query about tiller FL1271R

[GreensvilleJay]

Might possibly buy this FL1271R tiller. obviously old but seems 'ok'. Would be used behind my BX23S.
Anyone run one ?
Comments, pros,cons ??
If I do get it , I'll have to figure out WHERE I stored the 3PH kit 7 years ago...

That a 60" tiller for an L of the 35 to 60 PTO HP range.
You're expecting a 17.7 HP to run it.

The ad says 48" tiller, Messicks says 52"
Here's the ad...

Looking at one picture , figuring 26" for 3PH width, add 12" either side, it does look more 48ish than my 60" tiller.
