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

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.
With such a small rotovator you will find it hard to break the
surface, best to get someone in with a machine like a Howard gem.
Breaking new ground is hard on any machine, you would be better to
skin the surface off and rough dig, burying the old grass then
rotovate the dug ground, more work but worth it in the end.
Howard Gem, why there's a name from the past. When I was a Farm Rep
back
in
the 70's and 80's I sold many a Gem to small nursery's and small
holdings.
Along with their large machinery as well. What a shame they went like
so
many firms dating from those days.
All our yesterdays just at the sound of that name. Howard Gem
I had one when we had a chunk of land in Leicester. Fantastic machine.
Leicester City Council wanted me to build on the land, so the Howard went
and the bricks came :-))
Two blocks of flats there now :-))

He may be telling the truth. It's a fact that less than 2% of the male
population in the UK are masons, yet 40% of Town Councillors who award
Council Buildings contracts are masons. Which builders get the successful
tenders, are they masons or non-masons? You guess.
