About King Kutter implements I purchased a new 48 inch roto-tiller about 3 weeks ago. After unloading and filling the gear cases I was greasing it and noticed oil coming out of the tine shaft. I called the dealer right away and told him of the problem. Tiller was returned to dealer and I was told he would fix it or give me a new one if it came in first. I picked up my tiller again today and was told the tine shaft had a rough spot and tore the oil seal. Dealer replaced everything he thought would cause the problem. I haven't had a chance to use it yet but it is a heavy tiller and seems well made for the price I paid $984.00

I'm getting ready to do about the same thing to an old field about 40 yds by 100 yds and I'm going to plow first and then roto-till. I was wanting to know if I should spray the field first to kill all the weeds? Should I lime it first or after plowing and roto-tilling?

Looked at Caroni Tillers at a AG show last fall and the dealer was selling 48" tillers new for $1,000.00. They seem like a rugged tiller but I don't know how getting parts would be if needed. I priced a new one just a couple weeks ago and it was $1,000.00 also. I ended up buying a King Kutter for $984.00 just because of the dealer and parts availability.

Recently pruchased a moldboard plow for my B-2100. It's supposed to be a 14" plow but any way I measure it it's about a 16". What's the proper way to measure? This is a big plow on the B-2100 and when I tried it out it only cuts about a 10" furrow. I have my tires set in the middle position and the three point hitch as far left as I can get it and still plow straight. Maybe I'll just have to live with it but any suggestions may help. By the way the tractor pulls it easily plowing 8 - 9" deep in 4 WD with turf tires and loader on.

Just purchased a King Kutter roto-tiller 48 inch and when I went to hook up the drive shaft its too long. Has anyone else had this problem? Can a I just cut a couple of inches off myself? Would like to hear comments on King Kutter tillers also they seem to very heavy and reasonably priced. I paid $984.00 at New Alexandria tractor here in central Pennsylvania.

I have a B-2100 and am looking for a roto-tiller. Has anyone used a 60 inch tiller on a B-2100? The owners manual call for a 42 inch tiller but I can't find one that small. Have located a Kubota tiller 60 inch for $1000.00 owner says it has 5 hours on it and it is 4 years old but looks as new. Any comments on using a 60 inch tiller on this small of a tractor would be appreciated.
