General Product Question posted March 21, 2018 by William MillerQuestion:I have a new DRT 900H tiller. The manual says to reset the wheel clevis pin and move the wheels further apart for tilling or cultivating. Is this right do the wheels need to be close together for transport and moved apart to cultivate or till??Details:ADJUST WHEELS FOR CULTIVATING (See Figs. 17 and 18) • Place blocks under right hand side of tiller and remove hairpin clip and clevis pin from right hand wheel. • Move wheel outward approximately 1 inch until hole in inner wheel hub lines up with inner hole in axle. • Replace clevis pin and hairpin clip on inside of wheel and remove blocks. • Repeat preceding steps on left hand side. NOTE: In extremely rough conditions and while cultivating, the wheels should be moved outward on the axle for increased stability.

- General Product Question posted January 8, 2018 by Richard SomazzeQuestion:Two questions:
1. What is the difference between the DRT900 and TR 317D Tiller as shown on Lowes website? Both have same retail price point.
2. Is there any difference between the DRT900 and DRT900E other than the electric start?
Thanks - Richard - General Product Question posted April 16, 2016 by Angela SlaughterQuestion:I brought my brand new FT900 home today. I spent considerable time reading the manual, got it started and used it for about two hours, then it cut off. There was still fuel in it, so the obvious is not the problem. Now, I can't get it started. PLEASE DON'T POST THE CANNED ANSWER ABOUT IT SITTING THERE A LONG TIME. THIS IS A NEW UNIT. I feel like just taking it back and getting something else. I need someone to help me troubleshoot this ...
- General Product Question posted February 14, 2016 by Jerry SchumramQuestion:I am considering either a CRT900 or DRT900 rototiller. I'm aware of most differences between the two, although I notice that the CRT appears to use bolo tines while the DRT900 employs mainly "spade" tines. How does the performance of these tine types differ?
- General Product Question posted March 28, 2015 by Dennis BakerQuestion:I have the CRT900 rear tine tiller. I have now used it two times tilling up garden spots. What I keep noticing is that the machine seems to grade up dirt, grass, leaves underneath the engine/framework area ahead of the tines until it high-centers. I have to put it in reverse and try moving forward again. Am I incorrectly operating the machine or is there something else I should be doing? Doesn't seem like a problem this machine should keep having. Operator error??
Thanks for any and all advice. - General Product Question posted June 3, 2014 by Keith EnnisDetails:
I have a FT 900 Tiller I purchased just over 1 year ago with less than 2 hours runt time. Both flanges that hold each of the wheels are now all bent and contorted from the weight of the tiller. The steel is so soft these are easily bent by hand. I need these replaced with steel that will not bend under the weight of the tiller.
Are there replacements parts for these poorly tempered steel flanges? I have included an image of the bent flanges

Thank you Robert Bontrager - General Product Question posted June 21, 2013 by Randall lauQuestion:the FT900 tiller_ Q: your last catalog says the tiller comes in 12", 22", 26" widths.
Do you still make a 12" width? - General Product Question posted June 19, 2013 by Matthew StrassburgQuestion:Just purchased a DTR900 CARB. Great tiller. Trying to register it online, there is no product number for this in the system. (960930018) The mail in registration card looks like a dealer needs to sign? Would be easier on line if it worked.Details:Also, used it for about 2 hours and the arm bolt that is used to lock the handle in place stripped its threads?
