Solze1267 202 #1 Posted July 10, 2021 So I just purchased a tiller for my 1267 but the guy wasn’t able to show me how exactly it hooks up. I do know it uses the brackets for the snow plow which I already have on the tractor but I guess I don’t know from there. Do I leave my sleeve hitch on or take it off? Where does it attach to be able to lift? Pictures would help tremendously as I’m a visual learner. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
daveoman1966 3,745 #2 Posted July 10, 2021 You also need the Idler Pulley Assembly...looks like this, but there are variants. You need a CABLE lift that laces thru the CONDUIT TUBE under your seat.. ((I can provide the parts in the pic named 'Cable Conduit (3,& 1)..for $45...shipped)).. The pic shows where the LIFT CABLE extends thru the TUBE at the back of your tractor (This pics is a C-160, so the tiller bracket is different.) That cable hooks to a BAR link on the tiller and is raised/lowered by your implement LIFT LEVER. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Goldnboy 910 #4 Posted July 10, 2021 Getting the tiller to line up just right with the idler pulley on tiller can be a challenge too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Get one of those small 4 caster wood dolly's they sell a harbor freight for 10 bucks and put you tiller on it. It about the right height to roll you tiller up to the rear of the tractor and adjust it to fit you bracket. You can do it just laying on the floor with one hand. It also makes moving and storing the tiller much easier. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Solze1267 202 #8 Posted July 11, 2021 Well with a few colorful words and some head scratching later I was able to get the tiller hooked up..not 100% but it does lift and function. Still needs the assist spring and a bracket made for the tensioner pulley. I knows it's not the correct tiller for the year tractor but damn does do a fine job Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
