The Bobcat AE19 is a compact, walk-behind aerator designed to deliver professional-grade soil health in residential gardens and highly landscaped areas. Featuring innovative Easy-Steer technology, the AE19 allows the operator to steer and turn the machine without lifting the tines out of the ground, significantly increasing productivity and reducing physical strain. Powered by a reliable Honda® GX120 engine, it utilizes 30 hardened alloy steel coring tines to penetrate up to 70 mm deep, effectively relieving soil compaction and promoting deep root growth. Its narrow 483 mm aeration width makes it the ideal tool for navigating through standard garden gates and around complex landscaping features. For added versatility, the AE19 includes a water-fillable drum and removable weights to customize ground penetration based on soil conditions. With a toolless folding handle for compact storage and transport, the AE19 is a rugged, user-friendly solution for maintaining pristine turf in confined spaces.
