When you're running a tractor operation that demands precision, flexibility, and the ability to work close to obstacles or over tire tracks, the BEFCO TILL-RITE T60 rotary tiller changes how you approach soil preparation. Built for tractors ranging from 35 to 60 horsepower, this tiller delivers professional-grade performance with a built-in manual side-shift system that lets you offset the unit up to 26 inches to the right. That means you can till directly over your tractor's tire path, work tight against fence lines, buildings, or trees, and cover ground that would otherwise require multiple passes or hand work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eForge Claw is proud to distribute the BEFCO TILL-RITE T60 series, a line of rotary tillers engineered and manufactured entirely by BEFCO in the USA. These aren't assembly-line units sourced from outside suppliers. BEFCO controls every stage of production, including the gearbox, rotor assembly, and chain drive system, ensuring that each tiller meets strict standards for durability, serviceability, and real-world performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe T60 series includes two models: the T60-366 with a 66-inch working width and the T60-374 with a 74-inch working width. Both models feature a slip clutch driveline for PTO protection, ASAE Category 1 three-point hitch compatibility, and a maximum working depth of 8¾ inches. The side-shift capability is what sets these tillers apart from traditional center-mount units, giving operators the ability to work more efficiently in tight spaces, along edges, and over uneven ground without repositioning the tractor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBEFCO designed the T60 with a choice of forward or reverse rotor rotation, and this isn't just a technical detail. It's a practical decision that affects how you manage your soil conditions. Forward rotation tends to bury rocks and debris, leaving a smoother finish on top. Reverse rotation brings rocks and roots to the surface, making it easier to clear them before final grading or planting. You set the rotation direction based on your soil type and project goals, and BEFCO offers reverse rotation as a factory-installed option so your tiller arrives ready for the job.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe gearbox on the TILL-RITE T60 is manufactured in-house by BEFCO using high-strength steel gears, premium bearings, and top-quality seals. This is a critical difference. Many tiller manufacturers source gearboxes from third-party suppliers, which can lead to inconsistencies in quality, availability of parts, and long-term durability. BEFCO's gearbox is built to handle the sustained loads and shock impacts that come with tilling rocky soil, clay, compacted ground, and overgrown fields. The lateral ASA 100 chain drive runs in an oil bath and offers over 180 degrees of gear coverage, distributing power smoothly across the rotor and reducing wear on individual components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach flange on the T60 rotor carries six blades as a standard configuration, a design choice that reflects the higher horsepower capacity of the compatible tractors. More blades per flange means finer soil pulverization, better incorporation of organic matter, and a more uniform seedbed. The blades are outward-turned to keep the rotor supports clean and maximize the effective working width. BEFCO uses full-size, heavy-duty tiller blades that resist bending and breakage even in challenging soil conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe rotor shaft on the T60 is flanged, which makes blade service and replacement straightforward. You can disassemble the rotor from the tiller without specialized tools or extensive downtime, a feature that saves time and reduces frustration during maintenance. The rotor supports are stamped steel, providing greater durability than welded or fabricated alternatives. These supports take repeated impacts from rocks, roots, and debris without cracking or deforming.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdjustable side skids allow you to set the working depth anywhere from surface level to the full 8¾ inches, giving you control over how aggressively the tiller engages the soil. Whether you're preparing a garden bed, incorporating cover crops, renovating pasture, or breaking new ground, you can dial in the depth that matches your soil conditions and project requirements. The parking stand keeps the tiller stable and secure when it's disconnected from the tractor, and the chain case includes wear protection to extend the life of critical components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe T60-366 model weighs 740 pounds and offers a 22-inch side-shift range with eight flanges and 48 blades. The T60-374 model weighs 798 pounds and provides a 26-inch side-shift range with nine flanges and 54 blades. Both models operate at 540 RPM PTO speed and use a 1⅜-inch driveline with an ASAE Category 6 slip clutch. The slip clutch protects your tractor's PTO and the tiller's drivetrain from damage caused by sudden impacts or stalling conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eForge Claw offers free nationwide shipping on the BEFCO TILL-RITE T60 series, so you can order with confidence knowing that freight costs won't add unexpected expenses to your equipment investment.

When you're working along fence lines, buildings, or tree rows, you can offset the tiller to the right and cover ground that would otherwise be inaccessible without repositioning your tractor multiple times. This means less wasted motion, lower fuel consumption, and faster project completion. For operators managing large properties or commercial sites, those efficiency gains add up quickly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDurability translates directly into lower operating costs over the life of the equipment. The BEFCO-manufactured gearbox, ASA 100 chain drive, and stamped steel rotor supports are built to withstand the kind of abuse that comes with tilling rocky soil, clay, and compacted ground. You're not dealing with frequent breakdowns, part replacements, or costly downtime. The flanged rotor shaft makes blade maintenance straightforward, so you can keep the tiller in service without extended shop time or specialized labor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe choice between forward and reverse rotor rotation gives you control over soil conditioning based on your specific project goals. If you're preparing a seedbed and want a clean, rock-free surface, forward rotation buries debris and leaves a smooth finish. If you're renovating overgrown pasture or clearing new ground, reverse rotation brings rocks and roots to the surface where you can remove them before final grading. This flexibility means you can use the same tiller for a wider range of applications without compromising results.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSix blades per flange deliver superior soil pulverization compared to tillers with fewer blades per flange. This is particularly valuable when you're incorporating cover crops, compost, or organic amendments into the soil. The additional blades break up clumps more effectively, distribute material more evenly, and create a finer tilth that's ideal for planting. You get better germination rates, healthier plant establishment, and more productive soil in fewer passes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ASAE Category 1 three-point hitch and quick hitch compatibility make it easy to attach and detach the T60 from your tractor, reducing setup time and making it practical to switch between implements throughout the day. The slip clutch protects both your tractor's PTO and the tiller's drivetrain from damage caused by sudden impacts or stalling conditions, which is critical when you're working in unpredictable soil with hidden rocks, roots, or debris.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFree nationwide shipping from Forge Claw eliminates one of the biggest barriers to acquiring quality equipment.

It's well-suited for garden bed preparation, pasture renovation, food plot establishment, cover crop incorporation, site grading, and new ground development. The side-shift capability makes it particularly valuable for operators working in tight spaces, around obstacles, or along property boundaries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBefore using the T60 with a quick hitch, always verify that there is a minimum of six inches of overlap on the PTO driveline. If there is insufficient overlap, contact your dealer to purchase a longer driveline before operating the equipment. This is a critical safety requirement that prevents driveline separation during use. The tiller operates at 540 RPM PTO speed and requires a tractor with a Category 1 three-point hitch and a 1⅜-inch PTO shaft.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdjust the side skids to set the working depth based on your soil conditions and project requirements. Start with a shallow depth setting if you're working in rocky or heavily compacted soil, and increase the depth as conditions allow. Check the chain tension and oil level in the gearbox and chain case before each use, and inspect the blades for wear or damage. Replace worn or damaged blades promptly to maintain cutting performance and prevent stress on the drivetrain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRoutine maintenance includes greasing the PTO driveline, checking chain tension, changing gearbox oil according to the manufacturer's schedule, and inspecting the rotor supports and side skids for wear. The flanged rotor shaft makes it easy to remove the rotor for blade replacement or off-season storage.
