Hi,
Anyone out there use a mantis tiller---are they as good as they are
cracked up to be. I am using an Ariens rear tine tiller very effective but
also heavy and cumbersome. Specials are on now so I am considering
purchasing one.


I've had a Mantis with a Honda engine for years and it works great.
I've read that the two stroke is OK if you pull it a couple of times
with the spark off before starting.
