thanks for the view and comment. i was trying to test if small front tine tiller could break up hard-pack clay/tiff, and how long it would take. i did have someone come with a tractor.

@@mrwilson4909 I have a good bit of experience with several types of front tiners and one rear tine job as well. I also have to JD 1025R that I use with its backhoe attachment to breakup virgin weedy, rocky terrain. So I can use my tractor to dig up the hard stuff and then use the little Earthquake to smooth out the broken up stuff. That's my plan. I guess we'll see. Thanks for your reply.

how things were it worked pretty good. difficult part was the first dig to depth [ about 6 inches] once at depth things were somewhat easy. would have been better if it had rained and make the ground a little softer. taking plastic cover and outer tines off for cleaning is extremely easy. overall, easiest machine to use....start, use, clean, maintenance.

the machine should do the work. it is extremely heavy, and a hydraulic tiller unlike a gear/chain driven system. my 2cents on the project. go shallow and make several passes. less chance of getting roots entangled in the tines and cutting them out. best of luck on the project.

thanks for the question. you need to raise the depth gage[L-shape link] and lower the drag link [straight shaft first 2 or 3 feet you may need to push down on the handles to sink the drag link in the ground, from there it will control itself. i use the depth gage usually on 2nd or 3rd pass. i have drag link at least 1 hole lower than the depth gage. hope this helps. let me know if you have more questions.

@Mr Wilson Thank you. That is only thing I can think of is to set the drag as deep as I can hoping it slows it down. It's my garden spot from last year so softer ground but at 6'1" 290 it runs away from me so far. I'll play with the drag bar.

@@MikeinBNA i had the same problem as well. thats when i played the drag link. best of luck

thank you for the question. yes it is necessary. the oil is for the transmission - turning the wheels AND spinning the tines. it is a chain driven system. think of a manual transmission in a vehicle. you can operate without for a short while, but will burn up the transmission. feel free to ask any question you may have. thank you again

​@mrwilson4909 I never found specks on oil for either the motor or the transmission. The manual sucks as far as that goes. It doesn't even tell you there is two oil sumps.

i was able to plant corn. strawberries plant did grow, but no berries. i think animals kept picking them off. thanks for the question.

thanks for the question. if you overload the trailer. scissor lifts mounts/brackets will break. the telescope system is seemingly indestructible. trailer frame will bend or tires blow out before the telescope system breaks. i think overall, telescope systems are better - lifting capabilities, resell. with gooseneck also help with weight distribution. there is a video where some guys severely overload a scissor lift and telescopic lift about 20k past their limits. hope this answers your question.

Go telescopic. They will lift more weight than the trailer or axles can handle. They are the slowest but will never not lift the load. Anything over 12ft should be telescopic

i paid about $850usd

this thing is a tank. the tines both spin forward and reverse which is great when you get rocks caught up in the tines. the machine is extremely heavy in weight suggest using heavy duty ramps. given the tines go forward/reverse AND front wheels go forward/reverse and its durability it is worth the price. i would have killed any other tiller tilling on the rocky soil.

glad my video could help. i posted a video with a 260b digging out a tree stump. overall, keep in mind the machine with attachment is about 1800 pounds. its a light duty machine.

@@mrwilson4909 closer to 3500 lbs. I've got the same machine.

yes. it is amazing back dragging while floating.

i paid roughly 15K.

i have had mine for a while now. i have used it a few times to chip away at ice in the driveway. HH is a good investment.

thanks
