QUICK TIPS
Remove rocks and roots before tilling in order to prevent damage to the tiller/cultivator. Work
the soil when it is neither too wet nor too dry. To test the moisture level of the soil, take a
handful of soil and squeeze it. if it remains in a tight ball when you release your grip, it is
too wet. if it crumbles, it is ready to till. Dry soil is difficult to cultivate, and valuable topsoil
can be blown away when tilling on a windy day. fall tilling presents many advantages over
spring tilling. it eliminates the need to till in the spring, and it allows for earlier planting. Soil
moisture and temperature conditions are favorable for decomposition of the organic matter
that is turned under in the fall. furthermore, disease organisms, insects, and perennial
weeds can be reduced by tilling in the fall.
!
IMPORTANT: If weeds, roots, vines or other growth gets
collected around the bottom of the tiller/cultivator it is
important to stop tiller/cultivator. Disconnect from power
source and clean tines using a screwdriver or other object
which can help remove debris. If necessary, removes tines
to untangle debris from shaft and tines.
