Introduction
i-
Welcome to “Power gardening
the TROY-BILT® Tiller way.” Your
new PTO HORSE Model Tiller is a
useful, productive gardening tool
that, with proper care, should last
for many years.
Your tiller was designed to easily
chop up, shred and bury all sorts
of vegetation and organic matter in
the garden in addition to preparing
seedbeds and cultivating. With op
tional tiller attachments it can also
be used for furrowing and hilling,
as well as light earthmoving and
snow removal chores.
The PTO HORSE Model’s design,
with powered wheels ahead of the
separately geared Bolo Tines in
the rear, gives it an outstanding
combination of tilling and com
posting capabilities that allows you
to enrich your soil far beyond your
abilities to do so by hand. This soil
enhancement is gained by tilling in
and burying organic materials such
as leaves, mulches, crop residues,
sod, green manure cover crops
and even standing cornstalks! By
using this method, you will soon
experience better yields in your
garden than ever before. This is
said to be the greatest single
benefit of power gardening “the
different, better, and so much more
enjoyable TROY-BILT® Tiller way.”
We have tried our best to build
your tiller as strong and trouble-
free as we know how. This, of
course, is to our mutual benefit. We
have fewer service problems and
you have a truly reliable machine.
