I purchased a used hydrotiller for my Ingersoll 448 last summer and have not used it yet. I had to remove and reseal the hydraulic motor which was leaking past the output shaft.

The thing I think will be the best part of using the hydrotiller is the ability to reverse the rotation. This feature will be useful when extra deep and fine tilling is required. Also, I think it will help remove long grass and weeds that have wrapped around the tines by running the tiller briefly in reverse direction.

I can't wait to use my Ingersoll tiller this spring.
