No roto tiller users here?
 
It's been a while since I checked in. No cub tiller users here? I had to change the drive belt on my rt-45 today, and could have used some help!

Don't know an RT-45 either but I did use my 42" Hydraulic Tiller Attachment Model 190-004 with my 3240 CC to till a co-workers garden this afternoon...Does that count ??

For those still stuck circa '97, an RT-45 is a Cub Cadet walk behind rototiller. Pretty nice machine actually

Post some pics of the machine and your comments how you like it.

I did a small neighbour garden today with the 400 tiller, she is a beast!

What did you search by? My G search took me to a different manual, not nearly as informative. The tiller has performed OK, although I feel the belt wore prematurely (10 hrs at most!). Also poor engineering on the belt replacement! It literally takes 4 hands to reinstall the belt. There is perhaps a 1/16" clearance between the pulley and the frame.

Guess I should have gone more generic. I entered the part number which has since been changed

I have an old wizard roto tiller I use. No cub tiller.

I use my #1 with both extensions every year. Tractor mounted, none of that walk behind crap for this guy!:biggrin2:

Better stuck in 97 than stuck behind some tiller with no seat:biggrin2:

Cub Tiller Model 190-004

Here is my Cub Cadet Tiller model 190-004 & manual. Boy does it beat the daylights out of my old Troy-Bilt walk behind. This thing is a chewing machine on my garden.... well rock garden is more like it...:biggrin2: What used to take 4-6 hours to till, now takes barely an hour. Anyone else use one of these?

Y'all crack me up! Every tiller has its place. My garden is 16'x24'. Hardly worthy of a PTO powered tow behind tiller, yet too much for a 'Mantis' type. The RT-45 is perfect for me.

My garden is also about 16' x 24', and I use this.

Attachment 74238

I also have an old troybilt horse, but where is the fun in that? HaHa :beerchug:
