• Model Width Range: Available in working widths from 42" to 80", giving operators the flexibility to match aerator size to lawn, field, or tractor requirements.
• Recommended Tractor HP: Engineered for compact and utility tractors from 20–55 HP, ensuring smooth pulling power and consistent coring performance across all models.
• Category 1 Hitch: Standard Cat‑1 hookup provides universal compatibility and stable operation, making attachment quick and hassle‑free for most tractors.

• Six Spoons per Hub: Each hub carries six balanced spoons that produce consistent 4.5" deep cores, improving soil aeration and root development.
• Independent Paired Hubs: Dual hubs rotate separately to reduce turf disturbance, allowing smoother turns and cleaner aeration patterns even on uneven terrain.
• Dual Bronze‑Bushed Rotor Flanges: Each rotor is supported by two bronze bushings, reducing friction and extending the lifespan of the aerator’s moving components.
• Concrete‑Fill Weight Box: Integrated ballast chamber allows concrete filling to increase downforce, improving penetration in hard or dry soil conditions.
• Self‑Storing Support Legs: Fold‑away legs keep the aerator upright during storage or tractor hookup, making attachment safer and more convenient.
• Quick Hitch Compatible: Designed to work with most quick‑hitch systems, reducing setup time and improving operator efficiency in the field.
