Introduction

Introduction

Land Pride welcomes you to the growing family of new
product owners.

Thisimplement has been designed with care and built by
skilledworkers using quality materials. Properassembly,
maintenance, and safe operating practices will help you
get years of satisfactory use from the machine.

Application

The RTA20 & RTR20 Series Rotary Tillers are just right
for home gardening, landscape work, vegetable farming
or food plot maintenance. Available in three widths, the
20 Series Rotary Tiller turns up hard packed ground,
leaving a perfect seedbed for gardens to grass. Land
Pride’s RTA20 forward rotating tiller can work in all types
of ground conditions, with best results being obtained in
fairly mellow conditions. The RTR20 Series Rotary
Tillers feature a reverse tilling action for tougher ground
conditions. The reverse action “sucks” the tiller into the
ground, which prohibits the tiller from “walking” on hard
ground. The RTR20 Series Tiller also incorporates
spring loaded “sifting” rods behind the tines to help bury
large rocks and debris. The reverse action of the rotor
brings material up and over the top. Rocks and
vegetation cannot get through the sifting rods so they fall
first. Soil continues to get sifted before it falls, building a
layer of large to small dirt clods burying the rocks and
vegetation.Reverse tilling canreduce thenumber of trips
needed to turn the soil over. See “Features and
Benefits”, “Section 6” for additional information.

Land Pride

joint to the tractor shaft and inner dr iveline
universal joint to the tiller gearbox shaft. Pull on
each dr iveline section to be sure the universal
joints are secured to the shafts.

c. Hold the driveline sections parallel to each other

to determine if they are too long. The inner and
outer shields on each section should end
approximately 1" short of reaching the universal
joint shield on the adjacent section (see “B”
dimension). If they are too long, measure 1" (“B”
dimension) back from the universal joint shield
and make a mark at this location on the inner and
outer dr iveline shields.

d. Cut off the inner shield at the mark (“X”

dimension). Cut the same amount off the inner
shaft (“X1” dimension). Repeat cut off procedure

(“Y”&“Y1” dimensions) to the outer driveline half.

tiller tines are not lifted more than 14 inches off the
ground to prevent damage to the driveline.

2. Be sure to reduce tractor ground speed when
turning; and, leave enough clearance so the tiller
does not contact obstacles such as buildings, trees
or fences.

3. Select a safe ground travelspeed when transpor ting
from one area to another. When traveling on
roadways,transport in such a waythat faster moving
vehicles may pass you safely.

4. Whentravelingoverrough or hilly terrain,shift tractor
to a lower gear.

Parking

The following steps should be taken when preparing to
store the tiller or unhitch it from the tractor. Also see
Storage in the “Maintenance and Lubrication” section
starting on page 17 for additional information on long
term storage of your tiller.

a long period.

General Notes for Field Operations

Beforebeginning to tillthe following inspectionshould be
performed:

1. Check oil level in gearbox and chaincase. Refer to
Lubrication in the “Maintenance and Lubrication”
section starting on page 14.

2. Check that all plugs have been replaced properly in
the gearbox and chaincase.

3. Check drive chain tension. Refer to Drive Chain in
the “Adjustment” section on page 13.

4. Be sure all tiller tines, bolts and nuts are tight.

5. Be certain all guards and shields are in place and
secure.

6. Grease dr iveline shaft and all other grease fittings.

7. Clear the area to be tilled of rocks, branches and
other foreign objects.

8. Tall grass and weeds may need to be mowed before
tilling.

9. Operate with 540 rpm PTO tractor.

10. At first begin tilling at a slow forward speed and shift
up as ground conditions warrant.

11. Tiller should be operated with the tiller deck level to
the ground.

12. Tiller tines will cut better at a faster rotor speed than
at reduced throttle.

13. Do not engage PTO at full throttle.

14. Tilling should not be done in wet conditions as soil
will stick to tines.

15. Aftertilling thefirst 50feet,stop andcheckto seethat
the tiller is adjusted properly.

16. Donot make turns or attempt to backup 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.

17. Do not engage PTO with machine in the fully raised
or lowered position.

18. Periodically check for foreign objects wrapped
around the rotor shaft and remove them after
disengaging PTO, turning off tractor, and removing
ignition key.

Operating Check List

In addition to design and configuration of equipment,
hazard control and accident prevention are dependent
upon the awareness, concern, prudence and proper
training involved in its operation, transport, maintenance
and storage of equipment. Before beginning to operate
your Rotary Tiller, the following inspection should be
performed.

Operating Instructions

Before using your Land Pride RTA20 Series Rotary
Tiller, you should have completely read the Operator’s
Manual,properly attached the Tiller tothe tractor, cut the
Drive-line to proper length, Run-in the clutch, and gone
through the Operating Checklist. If you have missed any
ofthese steps, please complete them before proceeding.

Now that you have properly prepared yourself and your
tiller,it’s timeto do sometilling. 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 extraneous debris. Best results will be achieved
ifyou have mounted yourtiller offsetto theleft farenough
to cover the tread of your left 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
turningto theleft to lineup foryour next pass. Lowerthe
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.

Land Pride

IMPORTANT: Turning or backing up with rotary

tines in the ground will damage the tiller.

Travel about 50ft. 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 tillingtoo shallow
or too deep, adjust the skid shoes accordingly. If the soil
texture is too coarse, lower the leveling door and reduce
your ground speed. If the soil texture is too fine, you will
need to raise your leveling door and increase your
ground speed. For any other problem conditions that
may arise, you will want to refer to the Troubleshooting
section of this Operator’s Manual.

Whenyou are done tilling for the day, make sure you use
propertractor shutdown procedures beforeyou getoff of
thetractor. If youare detaching yourtiller, make sureyou
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 in
this Operator’s Manual.

Witha little practice anda few adjustments, you will soon
be achieving the results you want with your Land Pride
Rotary Tiller. See “Features and Benefits” page 21 or
“Specifications and Capacities” page 20 foradditional
information and performance enhancing options.

Maintenance

!

CAUTION

For safety reasons, each maintenance operation must be
performed with the tractor’s PTO disengaged, the Tiller
lowered completely to the ground or on safely supported
blocking, tractor engine shut off and ignition key removed.

Proper servicing and adjustment can increase the life of
any implement. With careful and systematic inspection,
you can avoid costly maintenance, time and repair.

After using your tiller for several hours, check all bolts to
be sure they are tight.

Replace any worn, damaged or illegible safety labels by
obtaining new labels form your Land Pride Dealer.

Driveline Protection

Driveline components are protected from shock loads by
a friction slip clutch. The clutch must be capable of
slippage during operation to protect the gearbox,
driveline and other drive train parts.

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 16 to
determine which friction clutch your Rotary 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.
