1. Úvod a produktview
The Dedra DED8706 Electric Lawn Scarifier/Aerator is a versatile garden tool designed for effective lawn care in small to medium-sized gardens. This machine combines two essential functions: scarifying and aerating, to improve the health and appearance of your lawn.
Vertikutácia involves removing thatch, moss, and dead grass from the lawn surface, allowing water, nutrients, and air to reach the grass roots more effectively. prevzdušňovanie creates small holes in the soil, reducing compaction and further enhancing air and water penetration.
Key features include a powerful 1800W electric motor, a 38 cm working width for efficient coverage, and a 5-level depth adjustment system to suit various lawn conditions.
