I love it just got the same set up from my neighbor!! I've been hearing the 450 tiller is rare.

I was lucky enough to have gotten a deal where a lot of attachments came with it.

Great looking set up. You should take your rear wheels off the GT and switch sides for better traction. Kent from PEI

Tires need be changed onth eff back of the 445 . Just change SIDES with them and they be okay .

4 years ago I bought a 430 Diesel with this intent. I spent a year and $4k restoring the tractor and replacing the PTO that had been scavenged. When it was done a year later it was like new, but during that year every tiller I found was rusty junk and I never knew of this 450. I had a female PTO I don't know if that would have made a difference. I also looked for a FEL and same luck. I bought plans to build one, but the more I thought about it I decided I was done. I pushed snow with it that year and sold it for $6k. I looked at a New 1025 and almost pulled the trigger, but with the Right To Repair crap Deere pulled and lost made me think less of them. The tractor seemed pricey too given my old/new 430 had the same size rear tires and a Yanmar 20 hp engine. After much research I bought a TYM T 25 with a Kukje engine fully mechanical, (Cummins) 4x4, a FEL and I purchased a Woods 60" tiller. It has been two years and I couldn't be happier with my decision and an extra $4k in the bank not buying the 1025. Never knew I needed pallet forks either, but I pick up so many things now I never would have thought. The old 430 was fun and would have been cool, but I think things happen for a reason.

@@kingtut5923 those Ag tires on the rear need swapped so the tread bars are pointing forward not reverse.

What’s up with chain slapping the cultivator??

@Dougie0049 3 жыл бұрын

I don’t know how that goes

@@Dougie0049 That chain is going to take someone's arm off like at the start of the video. At 1:20 what you are doing is EXTREMELY dangerous. DO NOT HAVE YOUR HANDS THERE WITH THE TRACTOR RUNNING. Especially if you have a flying chain. The PTO safety shaft (black plastic) should typically have a small chain at one end that you attach typically to the PTO guard (the square metal box that the pto output shaft is within on a tractor or another fixed solid point on either end). The chain gets attached to this then you spin the plastic shield (TRACTOR OFF) so the chain is wrapped tight if any excess. The metal inner or actual PTO shaft rotates within the plastic shaft so there is no rotating piece on the outside to prevent injury. So remedy that chain and make it so that it can be attached directly to the tractor or implement where the remainder of the chain will not have a chance of being near the PTO knuckles on either end. MAKES SURE YOU GREASE THE SHAFT GREASE NIPPLES. Your upper link bar has that small metal rod that is used to help rotate the link bar as well, not catch the chain as it was doing incase anyone assumes that is it's purpose. Awesome tiller - looks like it does a fantastic job!
