The 40V max XGT® 15" Dethatcher / Scarifier (GVU01) features a 2-in-1 design for dethatching or scarifying, which revitalizes turf, allowing water, sunlight and nutrients to reach lawn roots.

The 15" Dethatcher / Scarifier revitalizes turf with powerful cuts that allow water, sunlight, and nutrients to reach lawn roots. The dethatching Spring Tine Reel features independently flexing steel spring tines for combing and lifting layers of thatch and moss. The Scarifier Blade Reel is designed with 16 steel blades for deep cuts to pull up thick layers of thatch. There is a dial on the body that adjusts the working depth from -15/32” to +3/16”.
