Etesia Launch MSC45 Pedestrian Scarifier

April 19, 2017/in Press Release/by Admin

Etesia has launched the MSC45 – a powered pedestrian scarifier for domestic and professional use on lawns and amenity areas.

The machine has a working width of 45cm comes complete with a Honda GX160 5.5hp engine ensuring that it will be suitable for applications ranging from treating the average lawn to rejuvenating estates and formal grounds.

Scarification is one of the most essential lawn care tasks. The Etesia MSC45 pedestrian scarifier can be used for regular use or as part of a maintenance programme at different depth settings with the use of interchangeable reels that can be swapped without the use of any tools allowing the spring mounted tine reel to remove thatch and the scarifier unit to take out more of the bulk. The raking action removes thatch and organic debris to improve drainage characteristics and to allow more oxygen and water into the root zone.

The new model in the new scarifier range has been built for dependable operation and durability which has become synonymous with the Etesia brand.

Specifications include:

Working width	45 cm
Area coverage	up to 1500 m²/h
Motor	Honda GX 160
Capacity	5.5hp
Scarifier unit	Scarifier unit with fixed blades and torque overload safety clutch
Accessories	Scarifier unit with loose blades or spring mounted tines
Special features	Steel rims with ball bearings, step-less adjustment of operating height
