Features
Helical Rotor for Efficiency

The helical-shaped rotor on the RT Series Rotary Tillers decreases horsepower required to drive units. They are designed so they enter the field at different times for more efficiency.
Skid Shoes Control Depth

The working depth can be adjusted by the height of the skids, which is easily done with the adjustment bracket on the RT Series Rotary Tillers.
Adjustable Offsets Allow Central or Side Position
Adjustable offset allows the tiller to be used in a central or side position with respect to the tractor’s wheel track allowing you to till closer to existing plants and into deep corners. The chain-supported tailgate is self-leveling.
