Key Features & Benefits

  • Water Ballast Tank for Added Weight
    Fill the tank with water to increase downward pressure for more effective aeration performance.
  • Heavy-Duty Base Weight
    Built with substantial weight from the start for consistent ground penetration.
  • Secure Wheel Mount Design
    Wheels bolt firmly in place with no pins or latches to manage when rotating the tow bar 180° for lowering or lifting the drum.
  • Helps Loosen Compacted Soil
    Improves soil condition for healthier turf and stronger root development.
  • Increases Water Filtration
    Allows water to penetrate deeper into the soil instead of running off the surface.
  • Improves Oxygen Exchange
    Helps increase oxygen flow into the soil while releasing trapped carbon dioxide.
  • Encourages Root Growth
    Creates better growing conditions for stronger, healthier grass.
  • Grease-able 1" Pillow Block Bearings
    Durable bearing design helps support smooth rolling and long service life.
