Kubota BL 52C tiller

schuller · Apr 20, 2012

Yesterday I hooked up my Kubota BL 52C rotary tiller to my Kubota B7800 tractor and found that although the pto shaft is turning ok : the rotor on the tiller is not turning. When I parked the tiller last spring after tilling the garden it worked fine. The tiller got very little use since I bough it new perhaps 2 hrs.
in total and is practically new. I read the instruction manual over and over but can not figure out what is wrong. Oil levels are good. Any help will be very much appreciated. Thank you.

Shear pin snapped....... check tiller end.

Not familiar with that tiller, but I'm thinking clutch slipping, or key/pin sheared off or missing? Chain drive or gear?

The Bl 52C Kubota tiller apperently has no shear pin. Thanks for the help.

Schuller if you could, can you post up some pics of your unit, specifically
the tines, but the whole thing in general? I am looking at a used on and
I am not sure what the tines should look like or if it is missing anything.

I hope you found a resolve to your original question...
