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 January 10, 2013 by Belinda WrightQuestion:I have a DRT 900 tiller and want to know if it is possible to replace the spoons with tines like on the 900 model. Not satisfied with the spoon type at all.

The problem I have is that the tines are not spaced equally around the shaft and the whole machine lurches real bad when the set of three tine that are nearly in a row rotate through the soil. Are there different tines available for this unit which are equally spaced on the shaft?
TA - General Product Question posted September 22, 2011 by cloveQuestion:Does the Husqvarna CRT900 allow for a furrower attachment? If so, what the the part number. I'm looking for a rear tine tiller with a furrower/rower attachment. I can't seem to find any info about attachments for rear tine tillers. If not the Husqvarna CRT900 then any models or brands would be very helpful. Model numbers and furrower part numbers. Thanks.
- General Product Question posted April 25, 2013 by Ron HudsonQuestion:I am considering buying one of two Husqvarna tillers, the DRT900E or the DRT900H. The "E" comes with a Briggs & Stranton engine. The "H" comes with a Honda engine. I know the "E" offers more cc's (205 vs 160) and more gross torque (9lb ft vs 6.9 lb ft). I am buying one of these tomorrow.
Which is the better engine? I want a machine that will give me long lasting, trouble free use?
Also,which of these engines is made in the USA? - 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?
