Real Landscapers have difficult lawn areas to work in. They are often small with awkward flower beds and borders which makes the operator stop, turn 90º or 180º and start again. Sometimes they have tricky corners, narrow paths and overhanging trees.
Tine retractor handle enables the operator to skip over obstacles without slowing down Ergonomic handles and controls make operating simple
Now all these areas can benefit from aeration using the Plugger PL400 which has been specifically designed with Lawn Contractors in mind. The Plugger PL400 is just 550mm (22 inches) wide and can gain access to those difficult areas and tight gateways, and what is more it can aerate lawns of all shapes and sizes, work on the turn and get around those difficult obstacles. The Plugger PL400 relies on engine power, not weight, to get full penetration and is almost never beaten by hard compacted soils.
