Rotary Tiller
A hydraulic rotor with tines cultivates the soil, breaking up clods and mixing in suitable soil amendments. It is a soil preparation tool, not a rock excavator or a means of removing debris.
When to choose it
- Preparing planting beds and landscape areas
- Cultivating soil before turf or seeding
- Mixing compost or amendments into suitable soil
When it’s not the right call
- Stone separation. A tiller mixes soil; it does not screen out stones or rubbish.
- Roots and wire. Buried roots, wire and rubble can foul or damage the tynes.
- Saturated clay. Wet soil may smear. Assess the ground condition before cultivation.
Sizes we work with
The size depends on your machine and the job. Share the carrier make and model, material and dimensions so we can check the setup.

The Right Setup Starts Here
Tell us what you need to get done. A few key details about your job help us specify, configure and commission the right attachment for your machine, application and site requirements.
- Soil: Type, moisture, roots, rock and buried obstructions.
- Cultivation: Area, working depth and any amendments to be mixed in.
- The finish: Planting, turf or seed requirements and any follow-up levelling.
- Your machine: Make, model, mounting plate, rated operating capacity and relevant hydraulic or electrical controls.

Common questions
What is a skid steer rotary tiller used for?
A rotary tiller cultivates and mixes soil for planting beds, turf and landscape preparation.
Can a rotary tiller work in rocky ground?
Large rocks and buried debris can damage the tines. Clear obstructions and share the soil conditions.
Does tilling leave a level finish?
Tilling loosens and mixes soil. A rake, smudge bar or grading tool may be needed for the final finish.
Can I mix compost into soil with a tiller?
Yes, mixing suitable amendments into soil is a typical use.
Will a rotary tiller fit my skid steer or track loader?
Send us the machine make and model, mounting plate details and hydraulic flow and pressure. The rotary tiller's weight, the loader's rated operating capacity and any electrical controls also need to match. We check the combination before it mobilises so it arrives ready to work.
