Hello, I have a front tine rototiller with a reverse function, and I am
wondering when the reverse would be useful.

I don't have this feature on my Honda 110 mini-tiller. *Reverse is
useful to get out of a corner, especially for the larger tillers.

My guess would be if the tines got caught up in roots or whatnot.

Well, if the tines get caught, I suggest you stop the tiller
immediately and remove the entanglement--reverse function or not, to
prevent breaking a pin.

Also, would you consider a reverse function to be an essential feature of a
rototiller?

Not at all.



Thanks for any insight into this,

Jon

A friend of mine played one of his old country music 33's in reverse.
Got back his wife, his dog, his pick-up, ...........
