Product Overview

The RYOBI 40V HP Brushless 18 in. Rear Tine Tiller (RY40702B) brings powerful, gas-equivalent tilling performance to the RYOBI 40V battery platform. Built for serious gardeners and landscapers, this cordless tiller is designed to dig deep and churn heavy soils without the mess or maintenance of a gas engine.

With an 18-inch tilling width and 10-inch tilling depth, it’s perfect for breaking new ground, turning over garden beds, or prepping soil for planting. The counter-rotating tines improve traction and break through tough ground efficiently, while self-propelled drive makes it easy to maneuver without excessive effort.

Powered by a high-performance brushless motor, the RY40702B maximizes runtime and torque. And because it’s part of RYOBI’s 40V system, you can share batteries with other outdoor tools in your collection.

Note: This is the bare tool—battery and charger sold separately.
