The Millers Falls tillers are designed to thoroughly mix and cultivate the soil with their massive sidewise curved tynes. This ensures that the cultivated soil becomes a suitable base for sowed seeds.

These tillers are built to withstand Australian conditions and are manufactured to Millers Falls highest quality standards. They are laser cut from steel plates and utilize a tab and weld design, ensuring maximum accuracy and strength. The gearboxes used in these tillers are over-engineered for reliable performance in harsh farming conditions.

To ensure thorough tilling of topsoil, these units have six heavy-duty tiller cutting blades per flange and three cutters on each end of the unit. They have four adjustable depth settings and a maximum tilling depth of 160mm, ensuring versatility for different soil types and crops. The PTO-driven units are equipped with a 50Hp gearbox coupled with a slip clutch for maximum protection of the gearbox and PTO shaft.
