Hello, I am a newb to "real" tractors and am looking for a tiller for my just aquired YM155D (1300D equivalent) with loader - tractor rated at 15hp and weighs about 1150 lbs. I was ready to pull the trigger on a King Kutter 48" (TG-48) Professional but was advised to pick something smaller (36" - 41") by the dealer. I will be using it initially to start a large garden in hard soil (clayey silt with some small rocks <2") but thereafter I will till the soil yearly and will be adding compost. So it will not be used frequently to break a lot of new ground.
Is the 48" "really" too much tiller for this tractor or do you just need to take it slow. I really did not want any smaller than a 48" tiller, but don't want to give the machine more than it can handle and be kicking myself later. Thoughts/brand recommendations?
Thanks! - Greg
