As always, you all put together a well made and informative video. You probably mentioned it in a previous video, but I hadn’t realized Tractor Basics was owned by Skid Steer Solutions. I have not been disappointed with any of the partners/vendors/suppliers you’ve recommended and your trusted work and trusted research saves your viewers time from having to do our own extensive research.......How much water is in the pond this week?

@TractorTimewithTim 9 месяцев назад

We stopped filling at 6 days for a variety of reasons. About 3-4 ft.

@user-li2jl3vw6w 9 месяцев назад

You could take the front vertical angle iron pieces off of the shipping pallet then add some caster wheels. The result would be a dolly the you can store the tiller on. I try to make dollies for all of my implements. It makes storage much easier.

A quick attach and implements modified if necessary is a great thing, but I just realized that an added hydraulic top link is the cat's meow! 😻 Or like the frosting on a chocolate cake. Even on a nice flat surface.

I have heard you say how much time it takes you to get ready for a job. Loading, unloading your tractor. Well I did my first job free just see if I like doing it. Well I love the attention I got for the tractor I love that I could help a senior cancer, patient. The getting ready not so much. But I will do more free jobs because I do like helping. They are already people asking.

@TractorTimewithTim 9 месяцев назад

Right! Lots of fun doing the projects for folks. This more than offsets the pain of getting ready :-)

I have a 4 foot 4 tine per flange chain drive tiller and love it. I just build a house and used the tiller to landscape around the house and i hit so many rocks, i just open the rear gate and watch them fly out the back, four broken tines but the chain is fine, plus id rather buy new generic chain and sprokets at any store then break a gear and try replace one of those, i have never ever had a problem with chain drive so i will continue to buy them!

@mymorristribe 9 месяцев назад

Mind blown! I had no idea that putting my PTO selector in mid would free up the rear PTO shaft.

@stephenlehr6020 9 месяцев назад

Really like that you can remove that PTO shaft guard on the tiller from the outside, wish they were all like that!! My "cheaper" tiller had a plastic guard with bolts that mounted it to the face of the gear box, almost impossible to get your hand, let alone hands, in there to push the spring bolt over to release the PTO shaft. Course I didn't remember that that shaft had TWO spring bolts for some reason, that you had to push at the same time, to release the PTO shaft...... Fortunately the guard was plastic.... which came off in several pieces...... which allowed me to see the TWO spring bolts 🙄. Now I will need to make a better guard for it, hopefully before I am going to use it in the spring. Had to remove the PTO shaft for a longer one, as I wanted to be able to use that tiller with the quick hitch this year (and in the future), as the shaft that came with it was just long enough without the QH the first year. 49HP tractor with extendable rear links, needs longer PTO shafts as it is...... things you learn later with ownership of a tractor, that you didn't know might be a concern, as PTO shafts that come with many rear attachments seem to be on the short size, for the "larger" compact tractors. Always happy to see the kitties around!! Have a good one!! 👍

@douthitfarmsalabama 6 месяцев назад

Great video, that tiller sure looks a lot like my IronCraft UL.

@jccorder1 9 месяцев назад

On my Kioti DK I can just pick up the implement first and then rotate the driveshaft to get it on. I helped a neighbor put his tiller on a 1023 Deere and we had to do that, but it was pretty hard with such a small working area.

@TractorTimewithTim 9 месяцев назад

With the 1023, you coulda put the lever in ‘mid’, and rotated the tractor shaft. Much easier than rotating the implement.

@unclealansyard5176 9 месяцев назад

I'm excited up learn more about this brand as a new tractor owner. Plus I have small amount of land and can't justify large cost for implements for the little use they will get.

