The JRCO Hooker Soft Plug Aerator with Electric Lift is intended for lawn care professionals who are looking to save time and labor with aeration. This JRCO Aerator attaches to commercial walk-behind and riding mowers.
The Soft Plug Aerator aerates approximately 66,000 square feet per hour at 5 mph. The 38" wide aerator pulls up to 6 holes per square foot. The holes are 1/2" wide x 1 1/4" long and up to 3" deep.
The tines pierce deep into the soil, hooking and lifting loose plugs of dirt that disperse rapidly, spreading nutrients over the surface. Your turfgrass will not be torn up when using this Aerator. The lifting action of the tines prevents soil compaction that is evident with hollow tine aerators, allowing good filtration of air and water in the lawn.
Each of the 3 caster assemblies has 2 floating cast iron tine heads. The casters swivel and this permits you to turn while aerating. The 6 floating rotor heads independently lift over tree roots and rocks while the other heads continually aerate.
