Description

Agri-Fab 45-0294 40in Tow Behind Lawn Dethatcher, 20 Durable Spring Steel Tines Lawn dethatcher, Designed to pull behind Lawn and Garden Tractors, Black Uproot dead, matted grass and dislodge hard- packed dirt for planting with this efficient tine de-thatcher from Illinois farm and garden supplier Agri-Fab. The tine de-thatcher penetrates and turns up dried grass, weeds, and soil in 40-inch wide swathes. Loosening heavy thatch and compacted dirt allows water to penetrate deeper and enhances drainage while letting in vital oxygen. Without these elements, grass and soil can become prone to disease and insect- and pest- related problems. Users tow the de-thatcher behind a tractor for quick productivity. The de-thatcher features twenty 3/16-inch spring-loaded tines, heat-treated for greater durability in tougher conditions. Rustproof and replaceable, the tines are affixed to a heavy-duty steel tray. Users lower and lift the tines from use by pulling an upright lever on top of the tray. The long lever is easily accessible from the tractor seat. Two 7-inch diameter semi-pneumatic wheels with a width of 1-1/2 inches traverse most any terrain. A hitch pin accompanies the de-thatcher. For the best results, de-thatch in the spring, mid-summer, and fall to keep yards and fields healthy and attractive. The de- thatcher was manufactured in the USA and requires no tools for assembly. Upon shipping, the de-thatcher measures 40-1/2 by 11 by 4 inches and weighs 31 pounds. -Jessica Reuling

Update: Four stars to 5. Worked perfectly! However, much like measure twice cut once...start off with no weight on the dethatcher. I placed two patio bricks on it and it dug right into my yard PLUS clogged the tines! LOL! With zero weight it worked perfectly. Again however, I was able to use it and keep my grass catcher on at the same time. My problem was that the catcher interfered with the dethatcher when I turned right and only to the right. It would lift it off the ground on one side. But that issue is only mine and mine alone...usage may differ for you. So basicly, no problems and I stick to my original statements above especially that there is no reason to pay more, this is the one. They are all the same. When I did my due diligence on these dethatchers I wanted to know if they were any good. Well, most of the low star reviews had NOTHING to do with performance only on the fact that they were incapable of assembly. I mean no disrespect so don't reply in anger to me. I received the box yesterday. Damn it was heavy! That's what you get when you buy a product made in the USA. Let me jump ahead and say that if this is the "cheap" model I see no reason to spend more. However this comes from a DIY homeowner so perhaps it would make a difference for commercial use. The build....be organized....lay everything out....get the correct tools together...and READ the instructions! Keep them close by and look at the illustrations. Give yourselves a good 2 hours and have patience. I'm no rocket scientist but I do know which end of a hammer to use. At times it was a bit confusing but even if you make a mistake it's nothing you can't come back from. Yes, it helps to get ALL the pieces, which I did....identify which bolts and nuts are which...don't rush this thing. If you don't have the time to do it right then don't do it at all! That's what my daddy would say. This is a very solid piece of equipment and with care should last me till I no longer need it. I will be attaching it to my TroyBilt Tonka toy rear engine mower and my neighbor will use it on his home tractor so I'm sure you will be able to use it on your toy. I didn't refer to the youtube video but if needed it's there I've been told...I will be using it this weekend and anticipate no problems. It's a pretty straightforward piece of equipment. Good Luck all, bite the bullet, Once it's done it should last a looong time. Just keep a wrench on the bolts and you'll use it for years. Yes, I am pleased with my purchase. The only reason I didn't give this 5 stars is because I haven't used it yet. I hope to return to update . ... show more

    • Works great. Made in USA. Easy to assemble but hitch on dethatcher needs to be longer.
Style: Dethatcher
Recently purchased this dethatcher for our church lawn which is about an acre. Here is what I learned. Assembly: You'll need the following tools, a 1/2" socket and 1/2" boxed end wrench for the vast majority of the nuts and bolts (boxed end wrenches will work but just takes more work and time). A 9/16' and 3/4" wrench to install the wheels. A large flat blade screw driver to install the tines and a pair of pliers to clamp down the guide wires installed through the tines. Make sure to set aside about 1 1/2 hours or so to put it together. I set up a couple of saw horses and placed a sheet of plywood on them so I could sit on a chair and assemble the dethatcher. Follow the pictorial instructions carefully. Make sure to place the dethatcher in the same direction as the pictures so you can follow along with the process. If you look at the pictures carefully it's easy to follow. I found all parts were included and the drawings of the nuts and bolts match exactly with the size of the actual bolts, no guessing. A bonus is the bolts are grade 5 (heavy duty). When installing the tines, make sure to place the unit on a solid surface so you'll be able to bend the tine holders easily. I set mine on the concrete floor. Once I put it together I was ready to go to work. Now here is why I gave the unit a 4 instead of a 5 star rating. We have a John Deere D140 riding lawn mower. I found the hitch on the dethatcher was not long enough to reach the towing connection on the mower. I had to remove one of the bolts and move the connection forward, securing it with only one bolt. It worked, but the hitch should be about an inch longer. The dethatcher worked flawlessly. I didn't even have to add any additional weight. I was pleasantly surprised. Worked up the whole acre in no time at all removing all kinds of thatch. And here's a big plus IT'S MADE IN THE USA. ... show more

