Introduction
Table of Contents
Introduction
Land Pride welcomes you to the growing family of new product owners.
This Rotary Tiller has been designed with care and built by skilled workers using quality materials. Proper assembly, maintenance, and safe operating practices will help you get years of satisfactory use from the machine.
Application
The RTR10 and RTR15 Series Reverse-Till Rotary
Tillers are designed and built by Land Pride to till soil for seedbed and planting preparation. They are adapted for
540rpm PTO, three-point hitch Category 1 mounting and are Quick-Hitch adaptable. The RTR10 has a 17-25 horsepower tractor requirement and the RTR15 has a
17-50 horsepower requirement.
Reverse rotation tillers tend to achieve greater depth penetration resulting in moving and pulverizing more soil.
Also, they bury more of the residue in the soil. These
Land Pride tillers have uses and applications in landscaping, nurseries, gardens, and light commercial use.
See “Specifications & Capacities” on page 28 and
“Features & Benefits” on page 30 for additional information.

Driveline Installation
Refer to Figure 1-6, Figure 1-7 and Figure 1-8:
The tiller driveline is coupled to the tractor and implement shafts with either push pin couplers, pull collar couplers, or a combination of both and with either a shear bolt or slip clutch on one end for protection from shock loads.
Always engage the PTO at low engine rpm to minimize start-up torque on the driveline. Drivelines with friction clutches must go through a “run-in” operation prior
to initial use and after long periods of inactivity. See
“Section 4: Maintenance & Lubrication” on page 23 for a detailed description of maintaining the driveline.
If the Rotary Tiller is to be used on more than one tractor, an additional driveline may be required - especially if a quick hitch is used.
!
DANGER
Do not engage tractor PTO while hooking-up and unhooking driveline or while someone is standing near the driveline. A person’s body and/or clothing can become entangled in the driveline resulting in serious injury or death.
!
WARNING
Do not use a PTO adaptor with a quick hitch. A PTO adapter will increase strain on the tractor’s PTO shaft resulting in possible damage to shaft and driveline.
!
DANGER
All guards and shields must be installed and in good working condition at all times during tiller operation!
!
WARNING
Always disengage PTO, engage parking brake, shut tractor engine off, remove switch key, and wait for tines to come to a complete stop before dismounting from tractor.
!
WARNING
Do not over speed PTO or machine breakage may result. Some tractors are equipped with multispeed PTO ranges. Be certain your tractor’s PTO is set for 540 rpm.
IMPORTANT: The driveline must be lubricated before putting it into service. Refer to “Lubrication” on page 26 for detailed instructions.
IMPORTANT: Drivelines with friction clutches must go through a “run-in” operation prior to initial use and after long periods of inactivity.See “Driveline
Protection” on page 23 for detailed instructions.
IMPORTANT: If tiller is to be used on more than one tractor, an additional driveline may be required especially if a quick hitch is used.

General Operating Instructions
Before using your Land Pride RTR10 or RTR15 Series
Rotary Tiller, you should have completely read the
Operator’s Manual, properly attached the tiller to the tractor, cut the driveline to proper length, run-in the clutch, and gone through the Operating Checklist. If you have missed any of these steps, please complete them before proceeding.
Now that you have properly prepared yourself and your tiller, it’s time to do some tilling. Carefully drive the tractor to the site where you intend to till. You should have already cleaned this site of any large limbs, rocks,
trash, metal, or other debris. Best results will be achieved if you have mounted your tiller offset to the right far enough to cover the tread of your right tractor wheel.
Line the tractor up just to the right of center on your tillage plot. You will be working from the center out and always turning to the right to line up for your next pass.
Lower the tiller half way to the ground and reduce your tractor engine speed to about one quarter throttle.
Engage the PTO and gradually increase the engine speed until you reach full PTO speed of 540 rpm. Lower the tiller to the ground and simultaneously commence forward travel of approximately 2 mph. Do not make turns or attempt to back up while tiller is in the ground. See important note below.
IMPORTANT: Turning or backing up with rotary tines in the ground will damage the tiller.
Travel about 50 ft. and then stop to check your results.
When stopping, remember to lift the tiller out of the ground, stop the tractor, reduce engine speed, disengage the PTO, set the park brake, shut off the tractor, and remove the keys. If you are tilling too shallow or too deep, adjust the skid shoes accordingly. If the soil texture is too coarse, lower the rear deflector and reduce your ground speed. If the soil texture is too fine, you will need to raise your rear deflector and increase your ground speed. For any other problem conditions that may arise, you will want to refer to the Troubleshooting section on page 32.
When you are done tilling for the day, make sure you use proper tractor shut down procedures before you get off of the tractor. If you are detaching your tiller, make sure you park it on a dry and level surface leaving it clean and ready for the next use. When you put your tiller up for the season, make sure you refer to the Storage Directions on page 26.
With a little practice and a few adjustments, you will soon be achieving the results you want with your Land Pride
Rotary Tiller. See “Features and Benefits” Section 6 or “Specifications and Capacities” Section 5 for additional information and performance enhancing options.

Driveline Protection
Tiller drive components are protected from shock loads with either a two plate friction clutch or a shear bolt.
Shear bolt protection is discussed on page 25.
Friction clutches should be “run-in” prior to initial operation and after long periods of inactivity to remove any oxidation that may have accumulated on the friction surfaces. Repeat “run-in” instructions at the beginning of each season and when moisture and/or condensation seizes the inner friction plates.
Refer to Figure 4-2 below and Figure 4-3 on page 25 to determine which friction clutch your tiller has. Follow run-In, disassembly, and assembly instructions for your specific clutch.
Clutches With 4 Adjusting Nuts
Clutch Run-In
Refer to Figure 4-2 (View - A):
1.
Using a pencil or other marker, scribe a line across the exposed edges of the clutch plates and friction disks.
2.
Tighten all 4 nuts uniformly until spring load is low enough that the clutch slips freely with PTO engaged.

Shearbolt Protection
Avoid shear bolt breakage by making sure the tiller is out of the ground before engaging PTO and by engaging
PTO slowly at low engine rpm. Increase engine speed to
540 RPM only after tines are rotating.
IMPORTANT: Replace shear bolts with original
Land Pride equipment from your Land Pride Dealer.
See table below for correct shear bolt and nut part numbers. Torque shear bolt nuts to 7-9 ft- lbs.

Storage
Clean, inspect, service, and make necessary repairs to the Rotary Tiller when parking it for long periods and when parking it at the end of a working season. This will help ensure that the tiller is ready for field use the next time you hook-up to it.
!
DANGER
Always disconnect main driveline from tractor PTO and secure tiller in the up position with solid supports before servicing underside of tiller. PTO can be engaged if tractor is started resulting in damage to tiller, bodily injury, or death.
1.
Clean off any dirt and grease that may have accumulated on the Rotary Tiller. Scrape off compacted dirt and then wash surfaces thoroughly with a garden hose.
2.
Check the tines for wear and replace if necessary.
See Tine Replacement earlier in this section.
3.
Inspect the tiller for loose, damaged, or worn parts and adjust or replace if needed.
4.
Repaint parts where paint is worn or scratched to prevent rust. Ask your dealer for Land Pride Aerosol touch-up paint. They are also available in touch-up bottles with brush, quarts, and gallon sizes by adding
TU, QT, or GL to the end of the Aerosol part number.
A coating of oil may be applied to worn surfaces in lieu of painting to minimize oxidation.
