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.

Tine Engagement Bar and Footpad
Engage the tines by stepping on the footpad and disengage them using the spring-loaded lever. Simple, fast and easy to operate behind any suitable tow vehicle.

Pillow Block Bearings
Durable pillow block bearings with grease fittings reduce wear, improve reliability and minimise downtime during heavy commercial use.

Single Bolt Tine Fastener
Each tine star uses a single-bolt fastening system, making tine changes quick and straightforward while keeping the assembly rock solid in operation.
