Imants Rebel Rotavators

The Imants Rebel Rotavator is the finest rotary cultivator that money can buy. Chosen by discerning nurserymen and horticulturalists as well as flower and vegetable growers throughout the UK.

With its unique central gear drive system, the Rebel can be used right up to the edge of glass houses, strawberry tunnels or walls without problem. There are no side chain cases to catch or snag, which means that the full working width equals the total overall width of the machine. This has huge advantages when manoeuvring and cultivating amongst support posts and pathways within covered growing areas. Central gear drive is far superior and stronger than chain driven alternatives and is virtually maintenance free. The rebel is also favoured by tree nurseries and growers producing crops by strip cultivation. These customers appreciate the maximum utilisation of total available growing area, which only this machine can give. A number of standard working widths are available in 2 different model types. These comprise of: The lightweight (L) model and a heavy duty (Z) mode. In addition Imants produce a special ‘Over-Top’ version which is particularly valued by flower growers.
