48" Dethacther Oct 19, 2009
By Seldomseen
I have only used the dethatcher once so far but it seems to work very well. I think the secret will be in how much weight you place on the dethatcher itself. You don't need much but a small amount seems to help. Now I just need a pull behind sweeper to pick up all the junk this thing brings to the surface.

 Agrifab tow behind dethatcher May 24, 2011
By EVERETT E. DEHART
Great little machine, does exactly what it's supposed to do.
Consider very carefully how you'll use this prior to buying. If I had I'd have purchased a different style dethatcher. Specifically, yes, it does a great job of bringing up the dead grass, etc. from your lawn and leaving it BEHIND the tractor. Now what??? You have all that ugly laying on top of your grass. OK, now it's time to hitch up the lawn sweeeper and pick it all up. So, you get to travel around your yard a second time which results in twice the gas consumed and twice the wear and tear on your tractor. If I were doing it again, I'd have purchased a front mount dethatcher for the tractor, that way, in one trip you can dethatch and sweep, or dethatch and mulch if you have a mulching deck and are so inclined. Alternately, you can get a dethatcher which mounts on the front of your lawn sweeper and also accomplish the job in one pass. Repeat, consider carefully how you'll use it.
Agrifab is a great american company, have many of their tools. Customer service can't be beat, OK, they don't have an 800 number, but they don't leave you hanging forever, and the folks you talk to are very knowledgable on their products.

Agri-Fab 48" 45-0295 Tine Tow Dethatcher May 20, 2011
By rar
This is my second purchase of this 48 inch dethatcher. I purchased the first one around 1998 and decided to buy this second one as a tandem unit to be towed behind the other one.
I am very satisfied with this manufacturer's product and Agri-Fab's service department. I broke a few tines in the old one last fall and this spring (they just got old after so many years) and ordered replacements online from Agri-Fab. Cost was very resonable and deivery time was very good.
There is considerable "bounce" of the dethatcher if towed too fast so ground speed must be kept down to eliminate this. I use two patio stones in the weight tray, secured with bungee cords, for weight on the dethatcher. This does a good job keeping the tines in contact with the lawn for dethatching.
The manual raise/lower lift arm is a good feature to have for crossing driveways, transporting, etc. This feature is not included on some other brands.

Good Product Apr 11, 2011
By Jim C
"JPC"
Assembly took about 40 min and was easy. Just follow directions to bolt it together.It works very well to dethatch the lawn. I use 2 patio blocks for weight. You need to experiment with what weight works best for your lawn.Too much pressure and you can tear out the grass and too little will not bring up the thatch.
A good product from Agri-Fab. You do need a little extra room to to store this 48 in unit. In hindsight the 40 in wide unit may have been the better choice for me. When towed behind my lawn tractor, I can't reach the lever to lift or lower the tines. This is not a big deal. I simply hop off the tractor to adjust the tines up or down when necessary.
I also have Agri-Fab's tow behind rotary spreader. I'm very satisfied with their prices and quality. Replacement parts are easily available from their website.

Great value for price Mar 29, 2011
By Becky L. Ham
Took me about 90 minutes to assemble this product. Instructions were very clear and there were no missing parts. Tried it in my yard and it works great with 2 concrete blocks for weight. I use rubber tarp straps to keep concrete blocks from moving or falling off. Would recommend this product to any do-it-yourself person for lawn care.
