

Great build! I’m starting my first build (a 73) and you sure do inspire! Do you mind sharing the brand and size and source of your front and rear tires, please? Thanks

This is probably the best workbench in the market for the price. I have already used it for a couple of projects around the house. I can store it my garage when not in use and unfold it whenever I need work on it. The build seems very sturdy. I especially like the the two clamps that comes with it. Honestly, I have not explored all the features of it yet, but having used it just for some wood work is already a lot of fun. I would recommend it to any DIYers.

Hi, do you still have the cub cadet?

If I put one of these 7hp kohler on a mini bike how fast would it go

What does the lower handle do? I have an older 74 with no decals or a manual. Thanks for your time!

The music sucks?

Advice on the first time breaking ground: DO NOT LET GO OF THE HANDLES until the ground is well broken up and there are no sticks or rocks in the ground. EXPERIENCE!!

They velicity is in tines, don't is i'm the wheels?

Awesome tip on a steering box thanks.

Nice job looks really good.

Ok that is the best way to determine spacing on a feather board that I've seen. Subscribed!

I had the privilege to work on one of these great machines and it was awesome.

FYI, most of those paint strippers are highly carcinogenic. Anything with tetra chlorine is bad news. It's actually crazy that they still sell the stuff knowing that it gets washed down the driveway into the reservoir . An alternative is to get a sand blasting wand for your pressure washer. It might even be easier. It sucks the media up into the stream of water. You can buy them on northern hydraulics.

i bought a few cub cadets that have the K161 engines. I was wondering what coil I should install . Do you have any opinions ?

Please excuse my ignorance because I have very little understanding of these electrical systems so perhaps I need to have a "basics" tutorial first before listening to your lecture. Can you give me a clue how this whole system works so I can follow along ?

I am in no way a great wood worker but what you did has inspired me to try to do something similar THANK YOU

Do you remember where you bought the paint from?

You are having way to much fun...

Polarizing field windings is to simply strengthen and polarize the field magnets. No need to have the regulator involved in that process.

Spent may days growing up running that same tiller in my mom's garden

You did an excellent job on the repaint.

On a cub 110 & 127 do I need oem regulator or, can I substitute

Volume up, Volume down, Volume up, Volume down. Difficult to watch as had to keep the remote handy as kids sleeping & didn't know when the music would explode again. I finished watching without sound! Thanks anyway.

Just picked one up at an estate sale with a Kohler K161 7hp engine. What a beast.

Your music was irritating

Beautiful restoration job! Those old engines are tough as pine knots! I have an old Troy-Bilt tiller and it had a Briggs & Stratton 10 horsepower engine on it but my brother made an adapter plate to fit the Kohler and I rebuilt the k181 put it on there and that 10 horsepower Briggs & Stratton engine couldn't hold a candle to the old Kohler! Enjoyed you video, I see this video is 8 years old, so I pray you and your kohler are still running like new, Thanks my friend for sharing!

where did you get all the parts from?

Could be a typo, but the instructions in this video say to jump field to battery for an A circuit. However, the original tractor manual says this will damage the regulator.

Looks great! I run synthetic oil in all my cubs, seems to help them run cooler

Have the same tiller, mine has cast wheels. Somebody stole my bulldozer blade . Mine is a 63 model. Still run Great !

Question on the hydraulic pump. I have a 69 S-12 and the pump is leaking and the valve actuator is sloppy. Who did you say made the pump and did you find a source for parts?

Some of the "Cub Guru's" out there say the generator is polarized as soon as you turn the key. 🤷🏻

where did you get the replacement (gray) tine guard? Mines a mess as it got caught in the tines one too many times.

Thatll be me tommorow

What is the bar sticking out the front of the tiller used for?

Don't ever get rid of it. These are built to last. Mines from 1972. Same engine. Still runs like a champ

The ghost gardener.

I still have mine but it's about time to change the belts

You oughta see my 6 foot 55 hp John Deere green tiller...it's pretty awesome too.😁 But seriously, I have three Troybilts one is electric start and that are great.😉
