Purchasing a tiller and front snow plow for a 322

The tiller: Is it a 30 hydraulic or the bigger 48 mechanical?
If hydraulic, is it the front, mid mount pump style or the rear pto version?

It's the 48 mechanical tiller. Hey has the lift rod but he wasn't sure it he would be able to get the shaft out of the 318 very easily. I'm hoping he can.

The 48" mechanical tiller requires a three point hitch. There is no lift rod. It also needs the 2000 RPM rear PTO.

The hydraulic tiller should be 30 inch or 42 inch from what I know but I could be wrong, And like Wfburton159 said, the 48 inch should be a mechanical tiller.

He may have been running that on a 317 but not a 318. That model works with the closed rear end found on 317, 316 (Kohler early model), 314, 312, but not on 316 later, 318, 322, or 332.

Hmm maybe I'll look at purchasing the snow blower he has for sale instead. Even tho I was really hoping the tiller would work for my garden this year.

Many folks don't realize that JD changed the rear to the open style and those attachments that fit the closed rear machines no longer worked with the open rear end. The advantage was a true 3pt cat 0 hitch was available for the open rear machines.

All front attachments work through the whole 3xx series, could need a few things like different belts but they will all work.

Ya I use to have a 317 and it had that style tiller so I thought it would work on the 322. I didn't know the frames where different.

Make sure you get the model of that snowblower though, it looks like the model that mounts to the JD 400 and that wouldn't fit a 3xx series machine.

The telltale on the blower is that the Model 49 that fits the 3xx series doesn't have the hydraulic chute control.

It doesn't look like this one does. Just the lift.

Again, anything that fit a JD 400 will not fit directly to a 3xx series machine.

If he had a 3xx machine there just have him show you that it mounts properly up front. The frame size of the JD 400 is different and they won't fit properly on the mount points on a 3xx machine.

The 318 he's selling with the attachments is pretty beat I'm thinking he just has a bunch of random attachments that he's trying to get rid of it all in one shot. But I told him I only want the attachments. I'm no sure they even went on the tractor.
