Application
The RTR05 Series Reverse-Till Rotary Tillers are
designed and built by Land Pride to till soil for seedbed or
planting preparation. The RTR05 Series tillers are
adapted for tractors with 540 rpm PTO speed and
Category 0, Category I-Limited, and Category I 3-Point
hitch on tractors in the 17-25 HP range. The RTR05
Series are Quick-Hitch adaptable.
Reverse rotation tillers tend to achieve greater depth
penetration, moving, and pulverizing more soil in the
process, while burying residue as opposed to leaving it
on top. RTR05 Series Land Pride Tillers have
applications in homeowner landscaping, smaller
nurseries, gardens, smaller hobby farms, and medium
duty residential use.
See “Specifications & Capacities” on page 25 and
“Features & Benefits” on page 26 for additional
