Good tillers come with a slip clutch on the driveshaft and you shouldn't use a tiller without one. You need to seperate it every spring in case it has rusted together. You don't need a reverse rotation tiller for most jobs. They're supposed to be for harder ground and bury stones and larger lumps. One important thing with a tiller is to never start it up or shut it off when it's in the ground. That can break the PTO shaft but otherwise they aren't any harder on the PTO than anything else if used properly. Engage the PTO at idle with the tiller lifted and shut the PTO off after lifting the tiller out of the ground. A 255 should run a tiller no problem in all but the hardest ground. A 6 ft. would be a good size for general tilling. Sicma are a good tiller for the money but I'm not sure all the places to buy them. They are made in Italy like a lot of tillers. They make some of the JD tillers too. Dave

Although he himself has never actually owned or restored a tractor, he was always enthusiastic and always around helping with other peoples projects.
