Great clear & concise video for the tiller. We love our Pioneer tiller, it's a beast!

Thank you for this video! I'm running into a LOT of belt slippage in CRT mode doing sod in loose soil. I've tightened the cable adjustment to near max and it still slips under moderate to heavy load. Is this problem in the video likely? It's brand new. I feel like the belt SHOULD be able to stall out the engine.

Purchased this tiller on May 1st 2022. Lasted about 30 minutes and it stopped tilling and pulling. Took back to dealer and pulley key missing and screws loose on pulley. The repaired it and I returned home and several hours later started up and run like new. Lasted 20 minutes in loose soil and same thing happened.
