Experts say the best time to scarify lawns is the months when the grass is generally growing strongly because it makes recovery much faster. Therefore, heavy scarifying should be done in March, April, September, and October and lighter scarification can be done in February and May. Manual scarifiers – in addition to strong, good-sized blades, a telescopic handle is a useful feature to make it as comfortable as possible to use - a soft-grip is also a bonus. Some types are designed so you can adjust how deeply the blades rake through the grass and thatch, which is extremely useful. Chris recommends you always keep an eye on your weather app before you plan toscarify. Never do it during a cold snap, as you could end up causing more harm than good. The Cobra battery charger is very straightforward to understand – main lights are charged and fully charged with a handy percentage indicator as you expect from quality cordless tools these days The SMITH FS050 is a fast, rugged and lightweight portable hand-held scarifier designed for high-performance edging or removing in hard-to-reach locations. It's versatile, offering a variety of cutters with a 4- or 6-shaft cutter setup, plus an extra set of shaft holes. Reversible left or right handles to power through high spots, low spots, and in very tight areas. Add a vacuum for dust-free applications.

You can also use a petrol or electric hand scarifier. These will scarify and remove thatch from your lawn without the physical effort of a leaf rake as well as helping to aerate the soil. Assembling garden tools often feels like a chore, so I always appreciate products that require minimal assembly. This is what VonHaus promises with their 2-in-1 electric scarifier, and that’s a promise that they’ve managed to keep. Assembly took about 15 minutes overall– you simply need to attach the handles and the trigger, then swap over the aerating roller for the scarifier when necessary. The only tools you’ll need for assembling this machine are a Philip’s screwdriver and an Allen key (the Allen key comes included). He adds: "However, if you have a large garden a rake is quite time-consuming and requires more exertion than a machine scarifier which has sharp tines that rotate at high speed and vertically cuts turf." Do youscarifybefore or after cutting grass?That said, read on below for a breakdown of what to look out for when shopping for lawn scarifiers and rakes to help make sense of the different things on offer. What’s the difference? He said: “They are real monsters, employing powerful engines and blades to intensively cut down into the turf and vigorously extract thatch, moss and weeds.” When is a leaf rake better to use when scarifying?

But what bugged me was the collector. Perhaps I was having a dozy day but the frame (which way round it should go) took me a good few minutes to decipher. The user manual might want to work on that.The Einhell GC-SA scarifier also has a 33-cm working width that lets you work on a lawn at a faster rate, saving your time. Being a relatively quiet machine makes this scarifier suitable for urban settings – you won’t have to worry about your neighbours complaining about the noise it’s making, and ear defenders are definitely not needed. I also appreciated the machine’s safety features, from its bright orange lead that remains visible even in dark grass to the button that needs to be pressed before the machine can be turned on.

There are a few differences in what some of these appliances do. Deciding what kind of gardening equipment you’re going to require needs you to consider what your garden needs. This comes down to the different functions of the various bits of machinery on test here, in terms of what they do, size and range as well as, of course, what you want. Due to limited features, this scarifier can only handle lawns that have an area of 100 M2 or less. Electric Scarifier The aerating roller works just as well. You may find that you don’t actually need to use it once you’ve scarified, but, if you do, you’ll be happy with the results. The main takeaway from testing this machine is that it’s the best lawn scarifier to buy on a budget. However,if you also need an effective aerator, you may need to look elsewhere.

So, find a path, patio or hard surface and adjust the height on your scarifier so the blades just touch the floor. Then, turn it on and go over your lawn for a few meters. Keep making minor adjustments until the thatch comes up without tearing great chunks out of your lawn. For starters, the AL-KO 38E has a 38cm cutting width, which is large enough to handle moss in a huge area, saving time as you are working. Let’s start with assembly – something that I never really enjoy doing. This Hyundai needed a little more work than the other models I tested. Assembly took about 30 minutes in total. This isn’t a huge amount of time, but keep in mind that I have a fair bit of experience assembling scarifiers. For someone who has never done this before, it’ll likely take much longer, especially considering that the instruction manual was very little help.

Since this lawn scarifier is manufactured from powder-coated steel, it can last for a long period of time without getting deformed. Not to mention, powder-coated steel is a sturdy material that can withstand various forces, making it easy for you to work on your lawn. Always follow the manufacturer's guidelines and safety instructions when using handheld concrete scarifiers to ensure proper operation and minimize the risk of accidents or injuries.With its 32cm width, this machine is best-suited for small- to medium-sized gardens. That said, it could still handle a larger lawn too, it would just take longer than if you were to use a scarifier with a wider body (such as the AL-KO). The four scarifying depth settings make it even more versatile, and the fact that there’s just a single handle that you need to move to adjust the height definitely works in this product’s favour.
