I'd go with the 36" 3PH model on a X749.
48" across is perfect but I don't want to mount it to a 3pt. I don't want to buy 1k dollar 3pt just to use this once a year. I have my larger tractor for the 3pt work but in most yards a large tractor does more damage than good. I was thinking of making my own if i just knew where a guy could buy the weighted disks with the hollow tines. I am planning on routing a set of hydraulic hoses under my 749 to make a rear remote for just these kind of things. The ryan model pictured is the one I want to emulate.

I thought all 749's had a 3PH, that was why I suggested that.

Nope just an option.

EA, any chance you will make a pull version with hydraulically operated wheels to lift the tines out of the ground? I don't like to run my big tractor across the lawn and think my X749 and a pull behind would be the ticket.

We have no plans for a pull type as of now.

I need a good aerator and agree that the 36" behind an x749 is a good way to go. I use the 3ph on my x749 frequently for lawn maintenance and try to keep my 110 and 4520 off of the lawn as much as possible. I use a pine straw rake for cleanup 72" very frequently and is one of the reasons I bought the little machine.

Be sure to get your orders in early for spring. If you want the best Aerator/Core Plugger on the market, ours are second to none!!
Our Xtreme Duty Aerators are now available in 36", 48" and 60" wide models with regular or alternating depth spoons weighing up to 1140 pounds! :shocked:

Here's a look at the alternating depth model:

What is the width of the 36" version from outside spoon to outside spoon? Also overall dimensions?

I am trying to decide between thehttp://www.everythingattachments.com/Lawn-Aerators-p/ea-xd-la-36.htm and your drum style 48" Everything Attachments Tractor 3 point hitch Core Plugger, Lawn Aerator

What are the advantages of the gang style over the drum?

This will be used on a Deere 1025r that has a lift capacity of 680 lbs 24",behind the link ends.

The one with the independent wheels will allow you to make turns. The drum style will require weight to be added to the top which will raise your center of gravity. The one with the independent wheels will has the weight built in and will keep the center of gravity lower than the other style. I have had an core aerator for over a year now and i think it has helped my yard tremendously. They also help smooth your yard. If I was going to buy an aerator for a SCUT it would be this one.

The width is approx. 31" from outside of spoon to outside of spoon.
Overall dimensions is 44" W x 36" D x 36" H
Roger gave a good explanation of gang style vs. drum. Our drum style is heavier than most because they have heavy frames and they're filled with sand at the factory.
We use the high quality, US made galvanized spoons on both styles.
Thanks for the inquiry.

Thanks Roger and Travis. So the only thing I am gaining by going to the EA gang style is the ability to turn while the aerator is on the ground?

And by going with the drum I would be gaining 10" of spoon to spoon width which would make aerating 5 acres just a little faster.

Do I have that right? Oh and the EA drum weighs 80 lbs less

Here is a freshly submitted review from Mark in PA:

"Watch the videos, I did and bought one. It arrived and I was aerating my 3 acres with 20 minutes! The quality of this unit is like nothing I have seen - I feel great that I got my money's worth and will have this workhorse for years to come. The spoons are top notch and eject the long plugs as advertised. Sure I was careful around roots and rocks but this baby is rock solid. The guys are really proud of this design and build and they should be!! They were responsive as heck through the buying process and answered my questions - these guys are not a desk and telephone internet shop - they are the real deal too. Buy with confidence!"

Core w Plugs.jpgCore w Tractor 2014.jpgI bought the 36 inch model this Fall 2014 and it is a beast that did an incredible job - I put 50 pounds on the front of my BX2360 and ran over my 2 acres of grass in no time at all - machine is well built, heavy, sturdy and cuts plugs like a charm. I am a real fan of these guys and trying to give them credit for an awesome product where I can. My soil here in Lancaster PA is really a pretty heavy brown clay and the aerator had no problem pulling up big plugs whether area was wet or dry. I did my homework and this 36 inch product was the clear winner.

That is a nice piece of equipment. Aeration really helps your lawn.

I can really tell a difference in the turf since using one on my lawn last fall.

You are correct. It left yesterday and is scheduled to be in the great state of TX on Monday!

Congrats, it's something to see. I walked outside yesterday morning and all those shiny tines glaring in the sun caught my eye. Kodak moment.....actually Samsung moment, so i couldn't resist the photo op!

Welcome to TBN. I look forward to pics of it when you get it hooked up!
