A spring assist makes it easier to lift the tiller. I have a hydraulic lift for my latest 125 and "fingertip" control is nice

Lift pin ships tomorrow

Thanks guys. Looking forward to getting this set up for some serious garden tilling, if we ever get spring? Current temps are about 20 degrees with a layer of fresh cold snow.
Anyone out there using a tiller with a electric lift? Was wondering if it handles the weight of the tiller OK? I have a 127 with electric lift but doesn't have the three point (sleeve hitch) on it.
Regards,
Chris

DRGlinski,
"IH made a specific lift pin for the tiller and mount. I hope you got that with the tiller box. Check out the manual, and let me know if you have any more questions."
Thanks for the info on the spring assist. May have to look into that option too.
Hope I have the right pin coming from Jeff I Did not know there was a different pin. Will go looking for info.
Regards,
Chris

Got a pic?

Also, I'd still have a spring assist even with an e lift IMO.

Dan,
Thanks for the info. Yea sounds like the spring assist would be a good option on one of these heavy tillers.
Regards,
Chris

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
