Selecting the blade equipment for scarifying

IMPORTANT
Implement damage due to different scarifying blades
Imbalance on the rotor
Only equip the rotor with one type of scarifying blade.
Make sure that you have the right blade combination and arrangement for your application area.

When scarifying, a distinction is made between wide scarifying and narrow scarifying.

  • Wide scarifying, blade spacing 51mm.

  • Narrow scarifying, blade spacing 17mm.

  1. For wide scarifying:

    Install the scarifying blades 1 at a spacing A of 51mm, Changing or replacing the blades.

This enables deeper action without being too aggressive on the sward.

  1. When installing the blades 2, pay attention to the marking for the first row.

Example figure for wide scarifying:

  • GH-S 1500 Drive 1

  • GH-S 1800 Drive 2

  • GH-S 2100 Drive 3

  1. Install scarifying blades with a width of 3mm or 2mm, Changing or replacing the blades.

  2. For narrow scarifying:

    Install scarifying blades on all of the hook bolts on the rotor.
NOTE

Narrow scarifying is relatively aggressive and it suitable for regeneration work in the spring on grass that is strongly matted with moss.
