Power Tillers

These Power Tillers with forward rotating tines have several advantages over front tine tillers. You can till at a consistent depth for the seedbed preparation. Both the tines and the drive wheels turn in a forward direction. However, rear tine tiller drive wheels only allow the machine to be propelled forward slowly despite the forward action of the tines, so the drive wheels actually hold the machine in place so that the tines can dig the seed bed to the desired depth. On the Power Tillers, the tilling depth is controlled by the depth gauge on the tiller box. Using a Power Tillers, cultivating at a consistent 2" depth is a snap with the depth gauge set at 2". The adjustable width tiller boxes offered by BCS get your tiller into the narrow aisles between rows. Power Composting is efficient because Power Tillers can rotate much faster than front tine tiller tines. The forward rotation of the fast turning tines come down on the plant material, chopping and tilling it into the soil, and then the tines come around to chop the plant material again.
