"Light cultivation" was a slip on my part. "Light work such as cultivation" would be better. My cousin built me a pair of hilling disks for potatoes. The G has to work some if the ground has not been loosened enough in my heavy clay. Also, it gets tired dragging a 4-foot spike-tooth harrow in second up any slope.

It took me a while to find "Special Low" gear--their term, not mine--even after I saw it in the manual. It is just to the right of 1st (almost hitting the battery box with the shift lever). First gear is listed as 2.25 mph.

Can you describe the lilliston rolling cultivator? Thanks.


Vern
