E550ZR

The E550ZR is a 22” width self-propelled dethatcher. Special to this model are the counter rotating blades. This allows for improved removal of thatch and moss.

The E550ZR is equipped with Double CutTM blades resulting in 66 tiny blades spaced 5/8” from each other. This means a thorough, full cleaning that doesn`t require a cross dethatching.

Features
WHEELS WITH MUD SCRAPERS

WHEELS WITH MUD SCRAPERS

If dethatching takes place in the spring on a swampy lawn, the newly raked moss tends to stick to the wheels so that the machines move up and down when crossing the lawn, with this having a clearly visible effect on the result of the raking. To remedy, ELIET have fitted scrapers to the wheels of its professional dethatching machines. Any dirt that sticks to the wheels is immediately removed from the wheels.

Blades rotate in the opposite direction

Blades rotate in the opposite direction

This traction allowed ELIET to rotate the blades in the opposite direction to the direction of travel, without loss of operator comfort or control. The contra-rotation results in improved removal and collection of material which is pulled out and thrown onto the collectiong auger increasing the efficiency of dethatching by 30%. 

The extremely fine blades have the Permanently Sharp BladesTM technology that ensures minimum damage to the turf.

Anti-vibration height-adjustable handle bars

Anti-vibration height-adjustable handle bars

The handle is adjustable in height and equipped with vibration dampers. All the controls are centrally located on the handle.

Due to a very good weight balance, the E550ZR is easy to maneuver. Even small turns in small gardens is very easy.

INFINITELY VARIABLE HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT

INFINITELY VARIABLE HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT

The working depth is typically 2 mm. At this speed, virtually no braking is applied to the blades so that they can operate at full speed and lift up moss and thatch from the lawn surface. As the blades do not cut through the roots, this greatly reduces the time required by the lawn to recover after dethatching. Accurate and correct depth setting implies a very fine adjustable depth adjustment. To this end, the front wheels of the E550ZR feature an infinitely variable adjustment. This enables the same depth to be set across the entire blade shaft.

Self-propelled

Self-propelled

No more pushing: the E550ZR is self propelled! The powerful Honda GX200 6.5hp gas engine moves at a steady pace independent of the terrain.

The traction-propelling is a large 6” rubber roll which, at the same time will level the ground.
