Spike Aerator, 3-Point Hitch, Water-Fillable Drum\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe 48 in. aerating width covers large turf areas quickly, mounting via 3-point hitch. Welded steel tines slice holes into the turf and push soil aside rather than extracting cores, so no plugs are left on the surface. That makes this configuration suited to golf courses, sports turf and any maintained area where post-aeration cleanup or visible debris is a problem.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe drum accepts up to 32 gallons of water for 267 lbs of added ballast, driving the tines into firmer ground. Fill volume is adjustable to match soil condition. Rotating the tow bar lowers the drum into the aerating position or raises it for transport between work areas.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eBecause spiking displaces rather than removes soil, turf recovers faster than with core aeration, though it provides less compaction relief. Best suited to sandy and lighter soils. The drum turns on a 1 in. shaft with greasable ball bearings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"ltr\"\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e48 in. aerating
