What to do if the rotor of my Land Pride RTA1558 Farm Equipment won't turn?

  Amy MercadoAug 18, 2025
  If the rotor of your Land Pride Farm Equipment isn't turning, there are several possible causes. First, ensure that the power take-off is engaged. If it is, check if the drive chain is broken and repair it if necessary. Also, inspect the driveline shearbolt and replace it if it's sheared. Lastly, verify that the friction clutch isn't slipping; if it is, reduce the load to the tiller.

How to improve insufficient tillage depth with Land Pride RTA1558?
- K
  Katie ToddAug 28, 2025
  If you're experiencing insufficient tillage depth with your Land Pride Farm Equipment, several factors could be at play. Make sure the tractor 3-Point arms are lowered, as the tiller might be carried by the tractor. If the tractor has insufficient power, increase the tractor rpm. Adjust the skid shoes as needed. Check if the tines are worn or bent and replace them if necessary. Ensure the tines are correctly installed and clear any obstacles entangled in the tines and/or rotor. Finally, relocate lower hitch clevises if they are in the wrong position.
