The JRCO Hooker
Aerator is designed for the lawn care professional. It saves time and labor with
high-production aeration. Aerate 66,000 square feet per hour at 5 mph.
The 38-inch wide Hooker Aerator punctures up to six holes per square foot. Holes
are approximately 1/2" wide by 1-1/4" long and up to 3" deep. Tines pierce deep
into the soil, hooking and lifting loose plugs of dirt that disperse quickly,
spreading nutrients over the surface. No unsightly hard plugs accumulate on the
lawn. The lifting action of the tines prevents soil compaction that is common
with hollow tine aerators and allows good filtration of air and water into the
lawn.
Each of the three caster assemblies has two floating cast iron tine rotor heads.
The casters swivel, allowing turning while aerating. The six floating rotor
heads independently lift over tree roots and rocks while the other heads
continue to aerate.
The front-mount aerator attaches to the JRCO mount bar with two clevis pins. An
electric actuator lifts the heads for transport.
* Hooking tines lift soft soil plugs.
* Aerator heads caster allowing zero-turn maneuverability.
* Electric actuator lifts aeration heads for transport.
* Switch control for electric lift mounts on operator control arm for easy
operation.
* Hardened steel one-piece rotors assemblies and hardened axles for long life.
* Aerator frame supported by castering wheels with heavy-duty yokes.
* Independent rotor heads lift over rocks or roots while remaining heads
continue aerating.
* Aerator attaches to JRCO mount bar with 2 clevis pins.
