Dale 0 #1 Posted December 12, 2009 i have a raider 12 i want to use a moldboard plow a tiller and some other attachments are these hard to lift with a manual lift if so how can i make it easier to lift?has anyone tried to made a helper spring? are the electic lifts built to last and where would i find one and how much do they cost? i would think a moldboard plow or tiller would get heavy having to lift it at the end of each row. thanks dale Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kelly 1,029 #2 Posted December 12, 2009 they made a spring assist for the tilers and sowblowers, I've seen the electric lifts bring pretty good money before, my moldboard plow is easy to lift, the tiller gets heavy, after while, I need to get a spring for it.

jtmoyer 1 #4 Posted December 12, 2009 if you can get an electric lift it is the way to go. i like the electric better then my hydro lifts. i have not noticed much help out of helper springs, i put one on with the tiller and lift seams to work just as hard as with out it.

boatman 3 #5 Posted February 15, 2010 B) I just bought an electric lift actuator for wheelhorse on ebay to put on my c-125 8 speed. had to give 241.00 dollars for it. WHEW I hope it is worth it. I use this tractor mostly in garden with moldboard plow and a tiller. Both are heavy and hard to lift. hope this takes some of the work out of it. I also found out it takes a completly different rock shaft and a special bracket to mount to frame and a different side panel that is thicker because of thicker part than a cylnder. How does everything that seems so simple get to be complicated? Oh well just another challenge. Once I get parts rounded up and installed I will do a post on how well it works Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

boatman 3 #7 Posted February 15, 2010 B) jtmoyer/ did you add the electric lift or was it already on your tractor? I just bought a wheelhorse electric actuator and would like to install on my c-125 8. if installed yourself could use any tips you might have. thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
