Default 400 Tiller

Hi guys,
A few weeks ago I went to purchase a rear tine tiller from a farmer. He is an IH guy so we ended up talking cub cadets, one thing leads to another and he shows me this tiller in one of his buildings, says he has no use for it, asks if I'm interested....of course I am. I haven't tried to start it yet, I was told it had been sitting for over 9 yrs. The motor is free, and if you engage the clutch, you can spin the tines with the pull start so I'm hoping its fresh oil and carb cleaning to get it going. The issue I have to solve is that this is set up for a tractor with cat 0 hitch. I plan to put this on my 1450 which as of now does not have a rear lift. I have found drawings on here so I can build my own cc lift, but I would still need to fab the hitch to go from tiller to lift. The owners manual has some good pictures of it, but no dimensions. Do any of you guys have one and some time to get me some measurements? Is there an easy way to build a cat 0? I've seen the extrememw cat 0 lift, looks nice but I'm not willing to spend more on a hitch than I did on the tiller.
Thanks for your input

Bill

If I remember correctly, that tiller doesnt lift off the ground with the 3 pt...It rides on that rear wheel as the lift arms bring the tines off the ground...If that is the case I am sure you could fab a bracket and use a sleeve hitch lift...Save you alot of $$$

I agree with leadslingingdaddy, that said the Xtreme stuff is well worth the $$$. I'd put an Xtreme 3 point on the tractor along with that tiller and be a happy camper.

I believe your right about riding the rear wheel, I couldn't visualize based on the linkage geometry that it would lift totally off the ground. Here is the adapter that I am missing for a cc rear lift. Looks easy enough to make, was just hoping someone could save me time with a few key dimensions.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
