Honda FF500 Tiller – Robust Cultivation for Large Gardens and Allotments
Take control of demanding soil preparation with the Honda FF500 Tiller – a powerful, versatile, and durable solution for large gardens, allotments, and smallholdings. Combining Honda’s renowned reliability with superior handling and performance, the FF500 is designed to make tough cultivation tasks effortless and precise.
Smooth, Powerful and Efficient Performance
The Honda FF500 is equipped with a 160 cc Honda GCV160 4-stroke OHC engine, offering clean, quiet and efficient operation. Its 4-stroke design eliminates the need for fuel mixing, ensuring easy starting and low emissions. Delivering strong torque at low revs, this engine powers through compacted or heavy soils with ease – perfect for deep soil turning and thorough cultivation.
The gearbox provides three forward speeds and one reverse gear, giving you full control over speed and direction. Whether you’re breaking new ground or finely tilling prepared soil, the adjustable gearing ensures maximum efficiency and manoeuvrability.
Wide Working Width and Deep Tilling Capability
Designed for larger garden spaces, the FF500 achieves a maximum tilling width of 550 mm and a maximum tilling depth of up to 200 mm. The counter-rotating tines work powerfully through compacted or clay soils, breaking them down effectively while maintaining stability. This dual-action design prevents “bucking” and ensures consistent soil turnover for perfect seedbed preparation.
Engineered for Comfort, Control and Stability
Despite its powerful output, the Honda FF500 is remarkably easy to handle. With a dry weight of approximately 77 kg, it provides excellent balance and traction. The low centre of gravity, large rear drive wheels and front-mounted tines deliver steady progress across uneven terrain, while the loop-handle design allows multiple hand positions for comfort during longer working sessions.
The adjustable handlebar height ensures ergonomic operation for users of all sizes, and the front wheel adjustment makes changing tilling depth quick and simple.
Built to Last – Honda Quality You Can Trust
Constructed with premium-grade materials and backed by Honda’s exceptional engineering, the FF500 is built for long-term reliability and performance. The counter-rotating tine system and strong gearbox minimise vibration and wear, while precision engineering guarantees smooth power delivery and operator comfort.
Like all Honda garden machinery, the FF500 is supported by a 5-year domestic warranty (and 1-year commercial warranty), giving you peace of mind that it will perform season after season.
Ideal For:
Large gardens, allotments and smallholdings
