A garden rotovator is an equipment used for mechanical loosening and cultivation of soil. Machines of this type are equipped with curved or hook-shaped blades, which are located on a rotating shaft. The speed of rotation of the blades can be adjusted. Unlike agricultural soilers, which require connection to a tractor as a source of power for the blades, garden soilers have their own internal combustion engine. Soil tillers are available in different variants - depending on the model, energy is supplied either exclusively to the knife shaft (smaller models) or (larger models) to the knife shaft and to the drive wheels, thus making the equipment easier to operate and maneuver. 

When choosing a specific model, it is worth betting on a garden soil tiller equipped with the option to adjust the working width and speed of the knife shaft. This will significantly facilitate the cultivation of wide and narrow beds, also allowing to cultivate the soil between rows of plants. The advantage of machines of this type is the reverse gear, which makes it easier to maneuver or withdraw in a situation of jamming in the roots of trees or shrubs, and adjustable handles to improve work in beds and flowerbeds. Some ripper models can be equipped with additional accessories, such as claw harrows, edgers, or lawn care equipment such as scarifiers or aerators. Tillers with the option of detaching the knife shaft can also be used to pull a plow for plowing, as a cultivator, a potato planter, or, with the attachment of a trailer, as a small tractor for transport. 

The main use of a garden soil tiller is to prepare the soil for growing crops of various types and mixing fertilizers with it. The use of a soil tiller for this type of work significantly speeds it up, while the blades additionally loosen the soil, thereby improving air and water relations in the soil, which positively affects the process of soaking up rainwater, reducing the formation of stagnation on the soil surface. Machines of this type will also prove useful in combating young weeds in row crops.
