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. If customer service or repair parts are required contact a Land Pride dealer. A dealer has trained personnel, repair parts, and equipment needed to service the implement. The parts on your Rotary Tiller have been specially designed and should only be replaced with genuine Land Pride parts. Therefore, should your Rotary Tiller require replacement parts go to your Land Pride Dealer.

Before beginning to till the following inspection should be performed: IMPORTANT: It is important to adjust the skid shoes down as shown in Figure 2-1 to stabilize the tiller when parked. Always follow “Skid Shoe Adjustment” steps on page 22 when repositioning the skid shoes. Refer to Figure 2-1: 1. Reposition the left hand skid shoe (#3) by: a. Loosening bolt (#1) and removing bolt (#2). b. Pivot skid shoe down and replace bolt (#2) in the second hole from the top as shown. c. Tighten bolts (#1 & #2) to the correct torque. 2. Repeat step #1 for the right hand skid shoe. 22306 Figure 2-1 3. See Figure 1-1 on page 10. Remove parking stand from the holder, turn it up right, and replace it through the bottom of the holder. 4. Set parking stand to desired height to maintain tiller height for re-hook-up and install pin to lock in place. 5. Park tiller on a level, solid area. 6. Shut tractor engine off and engage parking brake. 7. Unhitch from tractor. ! 1. Check oil level in gearbox and chaincase. Refer to “Lubrication” on page 26. 2. Check that all plugs have been replaced properly in the gearbox and chaincase. 3. Be sure all tiller tines, bolts, and nuts are tight. 4. Be certain all guards, shields, and dirt deflectors are in place and secure. 5. Grease driveline shaft and all other grease fittings. Refer to “Lubrication” on page 26. 6. Clear area to be tilled of rocks, branches, and other foreign objects. 7. Tall grass and weeds should be mowed before tilling. 8. Do not engage PTO at full throttle. Once engaged, increase throttle to 540 PTO speed. Tiller tines will cut better at 540 PTO speed than at reduced throttle. 9. Tilling should not be done in wet conditions as soil will stick to tines. 10. At first begin tilling at a slow forward speed and shift up as ground conditions warrant. 11. Operated tiller with deck level to the ground. 12. Tiller should be operated with the tiller deck level to the ground. 13. Tiller tines will cut better when operating the tractor at full 540 rpm PTO speed than at reduced throttle. 14. After tilling the first 50 feet, stop and check to see that the tiller is adjusted properly. 15. 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. 16. Do not engage PTO with machine in the fully raised or lowered position. 17. Periodically check for foreign objects wrapped around the rotor shaft and remove them after disengaging PTO, turning off tractor engine, and removing ignition key. WARNING Place support blocks under tiller as needed to prevent unit from tipping over onto a child and/or an adult. A tiller that tips over can result in injury or death. 8. Check tiller for stability by physically applying pressure at the hitch plates to see if it will tip forward or backwards. If the tiller moves in either direction, then block under the tiller as needed to prevent that movement. 9. See “Storage” on page 26 for additional information on long term storage of your tiller. 18 RTR10 & RTR15 Series Rotary Tillers 311-431M 7/25/13 Land Pride Table of Contents Section 2: Operating 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. 7/25/13 RTR10 & RTR15 Series Rotary Tillers 311-431M 19 Table of Contents Section 3: Adjustments Section 3: Adjustments RTR10 Tiller Hitch Offset RTR15 Tiller Hitch Sideshift Refer to Figure 3-1: By shifting the lower hitch clevises (#1) to the side, a limited amount of offset can be obtained.

With careful inspection and routine maintenance, you can avoid costly down time and repair. 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. The parts on your Rotary Tiller have been specially designed and should only be replaced with genuine Land Pride parts. Do not alter the tiller in a way which will adversely affects its performance. 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. Check all bolts and pins after using the unit for several hours and on a regular basis thereafter to insure they are tight and secured. Replace worn, damaged, or illegible safety labels by obtaining new labels from your Land Pride Dealer. ! Clutches With 4 Adjusting Nuts CAUTION For safety reasons, each maintenance operation must be performed with tractor PTO disengaged, tiller lowered completely to the ground or onto support blocks, tractor engine shut off, and ignition key removed. Tine Replacement Refer to Figure 4-1: ! 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. 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. WARNING 23696 Worn tines may be very sharp! IMPORTANT: When ordering, be sure to order genuine Land Pride replacement tines only and to order both right and left-hand tines. Always install tines with cutting edge facing direction of rotation. IMPORTANT: Remove and install one tine at a time to ensure they are oriented correctly when installed. 1. Remove 2 hex head cap screws and fasteners from each tine being replaced. Remove tine. 2. Attach each new tine to the flange making certain it is mounted so that the cutting edge crosses over the flange and leads in rotation as shown in Figure 4-1. 3. Replace 2 cap screws and fasteners.

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.

Replace all damaged or missing decals. 6. Lubricate as noted below. 7. Drain and refill gearbox and chaincase oil. Be sure to replace all oil plugs. • Drain oil in gearbox by removing the bottom drain plug or right hand cap. • Drain oil in chaincase by removing the bottom plug and tipping tiller backwards. 8. Store tiller on a level surface in a clean, dry place. Inside storage will reduce maintenance and make for a longer tiller life. 9. Follow all parking instructions on page 18 when disconnecting tractor from tiller.
