PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an electric tiller which accurately display the residual quantity of the electric capacity of a battery and whose display surface can easily be sawn.SOLUTION: The small electric tiller equipped with an electric motor 8 for driving a rotary portion R for tilling a field and a battery 48 which is an electric source of the motor 8 is characterized by disposing a display area capable of distinguishably displaying a state that a battery residual capacity is sufficient for driving the motor 8 and a state that the battery residual capacity is insufficient for driving the motor 8, in a battery residual capacity monitor 26c for displaying the residual quantity of the electric capacity of the battery 48, and disposing a controller 100 for more increasing a threshold than a preliminarily set value, when a battery residual capacity equal to or lower than the preliminarily set threshold is detected.COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT【課題】バッテリの電気容量の残量の表示を正確に行い、かつ表示面を見やすくした電動耕耘機を提供すること。【解決手段】圃場を耕耘するロータリ部Rを駆動するモータ8と該モータ8の電源であるバッテリ48を備え、バッテリ48の電気容量の残量を表示するバッテリ残量モニタ26cではバッテリ残量がモータ8の駆動に十分な状態とモータ8の駆動には十分でない状態を区別して表示できる表示領域を設け、バッテリ残量が予め設定する閾値以下を検出すると閾値を前記予め設定した値より上げる制御装置100を設けた電動耕耘機である。【選択図】図14
