Which part of drawbar do I use ?

Posted by Sean in Calgary on May 21, 2003 at 08:51:00 from (216.94.7.66):

I am going to be using my 350U this weekend to get the garden (about an acre) ready for planting. This will involve two steps. First step will be to break the ground (very hard clay) with a 12ft cultivator and then I will work it with a drag-behind roto-tiller that I have finally gotten working. My question is, which drawbar should these be hooked up to, the U-shaped part or the swinging drawbar with roller? If the swinging one, do I want to let it swing totally freely from side to side? This question probably makes it pretty clear that I am a novice at this, so any other suggestions will be greatly appreciated too. Before I got too many warnings about the same thing, I am 100% respectful of the danger of the PTO shaft for the roto-tiller so I have the shield in place at the PTO connection and I will only dismount the tractor once the PTO has come to a complete stop.

Thanks in advance,
Sean
