Used a couple of times a year on about 1/4 acre so lots of life left from this fantastic and solid British made machine. Can be towed behind a ride on lawnmower (see photo) then the handle attached to get into areas like corners. Runs well and has been maintained.
Retails for £3,600 new.
Manufacturers description below:
By teasing out the thatch and moss from your lawn you will make it more resistant to drought, insects and disease problems. By removing this layer of thatch the grassed area will regenerate naturally and will become more receptive to fertilisers and other pests and disease control products. The SCH rotary raker with its powerful Kohler petrol engine and twin 'v' belt drive rotates four rows of free floating scarifying blades which carry out the vital dethatching process.
For areas that are inaccessible to the garden tractor the unit can be manually operated with easy attachable handle which is provided with the machine.
