Features

High-Productivity Aeration

The AE30S can aerate 30 inches per pass at 7.4 miles per hour. That’s more than 2 acres per hour in potential productivity.

48 Coring Tines

Achieve exceptional turf health with 48 coring tines that penetrate as deep as 5 inches, allowing nutrients and water to reach deep into the roots.

Built-In Tire Scrapers

Maintain high performance and optimal traction with built-in tire scrapers that clean tires while you work.

15 hp Kawasaki Engine

With 15 horsepower and the renowned performance of Kawasaki engines, you’ll have commanding force to conquer any challenge.

Patented Hydraulic Cooling System

Stay cool when the pressure is on. The patented hydraulic cooling system maintains optimal engine temperature for uninterrupted productivity.

Patented Automatic Chain Tensioner

Reduce the need to check chain tension. The AE30S features an automatic chain-tightening system for proper tension, better sprocket life and less overall maintenance.

Rugged Design

Bobcat aerators are built to withstand the harsh conditions you work in. The rugged design of Bobcat aerators ensures you can do your best work for years to come.

Convenient Operator Platform

The operator platform provides for smooth and comfortable operation, plus impressive visibility to complete the job with less fatigue and strain.

All Operating Controls at the Handlebar

All controls are conveniently located at the handlebar for convenient operation.

Fingertip Tine Switch and Pressure Dial

Get precise control with minimal effort. The fingertip tine control easily lifts and lowers the tines while the pressure dial sets the downward tine force.

Operator Pad and Anti-Vibration Platform

Experience smooth and comfortable operation, even when you're putting in extra hours on the job. The AE30S is cushioned for comfort with a durable pad that supports standing operators. The AE30S also features a shock-absorbing platform that minimizes ground feedback.

Narrow Profile

The AE30S can pass through gates and other access points of just 48-inches wide for easy jobsite access.

Zero-Turn Travel (Tines Up)

With the tines up, you can employ zero-turn mobility to easily navigate tight spaces and obstacles.

Patented Depth Stops

The patented depth stops limit tine penetration for accurate and consistent results.

Easy Maintenance

The operator pad and maintenance-point covers can be easily removed without tools for quick and convenient access. The AE30S also features integrated jack stands for easy access under the aerator.

Seed Spreader

Once you've completed your aeration task with the AE30S, cover the ground again to overseed with the optional seed spreader. With both aeration and overseeding capabilities, the AE30S is ideal for establishing thick, healthy turf.

Light Kit

Expand your working hours with the AE30S light kit, and tackle your aeration needs after dark or during dim, early-morning hours.
