So smooth, you'll forget it's an aerator. Now featuring a HONDA™ motor!
The rugged, user-friendly XT5 is the aerator of choice for landscapers looking to increase profits and productivity. Turfco's revolutionary TurnAer™ Technology allows you to turn with the tines in the ground eliminating the need to stop and lift, allowing you to aerate through the turn. Performance like that saves time and reduces fatigue.
Simple and intuitive operation controls get you up and running fast. Patent-pending tine wheels enhance steering and increase hill-holding ability. Taking technology even further, the XT5 also features a hydrostatic drive system, so you can turn and steer in reverse.
Unique covered chains outside the aeration area means all day hassle free operation
Rugged, uni-body steel frame stands up to the rigors of aeration
Optimized adjustable weight placement gives you excellent tine penetration

"We like the XT5 a lot! After years of competitor drum aerators, these are a treat and they do not break. We use to spend so much time messing with sloppy chains on our old machines. With the reverse on them, it is easy to heavily aerate bad areas for overseeding." Josh ImswilerGrassroots of New England
