)J-HOE’S Customer-Proven Basic Principle 
All the power is applied to the hexagonal roto shaft, which 
has 12 or 15 rugged, hook-pointed or weed type (optional) 
teeth, evenly spaced around it. The entire weight is distributed 
on the two rubber-tired rear wheels, and the roto teeth. A 
simple clutch mechanism can start or stop the rotor at opera- 
tors will. To cultivate, the operator simply lowers the rotor 
into the ground; the rotor, revolving at over 300 r.p.m. forms 
ROTO-HOE working-in cornstalks, previously mulched with ROTO-CUTTER 
the motivating power as the teeth dig into the ground, pulling 
the unit forward. The operator simply guides the unit, easily 
controlling the depth of cultivation by slight pressure on han- 
dles, and by slightly holding back. For depths greater than 6”, 
ROTO-HOE can be pulled backward. 
Thousands of customers will testify to the fingertip control 
of cultivator and engine power which they experience with 
ROTO-HOE. They like its marvelous maneuverability which 
makes it so easy to cultivate close up and in tight spaces; and 
the quick, easy way they can lighten the load and maintain 
engine speed—a feature which gets such excellent results from 
the 2 h.p. engine. You should practically never stall the engine 
from over-loading.
