We like the scarifier's petrol engine as it delivers ample torque to the blades for consistent performance. It has 18 of these blades which are made out of a high-grade steel. Note that the machine has several useful design elements, including durable metal housing, large wheels for better manoeuvrability, and a large grass catcher bag.
