Another great video,song and you make it look so easy. You really are a amazing lady. As my Dad would have said kinda a "Jack of all trades"! I do so enjoy all your videos. I look for them each day. I have learned alot from you and so many others on here. thanks for taking all the time it takes to teach us out here on the tube. I use to watch all the garden& cooking shows .. Haven't had TV for two years, don't miss it. I come here and learn what I need to know. No offensive commercials here.
Thank you for sharing that! I have an old (bought it in about '84) 7 hp. Troy bilt and in my old lady method of trying to keep stuff together it still runs though it has some issues. I am going to try this because the belt is clearly ready to go! I hope it is this easy. Great video and awesome tune with it!
rear tine walk behind tillers are wonderful for saving yourself from back pain. :) Mine is a 40 year old Ariens and is basically the same machine except the handle bars swing to either side to keep all you to avoid walking in your fresh turned ground. I also have a tiller that fits behind a garden tractor but that is a different topic all together. cheers
it depends on how much ground you have to work. I use the 4 hour rule. If it takes you 4 hours to work up your garden or mow your yard you need a bigger machine. Some people say that number is 2. I have a collection of old garden tractors but that is a benefit of having a father who sold lawn and garden equipment. If I didnt already have a garden tractor I wouldnt buy one for a backyard sized garden. I bring in a disc and tractor to work mine up now.
Troy-built were great tillers. We would buy them from the factory in Troy, NY. They went under, and I believe they are now made by MTD (not sure). We had a 7hp Horse model (Kohler I believe) circa 1977 and replaced it around 1989. The replacement, an 8hp Kohler Horse model is still going after a only one rear transmission rebuild and several tine swap outs. The only thing to outlast the Troybuilts are the Planet Jr Cultivators (2 gasoline & 2 man-powered).
Troybilt was the original rear tine tiller company. some other companies came out with their version but few compared to the heavy steel frame and cast iron gears in the cases and transmissions. Motors take the abuse on tillers they eat a whole bunch of dirt which wrecks carburetors valves and pistons.
it is a tool used in equipment sales. lots of other factors work in also. how much trimming, obstacles that need to be turned around, ect. I have started ripping up lawn and making another flower or vegetable gardens since they frown on sheep and goats inside this small town :) I am down to less than half acre of lawn now. I put most of the 12 acres in row crop ground I rent out. Soybeans this year I think.
We've had our Troybilt for 20yrs and hubby only had one fix-it-yourself problem with it that I know of - he has only lent it out twice and it was after lending it that the problem occurred
I have an old tiller like that and it keeps throwing the belt off maybe it needs to be replaced but it's been sitting for 2 years I got the motor running and then the times work but it throw the belt off
I have the same bronco, newer briggs but everything else is the same. I have always used the counter rotating tine tillers but this one is a forward one. How in the world do you keep the thing from bucking? I can hope on it and drag race it across the yard! I have to fight it to atleast cut into the dirt. Any pointers? Also your belt came off quick and easy. I cant get mine over the gear pully, it's to tight of a fit with the frame. How should I go about changing it?
hello I bought a similar machine but within half hour the blades were not turning properly and smoke started coming out. it's a brand new machine. do I need adjust or replace the belt? would appreciate your advice. thanks

GREAT JOB THERE!
This vid just made me smile :)
Mine keeps eating belts any ideas !!
Check your pulley to see if there is any roughness on it.
Noticed you use an end wrench backwards.
Awesome music
What kind of tiller is that?
