When working with blades, a safety switch is vital in avoiding unnecessary accidents. If the blades hit something that they shouldn’t, the safety switch should be located at the handles for easy accessibility to stop the motor from operating. In most cases, certified rotavators like the SwitZer Heavy Duty 6.5 HP Petrol model come with these safety features as a requirement, so be sure to be on the lookout.

The Hyundai HY150 Petrol Garden Tiller is just the petrol rotavator that you need if you’re faced with expanses of unturned soil. It has a powerful 4-stroke 150cc engine (more powerful than some scooters!) and a wide tilling width of 56cm. It doesn’t matter if you need to just turn the topsoil or go far down as you can adjust the tilling depth up to (down to) 26cm. I also really like that the tilling depth is adjustable down to 26cm. You can just turn the top few centimetres or go right down and get any stones buried in the soil. Just use the rear depth control rod on the machine to make the necessary adjustments.
