All seven machines in Mountfield’s cordless Freedom48 range are powered by one high-specification lithium-ion battery cell, so you’ll be able to assemble a comprehensive selection of zero-emission, go-anywhere garden machinery at a price that won’t break the bank.

The Mountfield MR-48LI Cordless Tiller’s compact, easy handling design makes it ideal for inter-row weeding and aeration; seed-bed preparation; and cultivating raised beds (the tilling-width ranges from 21-26cm)

It’s fitted strong and durable steel rotors that will take challenging soil-type in their stride; and it’s equipped with a pair of transport wheels for easier realignment and hassle-free movement to and from the plot.

Already a compact unit, the Mountfield MR-48LI has a fold-down handlebar that ensures it will occupy very little space in the shed or car-boot.

Another key feature is the adjustable depth-gauge, which can be set as low as 20cm, depending on the nature of the application (lower for aeration and bed prep; higher for surface weeding).

Two batteries are available, one rated at 2Ah; the other at 4Ah. Both batteries and the charger are available separately.
