7. FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The scarifier is pushed by hand over the grass area to be dug. A petrol engine drives the cutting tools.
The cutting depth is set by adjusting the individual central height adjustment mechanism.
Loosening up:
Through its rotation, the cutting unit removes the felt layer formed by moss, lichen, and weeds. It transports the
loosened material to the outside or into the grass catcher box. During cutting, the blades penetrate the soil and
ensure that the lawn is loosened, and the nutrients can be better absorbed. We recommend loosening the yard
in spring (April/May) and autumn (October).
Aerate:
The cutting mechanism (the aeration roller) rotates, combs the lawn, and aerates the slightly mossy areas. The
removed moss is transported to the outside or into the grass catcher box. During aeration, the soil surface is
rubbed down, which improves drainage and, at the same time, facilitates the absorption of oxygen.
We recommend aerating the lawn as needed throughout the vegetation period.
