Maybe its time for the rototiller

[vettemanwight]

Well with much thought and looking and almost buying a DH tiller I really think its time. I was at the local TSC on friday and they have $100 off on large purchases, now the dilema. I have a Kubota 4310 with industrial tires on the rear tire width is 63 " TSC has the 6' for $1799 minus the $100 or $1699 or the 5 ' for $1449 minus the $100 or $1349. Now $250 is a considerable savings for only 3 inches. The rear wheels are already as cloase as they can be. Just looking for your opinon, I think I know what Im gonna do just looking for othe opions. Thanks V

I'm pretty sure most every one will tell you to get the 6' so your tracks are covered. But then again it's easy to spend other peoples money. I lucked out and got my 6' KKII this spring for $1500. They were having a tax sale so I got a speco quick hitch with the money I saved.

Don't make the mistake of getting one that don't cover both tire tracks.

You really should go with the 6''er to cover your tracks. You can also get closer to edges of foundations, etc. for making flower/garden beds. Jay

My tractor is 63"+- wide at the rear and I have a 60" tiller. Works great and no tracks are left. It seems to rip into the soil so well, it somehow covers the tracks. That being said, if I had the horsepower you have, I'd be buying a 6' tiller.

Well guess what ? I was at my local TSC yesterday checking out the clearence items and they just happen to have 2 DH 6' tillers in their clearence items !!!!! Go figure.... as tempting as it is I passed on them Im going to wait and get a KKII when they have them on sale. V

I was looking at the KK tillers today at TSC and noticed that it had a black pto shaft with "made in PRC" stamped on it. First time I've see this. I hope when you get yours, you'll get the Itallian made shaft on it.
