- Maximum Thatch Removal: For larger mowers and lawns, a 48" working width and 2 rows of 12 independently flexing spring steel tines comb through a lawn, lifting thatch up and out of the lawn where it can be mowed or mulched to promote a healthier root system.
- Ideal for Large Yards: Wide 48" working width is perfect for larger mowers or bigger greenspaces - covering more ground for quicker results.
- Long-Lasting Construction: All steel construction, tines are made of durable spring steel; in the unlikely event of a breakage, a safety rod is included to catch the tine and prevent contact with mower blades. No flat rubber-tread transport wheels for durability.

Yes it can! However, depending on how well you wish to scarify before reseeding, you may need to make more than one pass.

Height Adjustment
Questions have been asked why no way to raise up to go over drives or side walk.
What are the cost of the tines.
And do you make a pull behind rake to gather small twigs. I have several big,old trees. And there are a lot of small branches and twigs falling all the time. Over half an acre is to much to rake by hand.
Thanks for any information you may have.
Paul1 answer-
ProductExpert23· 12 years ago
The dethatcher has an automatic transport position to protect it from pavement. The replacement tines would be ordered direct from the manufacturer. They would give you prices. We do not have a pull behind rake for twigs for lawn tractors. We do have 3 point rakes for tractors.
