Default Cub Cadet XT3 GSX with Bercomac tiller

Bought a Bercomac tiller for it 5 years ago, just before Bercomac stopped producing the tillers. But only used it sparingly, but never posted any pictures of it mounted. In the past, I know Finsruskw was a little disappointed because Cub did not produce an OEM tiller for the post-2011 2000 series. Which this tiller would also fit on. It actually performs really well in garden preparation and cultivation. The tiller has a built-in spring assist lift, and it is very easy to raise and lower. It almost feels as though the tiller isn't even there when lifting or lowering. The onboard depth gauge is really nice.

I have a Deere 30-inch mechanical belt-driven tiller for my John Deere GX335, which has a hydraulic lift. And due to the design, the Deere tiller is kind of hard to gauge the depth on compared to the Bercomac tiller. The Deere tiller seems to have only two depths. Shallow and deep.

I now have 3 belt-driven tillers: an IH Number 2, Bercomac, and the Deere 30-inch Mechanical Plus, plus a Deere 647 shaft-driven 540 RPM tiller and a shaft-driven to PTO pump-driven John Deere 42-inch hydraulic tiller.

Gone a little Tiller nuts, I guess.

Just my opinion: tillers, not so much, walls and doors, possibly.

The other side of the barn (enclosed insulated Lean-To) has a double Cub Cadet painted door, a double Wheel Horse red door, an Alis Orange former door, a Ford Blue former door, and one more yellow and green double Dutch door. But the enclosed lean-to is full of Cub Cadet machines 106, 1450, 1541, 2182, 3208, and one Wheel Horse 416-H. I don't just bleed one tractor color. In another off-site location, I have another 3 Cubs: an original, 70, and 60. A John Deere Sabre and a Simplicity Wonder Boy and my Ingersoll 3016PS and White GT2055 are down the street at my brother's house. The Main Barn during the summer has John Deere 110RF, 112SF, 140H3, GX335, X748, and a 2032R. Then my Cub Z-Force SX54 and my Cub Cadet XT3 GSX. The Z-Force SX goes in the enclosed lean-to in the winter. If I had More Room I have a Ariens GT, Gravely G and a Bolens Duratrac

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.
