In that case
you either have to find a used pair or do a conversion to 3 point version. A nice conversion can be found on Orange tractor Talks with more pictures here and here. Video here.Good luck!

Yes you do, you will have to pull the three point arms and remove the hitch, but they are there.

I guess that's why nobody told me this would be easy!!!!Yep looks that way!
At last, a happy ending!

I don't hear a fat woman singing so it can't be over!
I understand that a lot of the weight of the tiller will be on the forks at the rear of the tractor. My concern is lifting via the 3PH using the spindly arms on the tiller. (Blue arms in the pic.) Am I being too cautious?

Guess I'll hook it up and go play....uh work.YES your being overly cautious!
They will work fine.
Another question about my mystery tiller. Searching the web I've seen lots of pics of similar tillers, some using the wheels and some not. I'm guessing they are a combination guide and depth control. Is using them a matter of preference or what? Any guidance on this would be helpful.
I have the same question as I have no wheels at all, just the central column. Do I need to fabricate a rear wheel or two to make it work OK?

The rear wheel option is for depth control, most didn't have it as they don't work very well in rice patties!
You could add them but if you set the top link for max depth that will work fairly well too.

After looking at 100's of tiller pics all over the web I've come to the conclusion that my mystery tiller is an RS1000. Nice cloudy day so I decided I'd pull the covers, check the drive chain and clean it up. Did I mention the clouds? Started raining for the first time in over two months. Naturally, the tiller is exactly where I left it two months ago - in the driveway!
