How much HP do I need to run a 60" tiller and a 60" rotary mower?
Would a 3215 be enough tractor?
I would like to stay 60" or less in width of tractor if possible.
Thanks for any ideas or suggestions.

I would expect it would. I have a Kubota L3700, which is not much more HP and Kubota specifies a 60" tiller for it. I pull a 60" rotary cutter and have plenty of power even in high grass and heavy brush.

+1 Use both just fine on Kub L3450& L2550.

If you go HST, you'll be fine. I'm running a 6' tiller and brush hog on an L3710. I have a neighbor doing the same with a slightly bigger geared tractor and he spends a lot of time shifting.

My 3215 has plenty of power to run my 60" Bushhog mower. My track width is 61" with R4s.

I use a 58" tiller with my 3215HST with no problems. Most likely could use of a 72" tiller with out any problems. So yes you would be fine with a 60" tiller behind a 3215.
