Welcome to TBN. You will have a better description if you list the type and model of your tractor and tilller. Somebody will likely have the same set up and/or befamiliar with the one you have.:thumbsup:

Choose a flat area to park it. With tiller raised, lower the jack stand leg. Lower the tiller. Unhook the top link from tiller and secure to tractor. Unhook PTO, depending on type of PTO collar you either need to fully depress a button on the collar or fully push the tractor end of the collar rearward. With the button depressed or the collar depressed pull rearward on the PTO shaft to disconnect. Unhook both lower links and you are done.

Hope this helps.

First step is to turn off the PTO
Second Step. Verify that the PTO is off

Now follow the other instructions ^^^ :thumbsup:

Agree with the others that more information is needed. A photo would be great. How the PTO shaft connects to the tractor is another essential bit of info.

What, specifically, is causing the problem?

If the tiller doesn't have a built-in stand then measure the distance from the front of the tiller to the ground and cut a 4x4 post that length (probably 12" (30 cm) or so. Place the post to keep the tiller from falling forward when everything is disconnected.

You'll have to lengthen or shorten the top link to free up the top link pin. Remove the pin and secure the top link out of the way.

Then remove the PTO shaft at the tractor connection. A push pin or retracting collar are the most usual securing devices. (Later, store the PTO shaft in two pieces so it doesn't rust together and can't be extended.)

Remove the lynch pin on each side of the lower lift arms and slide the arms off of the tiller's lift pins.

Everything should be unattached now. Drive away.