For greasing surfaces like splines, bushings, and PTO shafts, I have the tub/can of axle grease with a flux brush in it. The flux brush is just about perfect for putting sufficient grease on with out any excess on you...I already get greasy enough off the FEL joints.😂

@andrewbreaker8999 9 месяцев назад

In uk we would call that a rotavator, they were pretty common for vegetable hrowers in the 70s and 80s, some companies still make the larger ones for large scale vegetable growers and some potato growers. Whats the idea of thr extra hitch frame on the linkage??, why not put the rotavator on the link arms?, i have seen those frames on larger hp tractors that dont Have linkage arms as such. Great video

@danandfaith 9 месяцев назад

Just looked at the gear drive tillers you talk about in this video. The spec sheet shows 20-40HP for the 48”, and 25-40HP for the 60”. The spec sheet doesn’t specify if that’s the PTO horsepower, or the tractor. I’ve got an LX2610, but have been holding off on a tiller, as I plan to upgrade to an LX3520 in the near future, as the extra horsepower will be useful for some other attachments I use, and I’d rather buy a tiller that is well matched to the future tractor.

@TractorTimewithTim 9 месяцев назад

5’ would be fine for the lx3520

@SpartanZapp 9 месяцев назад

i actually have my tiller offset so i can hug my fence better and make the turns easier since my loader doesnt come off.

@itas0r 9 месяцев назад

Tractor Basics stuff looks good and the prices are nice...but the shipping kills the deal. Shipping on the $900 48" box blade is $576 for me. Might as well just get a $1500 box blade at a local dealer. :(

It will not. The Solectrac has only 13 PTO hp max. Very disappointing PTO power.

@4pwjohnson 9 месяцев назад

I so enjoyed this video that I bought the 60" unit. I was unpleasantly disappointed that the unit is NOT made in the US and even more so that the welds on this unit were lacking to say the least. I have always enjoyed Tim's videos, but would not recommend this tiller for anyone wanting a "well made" unit. This doesn't mean that I will be any less of a fan of TTWT, just not this unit.

@TractorTimewithTim 9 месяцев назад

Unfortunately, I did NOT know that the tiller was not made in USA until after the video was published. …in fact, after the SECOND video was published. I KNOW it is not a high end expensive tiller, but I have not noticed any insufficient welds. I’m sorry that your experience did not meet expectations.

I hope that I didn't come across as angry. I'm not. Keep up the good work. As far as the welds go, time will tell. Have a blessed Christmas and thank you for the response. @@TractorTimewithTim

@amossnowdaharleyman9179 9 месяцев назад

Just me but when something is steel frame packaged and has metric fasteners I tend to question just how "American Made" it is.Shockingly some "manufacturers" will bring in an import unit,do light assembly,fill it with oil and call it "American Made". Show me the factory to convince me. And it'd better have more than a couple of screw guns in it.

@Drew-in-NoDak 9 месяцев назад

That thing is definitely not made in America. The packaging screams china, and the cheesy short head metric bolts on everything also are Chinese. I bet you this Tiller is in a similar situation to Edison motors golf cart call out. For those that don't know, at the fully charged show they found a company claiming to make golf carts in Canada. And selling them for over $30,000. They found the identical golf cart on Alibaba for only 2000. All that company was doing was assembling them and slapping a made in Canada sticker on the side. They even got one of the employees to admit that it was just cheap Chinese stuff.

You may be right. I have removed the "American made" statement, as I'm told that this is not correct. It make take a couple of hours for that phrase to be removed from the video. I was told the tiller is made in Italy.

@blkburbanz71 9 месяцев назад

At the 10:50 mark of this video, it shows your wheel weights. I have the same weights and got them through my JD dealer (70 lb). I see this in your situation as well, but those weights have no relief in them to allow you to get access to your valve stem to check the air. I asked the dealer and they could only say it’s the correct wheel weight for the tractor. I’m thinking of machining the weight to give me access. What are you doing to get valve stem access?

@TractorTimewithTim 9 месяцев назад

I have valve stem access with mine.

I have a Frontier 49” tiller for my 1025r. It’s cheaply made. The manual is for three different tillers and the chain case has an upper hole/plug to put fluid in and a lower plug for the level. So I buy some gear oil as the level was down. I dump and fill to the lower hole. Next day it’s all over the floor. Come to find out the 49” has no seal and the chain case will not hold oil. The other bigger models in the manual do have seals on the lower bearing. So now I probably will destroy that bearing as it’s soaked with oil running in the dirt. Sure enough on the tiller label… Made in China. Not happy with the frontier product! And to lube the chain I take the top plug out and pump some grease on the chain as it’s turning.
