Who it's for
Best for: Small Italian orti where a light, gear-driven tiller with a proper cast-iron gearbox is worth more than raw power.
Strengths
- Cast-iron oil-bath gear group on a 50 kg machine
- 70 cm tiller for a small-engine motozappa
- Loncin engine, cheap to run; Kohler option
- Sold and serviced by an Italian maker since 1955
Trade-offs
- One forward speed, no reverse
- 2.9 kW is for maintained soil, not breaking ground
- Dearer than big-box tillers of similar power

Front-tine machine. Width and weight determine how much ground you cover and how manoeuvrable it is — heavier machines bite harder but ask more of you to turn and transport.
