DescriptionWhy buy the FTS S‑FTL125 Rotary Tiller?
The 1.25m S-FTL125 is the mid-width rotovator in the FTS range — the one to reach for if you're running a 20–30 HP compact tractor and need to turn compacted vegetable plots, allotment beds or estate ground into a tilth ready for planting.
Working the soil to a sowing tilth
28 left- and right-handed blades mount to the rotor cylinder and bite the ground as the PTO drives at 540 RPM. On hard ground, start shallow and take a second pass deeper. Let the plot dry after rain before you start; wet clay will clog the rotor.
Depth and finish, both adjustable
Height-adjustable skids on each side set the working depth up to a 9 cm maximum, so you can dial it back for a first pass and drop in for the second. The rear flap adjusts separately to control how level the soil sits behind the machine.
Before you start
Walk the plot first and lift out stones and foreign objects. Lower the tiller, engage the PTO at 540 RPM, then ease into the ground at low forward speed so neither tractor nor implement is asked to fight the soil.

Review Your FTS S‑FTL125
Fantastic product.
A great tool and very good value at the price
I’ve been using the G-FTL155 with my Massey Ferguson 35 to break up the top soil on my wildflower meadow. It’s been perfect for that and was actually more effective than I mentioned. A great tool and very good value at the price.
The rotavator is fantastic! The ground was very stoney. The thing went through the lot. Shifted stone the size of a shoe box and the blades are unmarked, most impressed!
