Anybody have a "rule of thumb" regarding rock size a 60" NH tiller will handle without breaking tines? Been picking all rocks at least 3 inch in diameter, should I pick down to 2"?

I use a landpride tiller, but brands sould not make a big difference. When it gets rocky or tree roots (small ones) in the area I lower the RPM's to a idel and just creep, My rule of thumb is if the tiller don't jump or clater because of rocks, roots or even hard ground you will never hurt it. trottle back in those area's and watch the tiller, it will tell you when it's time to clean your area again. my 2 cents
