Is what’s in the pic what I need
ok for me to learn and understand.... why dont u need the sleeve hitch ??? its what lifts it up ..... if there isnt one.. how does one lift up the tiller ???You do not need the sleeve hitch!
You already have what you need, the 3 point lift
But, you do need the front part of the mule drive and a the long belt.
Down load the manuals as suggested and all the info you need is in there.
Make sure the flat on the adjustment handle is parallel with the fender pan edge and not pointed towards it
AND DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES GET FINGERS OR YOUR HAND BACK THERE WHEN RAISING THE TILLER!!!!
And PUT THE BELT GUARD ON!!
You do have that don't you??
Good Luck!
Ken, he needs the rear lift, not the sleeve hitch. This is a common point of confusion. The sleeve hitch is more correctly called a sleeve hitch adapter, or Brinly sleeve hitch adapter. Here's what that looks like and is not needed for the tiller. (I should also mention that there are different variations of sleeve hitch adapter...)

just a 1/8 inch coupling and a grease fitting... weld coupling to case. then drill as big as pipe fitting.. pour some oil in and them grease fitting.. pump it with grease... 10 or so pumps.. while its spinning..Ken what is that on top of the pipe you welded in ? I mean it’s obvious there’s a grease fitting. I would like to do the same thing you did. I’m assuming it’s factory sealed. And mine may be dryed out.
your welcome.. its simple to do ... iam sure if you dont have welder.. local shop will take it up for u.. it does have to be welded to seal as your pumping grease thru the couplingThank uuuu
