Aerators

AET48 Aerator

For larger property aeration, the tow-behind AET48 delivers exceptional productivity and flexibility. The standard 48" / 122 cm modular frame can be quickly reconfigured to 24" / 61 cm, with interchangeable parts that allow the unit to match different tow vehicles and access points. Each 24" section carries four tine stars with six tines apiece, coring up to 8 cm deep, and uses a single-bolt tine fastener to cut service time.

For maximum output, the AET48 can be expanded to 72" / 182 cm using the optional kit. Optional water containers replace bulky steel weights and sit directly above the tines for improved aeration depth and consistent ground contact.
