Whether you’re a professional groundsman, or simply a domestic fine-lawn enthusiast, this superbly well-engineered petrol-powered scarifier from Apache will more than meet your requirements.

Driving its three banks of 14 hardened-steel flail-blades is a very high-performance 5.5hp Briggs & Stratton Intek OHV engine, which features B & S’s Magnetron® electronic ignition system for fast, headache-free starts; and a dual-element air-filter for the comprehensive protection of critical parts. Power is sent via a clutched V-belt drive.

The Apache AR601 Petrol Scarifier has a heavy-gauge steel body that will easily cope with any accidental impact, in turn ensuring season-after-season of unfailing service.

It offers a huge 60cm working-width, so it will make short work of large areas; and it’s equipped with infinitely-variable height-adjustment for precision setting of the blade position.
