Any thoughts on Best practice for rotavator use?

(it's a 5hp one which is meatier than the 3hp one we've had and loads
better than the tiller thing we have also)

Mow before attempting grassed areas?

Dig or plough the ground. Rotovate to produce a fine tilth if that's
what you want.

Small rotovators only cultivated the top 100/150mm of ground, not
enough for many purposes.