    • Works great
Style: Dethatcher
Great lawn tool. Took me about 45 minutes to put it togather and adjust the height. Ran into very my front yard. It was looking pretty rough about 2 years ago. 30 year old Bermuda sod. Had a lot of runners and dead grass packed down. I ran the dethather over it once without adding any weight. It did a great job. I dont have a bigger on my mower so I just went back over it with my mower and munched everything up. I think i will give it a couple of weeks and the go over it again with a little weight added. Great little dethather for the money. ... show more

    • Good value for the price
Style: Dethatcher
Likes: low price and works reasonably well. The tines attach via bendable tabs instead of individual bolts--much easier to do and less stuff to come loose. Dislikes: not easy to store as it doesn't have a way to collapse the handle. Tines rapidly accumulate thatch which reduced the effectiveness of the tines, so you have to clean it periodically. The handle is not that easy to engage/disengage from the tractor seat. Some aspects of assembly are not easy, but overall the instructions were fine and the assembly is not difficult. ... show more

First time using a dethatcher. Almost rented one because I won’t use it often but it was $100 to rent. Might as well buy it if you have room to store it. AWESOME job. Very very pleased with the results. I tried slow and fast speeds. Testing the results and the springs/tines held up great. Even going over uneven spots. I did not put any additional weight on top and there was no bounce at all, however next time I will to dig a little bit deeper. It created an all day job with the amount of thatch it removed. Load after load after load. I ended up using a leaf blower to help speed up the clean up process and a rake to finish. Very easy to use, it took me just over an hour to assemble with a couple of distractions, follow the instructions because there is an order to tightening the bolts to keep the hitch straight and level.

    • Agri-Fab lawn products review
Style: Dethatcher
I’m the kind of guy who genuinely enjoys designing and building things and assembling products designed by others. So, when I read the Agri-Fab reviews complaining about assembly difficulty, I simply assumed these were from folks who did not have the skills or the temperament that I have and went ahead and ordered the Agri-Fab 48” tow behind lawn plug aerator, the Agri-Fab 42” tow behind lawn sweeper, the Agri-Fab 40” tow behind lawn dethatcher and the Agri-Fab tow behind 130 lb. capacity broadcast spreader. Truth be told, the assembly process was not the enjoyable and satisfying experience I was anticipating. There were several sections of the assembly instructions that were somewhat ambiguous and parts of the assembly process itself that were distinctly tedious. In addition, after assembling all four items, I was missing one of the two metal rods that support the rear of the sweeper bag. Like most of us, I loath having to call customer service and deal with the labyrinth of menu options and the inevitable and annoying AI interface. To my surprise, the Agri-Fab customer service line was answered by an actual human being, and a most polite and pleasant individual at that! What was initially a dreaded phone call turned out to be a very enjoyable conversation with a wonderful woman who not only promptly issued an order for my missing part, but genuinely lifted my spirits after a long, frustrating day of assembling the four pieces of equipment mentioned above. It’s comforting to know that should I need replacement parts in the future, Agri-Fab is there to support their customers. It was this exceptional customer service experience that I felt deserved mentioning and that’s what prompted me to write this review. As mentioned in numerous other reviews, once assembled, Agri-Fab equipment is well made and should last for many years with minimal care and routine maintenance. In an age where customer service is merely an expense to be minimized by most companies, regardless of customer satisfaction, Agri-Fab is truly a stand out. Kudos to an exceptional American manufacturer. Thank you. ... show more

    • Just what I needed
Style: Dethatcher
I have 1.5 acres of which 1/3 has died. I will not rake that much by hand, and the little electric models probably would not hold up. This took care of it! But I was so tired after assembly and removing the hitch ball off my zero-turn, I just tested a small spot. Worked better than I expected, had to add some concrete edgers to weigh it down, but then WOW! I failed to realize that now I have to get rid of all that dead grass, but I can just mulch it up with the mower (like I said no raking). Since I have a zero turn I can't reach the lever to raise and lower it. But I can get off easy enough ... show more
