Billy Goat AE403V AE403 Drum Series Core Aerator 19″ Mechanical

Description

The Billy Goat AE403V Aerator from the AE403 Drum Series sets a new standard for reliable, efficient, and low-maintenance aeration. With a 19″ (48 cm) working width, this mechanical self-propelled aerator eliminates the cumbersome centre drum design used in traditional units, reducing vibration, wear, and servicing requirements.

Engineered with outboard drive wheels, the AE403V eliminates centre wheel slip and prevents damage during ramp loading with tines engaged. The unit’s unique design positions water weight directly over the tines, improving downward pressure and aeration depth without the need for bulky steel weights.

Operators benefit from smooth tine engagement and Billy Goat’s exclusive Lift-n-Lock™ feature, which allows the tines to be raised easily by simply lifting the handle — maximising comfort and productivity. The Fold-n-Go™ handles and tilt-up service design make storage, transport, and servicing simple and convenient, saving valuable time on the job.

Powered by a durable Vanguard® 169 cc engine, the AE403V delivers dependable performance for professional landscapers, turf care contractors, and grounds teams, aerating up to 2,000 m² per hour. Built to withstand demanding daily use, it offers exceptional control, ease of handling, and consistent results across lawns, sports fields, and commercial green spaces.
