Options And Attachments; Wheel And Tire Assemblies; 8 Standard Tires And Wheels; 8 Bar Tread Tires And Wheels - Troy-Bilt Horse Owner's Manual

Your Horse Model Troy-Bilt Tiller comes
equipped with 4:80 x 8 tubeless tire mounted
on a single piece steel wheel, shown in Photo
6/1. The wheel (which is described as an 8-inch
wheel) has a self-contained hub section and
includes an air valve.
The tires come in a Standard tread design
that is either diamond shaped or a modified
diamond shape. Bar tread tractor type tires are
an option offered at additional expense. Bar
tread tires which offer greater traction, are
shown in Photo 6/2.
Standard tires are excellent for most tilling
and cultivating jobs with average soil and crop
conditions; however, you may want to put
chains on Standard tires forsnowplowing orfor
tilling in extra tall and juicy cover crops, or til-
ling in tall grass while breaking in new ground.
More information about Bar tread and tire
chains is below.
Tires and wheels can only by purchased as
a complete tire and wheel assembly (part #9142
for Standard tires and #'s 9143 & 9144 for Bar
tread tires) from Garden Way Manufacturing
Company, Inc. We are unable to supply the
Wheels or the tires to you separately.
In order to prevent throwing the tiller off
balance, which makes it difficult to guide the
tiller in a straight line, we recommend that you
keep tire pressure equal. ?

This type of tire is particularly helpful for til-
ling in loose soil, snowplowing, earth moving,
or when using the furrower attachment while
tilling soil that has not been previously tilled.
Sar tread tires are especially useful while tilling
light soils, or sandy soils. You can get more
traction with Bar tread tires than with Standard

tread tires. The 8-inch Bar tread tires and
wheels can be used for all Troy-Silt Horse
Model Tillers (see Photo 6/2). Your tiller uses
a 4:80/4:00 tire on an 8-inch wheel assembly
(part #9143 and #9144, left and right). This is
a tubeless tire, mounted on a single-piece,
white steel wheel which is very similar to those
on automobiles. They can be purchased only as
a complete assembly.
