Cut the grass as short as you can get it without scalping the lawn
Run a dethatcher and rake up the thatch so the seed can lay directly on dirt. If it doesn't it'll never sprout p
Cut the grass one more time to pick up anything missed from the above
Run a verticutter in two opposing directions to make your seed rows to the depth mentioned above
Fertilize with grass seed starter. Do not use fertilizer with a pre emergent or it'll prevent the grass from sprouting
Lay the seed and water, water water. Cut the first time when the grass reaches 4"
Use the above for a yard that needs help. If the entire lawn is crapola kill it off with two applications of grass killer a week apart. Wait a week then do the above
Have to do this in early fall.

You are the idiot. They mark front and back.
Repped.
Using a cultivator to remove weeds is like using a hand grenade to open a beer. No assurance of getting the root and high probability of spreading the seed.
Gotta use pre emergent fertilizer in the early spring and spray the weeds that get through that barrier.

You don't want to till for grass seeding. The poster is telling you the way to do it. You only want rows an 1/8 to 1/4 inch deep. Verticutter is the machine to use. Anything deeper and the seeds will smother

The general plan would be to spray the existing lawn plants (grasses and weeds) with a herbicide like Roundup, killing 'em all. Then, once plants are dead, run a de-thatcher unit over lawn, set on the 'low' setting so it digs down into the soil a couple of inches as it cuts. That basically prepares the soil as a better seed bed for germination of seeds and establishment of new plants. Then apply starter fertilizer and lime as needed, sow new seed and gently rake in, mulch with wheatstraw or whtvr, and water to keep seed bed moist until new grass is established. TMI?
Also, Roundup works on whatever plant it lands on, but has no 'soil activity', so spraying it on your lawn plants won't affect your trees, shrubs, or beds unless the spray drifts and lands on them, too.
edit: I'm slow and the post above has better details.
Yes this will help to turn and loosen the soil for reseeding.

Tilling can bring up weed seeds that may be dormant in your soil, thus negatively impacting your reseeding efforts.

Just wanted to add that you need to know your lawn type. early fall is best for cool season grass. Not required but it's ideal to reseed during your grass type's optimal growing season, I believe warm season grasses are summertime
Excellent add my friend. Lawn has to be established with good roots before summer heat moves in that's why fall is primary seeding time to give the new seeds and lawn a fighting chance the next summer BUT some lawns, seeds, environments are different and it's best to know your lawn, your seed and your local. Again. Good point!

I don't think this tiller, at 14" and only 6.5 amps, has the weight or torque to handle anything much more than small flower beds. There's no way this has the power to dig into hard clay and break it up when preparing new planting beds. And without the wheels, handling it even in soft soils will be difficult without walking behind, which will immediately compact the soil. I'd give this a pass and look to higher amperages.
