So far I can’t complain outside of the gear selector being a little difficult at times. If you re engage for a second it sometimes allows for an easier time selecting another setting.
This design has been around for a long time. I had a Weed Eater brand that was built in 1995 that i finally replaced last year because it was just worn out. They are pretty good machines but you need to store them in a shed or some kind of building to keep the gear change mechanism from rusting up. And put grease on the axle shaft so the wheels dont get rust welded on.
@@friendlyrooster1 yes 8-9” deep is my guess on the depth I can get under the right conditions. I’ll be on new ground next year that’s got a bit more clay in it so I’m not expecting the same results but in the ball park.
@@friendlyrooster1 I was hoping to add a picture but idk how to do that or maybe it doesn’t allow it. But I made a few passes at the new place and I was only able to get 7-8” so my guess of 8-9 was optimistic. My apologies there and hope it didn’t steer you in the wrong direction.
@@doubleahomestead7794 Thanks for trying. Even 7-8" is good enough. Most tiller will only till 6". Also the type of soil makes it easier or harder to till. Greatly appreciated.
I agree. If I made the video year 1 it wouldn’t be surging. I used fresh gas and stabil when stored. In our area finding non ethanol wasn’t possible. We now have a place near by that sells it so I can store them with that. I believe the surging is a direct cause of the ETH fuel with stabil. I’m sure if I clean the carb it’ll be just fine but it doesn’t bother me enough to spend my time doing so as I have a lot to do. Perhaps after this season is over I’ll do that.
Bought this tiller about a month ago, great tiller so far, starts on first pull, really strong does everything I bought it for

I love mine
Does an awesome job
Looks about like my Troy Bilt horse. I live in North Arkansas, very rocky. It about beat me to death trying to break new ground!
So far it’s been pretty easy on the body
O I know what I want, but it really hasn't been built yet
Does it till up to 11" deep as claimed?
I would say i was able to get around 8-9”.
@@doubleahomestead7794 Wow 8-9" is nice enough. Just to make sure, you mean 8-9" DEEP, not 4-5" of fluffed up top soil that looks like 8-9"?

That thing surges a lot, I don't like surging engines.

Mine does this out of box
