Description
Hire a Rotary Hoe in Perth
Hire a rotary hoe in Perth to break up hard soil, clay, or old lawns and prepare garden beds or new turf easily. Our walk-behind, petrol-powered rotary hoe is suitable for single-person operation and is available for hourly, daily, or weekly hire, making it ideal for both DIY homeowners and professional landscapers.
This tough, self-propelled machine is designed for effective soil preparation. It handles compacted clay and hard soils, reworks old lawns, and prepares garden beds for planting or turf installation. Equipped with counter-rotating tines, it provides precise and efficient soil cultivation while remaining easy to control.
Rotary hoes are versatile tools that help reduce soil crusting, improve soil aeration, and minimize compaction. They are particularly useful after heavy rain, when fine-textured soils can harden as they dry. Using a rotary hoe ensures your soil is ready for healthy turf or garden growth.
Note: A rotary hoe is perfect for turning hard clay soils, preparing garden beds, or readying soil for new turf. It is not to be confused with a rotary tiller, which is better suited for soft, sandy soils.

How to Use the Rotary Hoe
Before operating the rotary hoe:
Adjust the handle to a comfortable working height.
Put on ear protection, gloves, and eye protection.
Ensure the flap in front of the tines is down to prevent soil from kicking up.
For cold starts, turn on the fuel switch and choke, set the throttle to full, and use the pull cord to start the engine.
Once running, disengage the clutch lever to move, and use the forward drive lever and tine lever to control movement and tilling independently.
Keep your hands and feet away from the tines at all times.
