Posted April 22, 2020 Just out of curiosity, can tiller wheels be "locked" so they don't steer (i.e. function like a normal tractor/trailer)? I'm just curious because it would be a long ride across the country in the back end of a tiller... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I also know that some manufacturers will deliver tillers such this on flat beds. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
