Figure 8. Tiller Depth Adjustment
NOTE: Tillage depth is dependent on ground hard-
ness, tractor speed, skid shoe setting, and tractor
hitch adjustment. Multiple passes may be neces-
sary to achieve tillage depth.
TILLER OFFSET
The RT tillers come with a fixed gearbox offset, so that
the tiller can cover a tractor width larger than its width.
The offset is to the right as sitting in the tractor seat. By
tilling in a clockwise rotation, tire tracks can be reduced
or eliminated. Below is a chart which outlines the trac-
tor width that can be paired with a tiller.
