Thanks for another great video. It was interesting and enjoyable. Good job of tilling the ground. Made the ground nice and smooth and ground up in good shape. Did not take long to do that. Nice tiller. Thanks for sharing with us Hank. Good work. Take care. The Iowa farm boy. Steve.
I only used my tiller one time since I bought it, I noticed it would jump a lot and did not till like I expected. After I looked at it closer, the tines were on the tiller backwards when I bought it. I flipped them around and going to test it out this weekend. I believe I'm going to run it in auto mode on my 494 like you do. FYI, your channel is the reason I bought a TYM.
I tilled my neighbors garden 50x150... he said "I'm gonna do it with my walk behind". And I was like "dude, I'll come do it. That's too much for that small tiller" took me 20 mins. Would've took him 2 days
@@hhamilton1970 Our garden is probably about 20x30. It takes me around an hour to do it if all goes well (which almost never happens). At my age and health, I have to take breaks while I'm doing it. Good on you to help your neighbors out. I do the same when I can. Country living just can't be matched by city living.
Hank, First of all let me say thank you for showing those of us without ownership or experience with tractors or attachments like these how you use your tools. Your simple explanations and common-sense answers are truly helpful. In that vein, I was hoping you could answer a question that I have often wondered - Many people advocate that starting the PTO at just enough RPM to not stall the tractor is beneficial for the life of the drivetrain and tool. Once started, then the RPM’s are raised to run the implement. When you raise and lower the implement on auto mode, it seems that the tractor is still at full PTO power. Am I missing something? Does that rule only apply when the machine and tool are “Cold” (not been working)?
Yeah that's a great question. I do start my implements on lower RPM's then raise the engine speed once the "violent shake" of the implement is done. Crazy, I've never thought about your question as far as the implement doing that once the lift arms are lowered. Interesting. I don't really have an answer for you. But gonna research it and see if I can find someone who can give me a good explanation for it.
Will my answer to that question is I really don't think it matters what RPM you start the PTO at I drove the tractors all my life growing up as a farm kid and we never had no trouble with no PTO or is the life of the tractor or none of that I don't know where that come from
I go by the equipment being ran like a bush hog the blades are usually turned when you start which really can shake everything until they swing back in line so I always start them at low rpm just to help with the shaking but a tiller the times are tight to shaft so it’s pretty balanced so higher rpm wouldn’t matter the shaking begins for me using a tiller is when it engages the ground our ground is rocky makes for a noisy and shaking job lol😂
I have the little cousin to the T574... The 4820H, which I use to till a couple acres on my property. Question... With 300+ hours, how many regens in that Kukje diesel? Love the channel. Thanks for the content
Was asking on Facebook the other day if anyone used auto PTO. It’s hard to tell from the video, does it cut in hard or does it do a soft start? Would you use it for a rotary cutter/brush Hog? Thanks for the video, enjoyed it 👍🏼
I probably wouldn't use it for a brush hog, as I always cut when I'm turning, but that's my personal opinion. When I drop the tiller back down, it isn't horrible. But I wouldn't consider it a soft start.
I thought you were going to talk about the tiller! Like how deep in the ground you were going. I run my old Gravely tiller to 8" in our small garden. A tiller on my 574 would by way overkill. Even with the gravely I find that I have to go in both directions otherwise I end up with a duvet or low spot at the starting end.
Thanks for another great video.

Right on. Make sure you didn't buy a reverse rotation tiller if that's what you didn't mean to buy. Good luck!
I'm glad you can translate for all of us North Carolina folk. LOL
lol. That's right!
flower power! I like it,
💐🌻🌼
Yes sir, get those flowers blooming
That's right!
Nice tiller! Much easier than my walk-behind that I use for our garden which is about as large as the area of about 3 passes that you were doing.

I've had zero regens. I'll probably freak out when I get the first one. Lol. 373 hours on it now

Garden hoses here in London Essex ❤❤❤
Love your videos
Thank you
More flowers on the way!
Yeppers!
I'm ok with hose pipe, however, if you are one of those people that calls a shopping cart a "buggy" we're going to have problems ...
lol... guilty
Don't rub any of that dirt off! You know that's when something breaks.
lol
Sweet!
Thanks
Looks like a good 'tine' 🤦 😁
🙄😂
Hank That doesn't look like dirt Look like your trying to till Concrete.
lol. Joys of having crappy soil.
How come you never do video on flowers if you have a flower farm

Cool!!
