IH model 2 Tiller
 

I had purchased a model 2 tiller. It was on an 1811. The person I had bought it from, lived 3 hours away and brought it up to his cousins for me to pick up about 30 min away. I am having trouble mounting this on my 1811 with 3pt hitch. From what I was told, it was mounted on a 3 pt hitch without the arms, just using the bracket. What I'm finding out is that I can't get the gearbox mounting frame to mount on. It has a special handle on it that has a place for a pin at the top but I can't seem to figure it out any suggestions would be very appreciated.

Can you post some pictures?

here are some pics of what I have. They are all attachments b/c I doon't know how to just put pics straight onto the thread.

You're missing a piece that bolts onto the 3-point where the drawbar normally bolts onto.

what do you mean by drawbar. My thinking of a drawbar is that part that mounts onto the 3 pt arms to allow you to bolt a sleeve hitch adapter to.

Do you have a link or picture I could see Matt G.

I would still keep the big black 3 pt plate on the tractor though right?

Matt means the piece that hooks to the back where you would hook a lawn cart to. Right now your draw bar isn't on which is good, but he's saying there should be another piece (for the tiller gbox) that connects where the draw bar would normally connect to

I don't think I have a picture...:bash2:

ok gotcha, I just thought it was called a hitch or hitch plate. Thanks.

I think I might have found a picture of what you mean Matt G. There would be a plate that bolts onto the 3 pt and the gear box would just slide on and get pinned in the top where the top link would normally go? There are to little fins at the bottom of the handle bracket on the back of the gear box and my guess is they would just ride on that plate in the grooves on the back of it? And the bottom of the gear box mounting frame would be pull against the plate by the tension of the belt?

I have no idea what that picture's from, but that's definitely not it. I'll have to look and see if I have a picture.

I was finally able to contact the previous owner and They have the bracket still mounted on their 3 pt so I guess I will be getting it this weekend or next. Thanks again Matt G. your a wealth of info.

Is this the Bracket your are looking for (190-372)..?

He needs the bottom right part, below the drive belt in the picture.

Thanks for the pics.

I have the missing bracket now. Thank you everyone for the help and information. I now have a 50" mower, dozer blade, hiller, back blade, cultivator, Brinly plow, and a IH model 2 tiller all for my 1811. I thing the only thing I'm missing is a snow blower.

I got it mounted up yesterday and used it. There wasn't anyway to mount this on there without making a slot in the mounting bracket to allow the part of the 3 pnt hitch that slides in and out of the back 3 pt. plate. There was wear there from the previous owner so we just ground full clearance for this so I didn't take a chance of busting or bending it. Also, Are you supposed to till at full throttle?

It doesn't matter whether you are mowing, throwing snow, tilling, etc...ALWAYS run at full throttle under load.

Thanks, thought so, just wanted to know.
