It may not seem like it, but remember that it's ADVERTISING.
Granted, mounted rototillers will do a decent job without a creeper if the ground is extremely soft, like having been recently plowed.
But, if you have to plow it first, you defeat the purpose of the rototiller. The purpose of the rototiller is to till up the ground, not rake it. A pass or two with a disc or drag harrow will get the same result in a lot less time and a lot less fuel.
I'm not sure if they just expect you to ride the brakes, or if that tiller works like those crude front-tine walk-behind tillers with a spike in the ground to limit forward movement.
Even in 1st gear a 300 is way too fast to break up packed ground with a rototiller. Pull the TA, and the tiller will just push the tractor across the field.
