Billy Goat CR550HCEU Compact Petrol Scarifier (Honda GC Engine)

Scarifying is another vital piece in the lawn maintenance jigsaw and a good quality scarifier is a necessary tool for a real turf-enthusiast or professional or semi-professional lawn keeper.

This rugged, commercial-quality scarifier comes with a powerful, precision engineered 4.6hp Honda GC overhead-cam engine with a substantial 160cc cylinder-displacement. It delivers quiet, smooth performance; features Easy Start technology; and is the lightest in its class.

The scarifier is compact unit, but nevertheless has a generous 51cm working-width for impressive productivity.

An adjustable working-depth (1.2cm-1.9cm) means you can adapt to the conditions; while a free-swinging, heat-treated blade reel ensures comprehensive thatch and moss removal.

The build-quality is robust and hardwearing, with construction-grade cast-iron bearings and the solid, single-piece composition minimising vibration, in turn putting less stress on the chassis and maximising durability.

The handles are foldable for simple storage and transportation; and they're fitted with padded soft-grips for comfortable, low-fatigue operation. Engagement of the blades is operated by a single full bail-arm.

All the pulleys are heavy-duty steel; and there's an adjustable idler that allows the operator to set the tension accurately for optimum belt-life.

The wheels are steel rimmed and the tyres are bearing-mounted for smooth rolling and longer life.

In addition, this model can be converted into a verticutter by the addition of a quick-change slicing reel (available separately).
