BM50 Verti-Cutter | Scarifier
The BM50 Verti-Cutter is a professional scarifier designed for intensive turf management where effective thatch removal and surface refinement are required. Its fixed-blade system allows worn blades to be replaced without dismantling the entire rotor and transmission, reducing downtime for contractors, golf courses and sports field managers.
Key Features and Specifications
Design and construction
- Application: Verti-cutting and scarifying of fine and sports turf.
- Blade system: Fixed blades; only worn blades need to be removed for replacement.
- Blade material: HARDOX, 3 mm thick, spaced at 30 mm (standard configuration).
- Optional blades: 2 mm and 3 mm tungsten-tipped blades available.
- High-performance rotor: Maintains consistent work quality even when cutting edges are not in optimal condition.
- Floating wheel system: Wheels supplied as standard and removable; wheel kit weight approximately 60 kg.
Model options
| Model | Number of blades | Working width | Working depth | Height | Length | Depth (with / without wheels) | Weight (with / without wheels) | Tractor power requirement |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| BM50 – 1600 | 96 | 1.60 m | 0.05 m | 0.8 m | 1.95 m | 1.4 m / 1.0 m | 250 kg / 210 kg | 25 hp tractor |
| BM50 – 1800 | 104 | 1.80 m | 0.05 m | 0.8 m | 2.15 m | 1.4 m / 1.0 m | 290 kg / 250 kg | 30 hp tractor |
Application and Usage Instructions
- Match the BM50 Verti-Cutter model to the available tractor power (minimum 25 hp for 1600, 30 hp for 1800).
- Set working depth up to 50 mm according to the thatch layer and turf species, avoiding excessive soil disturbance on fine turf.
- Select blade type (standard HARDOX or optional tungsten-tipped) based on surface conditions and desired aggressiveness.
- Use the standard wheel kit in floating mode to follow undulations and maintain consistent depth, or remove wheels where a rigid setup is preferred.
- Operate at a sensible forward speed to achieve effective verti-cutting without tearing, making overlapping passes where necessary.
- Inspect blades regularly and replace only the worn units as needed, without dismantling the rotor or transmission.
