PL1803H Aerator

Name: PL1803V Aerator
SKU: PL1803H
Availability: InStock

The PL1803H is a compact 46 cm aerator designed for smaller properties and rental fleets. Its reciprocating cam tines propel the unit forward and pull cores up to 7 cm deep, with no need for wheel lifting or add-on weights. The unit steers easily, even in hard soil.

Powered by a 169 cc Vanguard® engine, the PL1803H offers more torque headroom than the Honda-powered PL1801H, helping it stay consistent under load. Folding handles allow compact transport and storage, while the no-tool removable cover and four-tine design keep maintenance simple.
