Read articles →This one's about the Land Pride RTA1274 tiller running behind an LX3310, not a deep tractor review. Chris covers hitching with a quick hitch and bushings, forward vs. reverse tine tillers, chain vs. gear drive tradeoffs, tilling depth (four to six inches), avoiding long grass wrap-up, and dealing with chaff buildup after tilling. Useful for buyers comparing tiller types and implement setup rather than tractor specs.
Appears to be an owner-operator (Chris of Huckabones Equipment) sharing hands-on experience using his own tractor and implements on his property.
Reverse tine does a nicer job and pulls the tractor backward like two passes at once, but jams easier on fist-size rocks. Forward tine can push the tractor on slopes.
It will go four to six inches deep, but realistically only go to about four inches max to make a proper seed bed for lawns or food plots.
Tillers don't like long grass and will wrap it up, requiring 30 to 45 minutes to clean out. Stay six to eight inches from edges and cut long grass first.
Yes, bushings are needed to go from category one to category two, otherwise implements with a PTO shaft will pop out during use.
