Description
The Forestwest BM11133 60" Tow Behind Lawn Aerator is a heavy-duty spike aerator designed for efficient soil aeration across large lawns, acreage, paddocks and other grassed areas. Its wide ground-driven drum can be towed behind a compatible ride-on mower, ATV, quad bike or tractor without requiring an engine, PTO, hydraulics or electrical power.
With a wide 60" / 1524mm working width, the BM11133 is equipped with 126 heavy-duty 70mm spikes for high ground coverage across larger areas. As the drum rotates, the spikes penetrate the soil surface to create openings that help air, water and nutrients move into the grass root zone.
The large drum can be filled with up to 152 litres of water, adding ballast and increasing downward pressure to help the spikes penetrate firmer soil. Integrated transport wheels make it easier to move the aerator between working areas while keeping the spikes clear of driveways, concrete and other hard surfaces.

- 70mm Spike Length: Long steel spikes are designed to penetrate the soil surface during aeration.
- 152L Water-Fill Drum: Add water ballast to increase downward pressure and improve penetration in firmer ground conditions.
- Integrated Transport Wheels: Make it easier to move the aerator between working areas while protecting the spikes on hard surfaces.
- Tow Behind Operation: Suitable for compatible ride-on mowers, ATVs, quad bikes, tractors and other suitable towing vehicles.
- Heavy-Duty Steel Construction: Durable steel frame with powder-coated finish for outdoor use.
- No PTO or Engine Required: Ground-driven operation provides a simple solution for large-area lawn aeration.
The BM11133 is particularly suited to large lawns, acreage, paddocks and extensive grassed areas where its 1524mm working width can reduce the number of passes required compared with a narrower aerator. Adding water to the drum can increase operating weight when additional downward pressure is required.
For smaller properties or tighter working areas, consider the Forestwest BM11132 36" Tow Behind Lawn Aerator with a more compact 915mm working width.
