Your tiller will perform best if you adjust it to match the soil conditions. To optimize your tilling, we recommend following ESTER:

•Evaluate your soil conditions. Is the ground hard, or are you working in loose soil?
•Set the tiller according to the conditions. Depending on your model of tiller, you can adjust the depth bar, the tine configuration, throttle, or gear selection.
•Till the area briefly.
•Evaluate the tiller’s performance.
•Reset the depth bar or other controls as necessary, and continue tilling.


Setting your tiller properly depends on the model. Mini-tillers and mid-tine tillers behave very differently than rear-tine tillers. Always refer to the owner’s manual for your specific model before using your tiller.
