MACHINE COMPONENTS

The Buhler Farm King 45 Series Rotary Tiller consists of a rotating drum that is equipped with bent blades for breaking up and leveling soil. The blades are turned through the soil while the machine moves over the working area. A Drag Shield is used to maintain a level seedbed. Rotational power to the drum is provided by the PTO on the tractor. The power is transmitted through the gearbox in the center of the machine to the chain drive down the side. The A-frame can be moved to offset the machine.
