Plug Aerator, 3-Point Hitch, Water-Fillable Drum\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe 48 in. working width covers larger lawns in fewer passes, with mounting via 3-point hitch for compact tractors. Bolt-in replaceable spoons pull soil cores from the turf, opening channels for oxygen, water and nutrients to reach the root zone and relieving compaction in clay and heavy soils.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe drum accepts up to 32 gallons of water, adding 267 lbs of ballast to drive the spoons into dense ground. Fill volume is adjustable, so penetration can be matched to soil condition rather than run at a fixed weight. Rotating the tow bar lowers the drum into the aerating position or raises it for transport between work areas, with no tools required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe drum turns on a 1 in. shaft supported by greasable ball bearings, allowing scheduled lubrication instead of sealed-for-life replacement. Spoons are individually replaceable as they wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"ltr\"\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e48 in. aerating
