Flail Blade Reel: Free-swinging flail blades efficiently remove matted thatch with centrifugal force. This design provides excellent thatch removal and reliability proven over nearly four decades in the demanding rental equipment environment.
Delta Blade Reel: The 12-gauge austempered steel delta blades have a unique angled position and beveled cutting edges that cut slits in the ground for dethatching, overseeding or aerating slopes and terraces. Ideal for thinning running-stem grasses like Bermuda and St. Augustine.
Spring Tines: Spring tines efficiently remove thatch from well-manicured lawns. In addition, individual BlueBird spring tines can be quickly replaced without removing the reel assembly.
Adjustable Handle: Every BlueBird power rake and seeder has an adjustable handle allowing for three different operator heights as well as folding for easy transportation and storage.
