Tow the DR Tiller behind your ATV, riding mower, or tractor and you'll break ground and turn soil faster and easier than you ever thought possible! The DR does the hard work while you ride in comfort and adjust the tilling depth by remote control.
Unlike walk-behind tillers, the DR® Tow-Behind Tiller doesn't divide its engine power between moving the machine forward and turning the tines. The full power of its overhead valve DR® engine is dedicated to the real task at hand, tilling the soil. Your tow vehicle takes care of the propulsion, and with its weight, actually holds the tiller back to create maximum churn (and prevents the tiller from lurching forward as walk-behinds often do).
The result is the DR® Tow-Behind will till unbroken ground, including tough sod, in a fraction of the time required by any walk-behind tiller. Even better, it is twice as wide as most ordinary tillers and applies twice the tine coverage. That means faster, more thorough tilling, with none of the strain associated with tillers that require sheer strength to control them. Instead, you just ride and relax.

DR PRO 36T Rototiller Note:(Engine differs from model shown in video.) (2:18)
Powered Actuator
The Actuator raises and lowers the wheels, which in turn raise and lower the tines. A holding force of 250 pounds assures the tilling depth remains where you set it. The Actuator is powered by a 12-volt, 17-amp battery that will raise/lower the machine over 100 times on a single charge.
Remote Control
The Remote Control allows you to make precise adjustments to your tilling depth without leaving your towing vehicle.
24 Bolo Tines
Forged of tough tempered steel, these tines spin at over 230 rpm to dig up to 7-1/2" deep and mix soil completely. The intricately designed sweeps and curves of each tine minimize the wrapping of vegetation.
Belt-Drive System
Transfers full power from the engine to the tines. Shear pins on the tine shaft are designed to break if the tines hit an immovable object, to protect the engine and engine shaft from damage. (Four extra shear pins are included and they are simple to install. No tools required.)
SMOOTH-TRAK™ Hitch
Our unique hitch absorbs shocks and jolts so that minimal forward motion from the tiller is transmitted to the towing vehicle for smoother and easier operation.
Extra Heavy-Duty Steel Frame
This frame is built to last under punishing conditions. Made of 1-1/2" square tubing and 12-gauge steel. Baked on powder coat finish resists corrosion.
Transport Tires
The tires are pneumatic and 14" in diameter and 5-1/2" wide for easy rolling during transport.

Sent me a machine that wouldn't start, still in the local repair shop for 3 weeks. Took 4 months to receive it and it was inoperable!
Edward Burt
The day I received the tiller I put the trickle charger on the battery. Used it today for first time. Barley let the tines touch the dirt, broke 6 Shear pins and was going slow. Raised the tiller up and down maybe 10 times and the battery went completely dead. Could not raise the tines up to get it loaded on the trailer. Had to unhook tiller from ATV, Take pin out of the cylinder unhook it, Lift it up manually put ratchet strap from the wheels to the front of the frame to get it transported back to the trailer. Battery is no good. Not Happy. It is under warranty I hope to get a new replacement Battery. In my opinion the ground would have to already be worked up prior to using this tiller.
Makes small work of weeding
Garden plot was full of weeds. This tiller took care of that. Did break two shear bolts, but easily replaced and no other damage because shear bolts did what they were designed for.
great product
this unit works as described works good on new ground but will go through a few sheer pins would reccomend

Purchased the rototiller for my dad who is too old for a walk behind model. First time out it sheered the blade pins off. It wasn’t deep and the garden has been plowed for years so the soil wasn’t that hard. Regardless when I called yo have the tiller returned they wouldn’t except because I had put gas and oil in it. Don’t get me wrong it’s a great tiller the fact that we have to run it to see if there are any issues and can’t run it without oil and gas is insane. My mother actually called and spoke with a man concerning the situation. But she didn’t know all the details and waited for me. He stated he would be there to speak with her the next day but was not available when we called. They transferred us to another gentleman who was less than helpful. Overall a poor experience for such an expensive piece of equipment. Keep this in mind if you are thinking of purchasing one.
Q.How can I get a gas tank for my Roto tiller. I have ordered two before but one was too small and the other not bolt up with the holes.
A.Thank you for your question. You would need to reach out to our technical team directly to get the correct gas tank. They can be reached at 1-800-687-6575.

Q.IS THERE A WAY TO RAISE OR LOWER UNIT IF REMOTE CONTROL FAILS? IS THERE A HILLER AVAILABLE FOR THIS TILLER? IF SO WHAT IS THE COST? I LIVE IN ILLINOIS, EQUIPMENT USED IN FARMING IS NOT SUBJECT TO SALES TAX, HOW WOULD YOU HANDLE THIS? THANKS
A.Thank you for your question. There is not manual backup for the raising and lowering of the tines. We also do not have a hauler available for this machine. All tax details need to be handled directly with the Sales department at 1-800-687-6575.
