Subsoiler for My TZ24DA

[Carl]

Just picked up a new toy for my NH. A Kingkutter subsoiler. When it gets down to 18" in the ground it works the NH!

I bought it to bust up the clay in the garden. Last time I tried to grow a crop the roots would go down to where the plow cut the ground and stop. Figure that the subsoiler should make a difference. We will see.

Had to run the tractor at rated RPM and go slow to pull it. But it works!

I use one to lay buried electric cables occasionally. I used the ballested JD9904wd I used to have that last time I used. It would just idle along with it in low range with full penetration, we have fairly sandy soil but you can hit sandstone.

What modification did you do to your subsoiler so that you could lay cable? I am thinking about using mine to lay a run of 1 1/4" polyethelene pipe for a sump pump drainage.

Well, I just dug the trench with it, then cleaned out by hand with a spade which was easy. I have used for that for about 10 years. I most recently did about 200 feet of 2 seperate 10-3 with ground UF to a building which are wired in parallel on 240, it was the cheapest way to go, vs. monthly paying for another meter base and provided plenty of power for my building. I put one of those 240V 1500 watt quartz 240 lights out front of the building, when I turn it on, it's like daylight outside the building.
