Application
The RTA20 & RTR20 Series Rotary Tillers are just right
for home gardening, landscape work, vegetable farming,
or food plot maintenance. Available in three widths, the
20 Series Rotary Tiller turns up hard packed ground,
leaving a perfect seedbed for gardens to grass. Land
Pride’s RTA20 forward rotating tiller can work in all types
of ground conditions, with best results being obtained in
fairly mellow conditions. The RTR20 Series Rotary Tillers
feature a reverse tilling action for tougher ground
conditions. The reverse action “sucks” the tiller into the
ground, which prohibits the tiller from “walking” on hard
ground. The RTR20 Series Tiller also incorporates spring
loaded “sifting” rods behind the tines to help bury large
rocks and debris. The reverse action of the rotor brings
material up and over the top. Rocks and vegetation
cannot get through the sifting rods so they fall first. Soil
continues to get sifted before it falls, building a layer of
large to small dirt clods burying the rocks and vegetation.
Reverse tilling can reduce the number of trips needed to
turn the soil over.
