Advantages

Its 38 cm working width balances coverage and maneuverability, while the adjustable depth control—up to 1.2 cm—lets you adapt performance to the lawn condition.

How to use

Before use, check the lawn for stones, sticks and other debris. Assemble the scarifier and attach the collection bag according to the manufacturer instructions. Set the working depth according to turf condition—shallower settings for routine light scarifying, deeper settings up to 1.2 cm for heavy thatch or moss. Start the motor from a stable position and move the scarifier at a steady pace in overlapping passes to ensure even coverage. After finishing, turn off and disconnect from the mains, empty the collection bag and inspect the blades or tines for wear or damage.

Usage recommendations

Use the scarifier on dry or slightly damp turf, ideally during the growing season when grass can recover quickly. Avoid scarifying frozen or waterlogged ground. Regular maintenance of cutting elements and keeping the collection bag clean will extend the tool’s service life and maintain performance.
