product owners.
This rotary tiller has been designed with care and built by
skilled workers using quality materials. Proper assembly,
maintenance, and safe operating practices will help you
get years of satisfactory use from the machine.
Application
The RTR10 and RTR15 Series Reverse-Till Rotary
Tillers are designed and built by Land Pride to till soil for
seedbed and planting preparation. Both models are
adapted for 540rpm PTO, three-point hitch Category 1
mounting and are Quick-Hitch adaptable. The RTR10
has a 17-25 horsepower tractor requirement and the
RTR15 has a 17-35 horsepower requirement.
Reverse rotation tillers tend to achieve greater depth
penetration resulting in moving and pulverizing more soil.
Also, they bury more of the residue in the soil. These
Land Pride Tillers have uses and applications in
landscaping, nurseries, gardens, and light commercial
use. See “Features and Benefits”, “Section 6” for
additional information.
