High-Output Towable Soil Management | Jrco 38 Inch Tow Behind Hooker Aerator
Rapid Turf Aeration for Compact Zero-Turn Mowers

Relying on walk-behind equipment for large-scale aeration projects forces your crew into slow, back-breaking labor that limits your daily profit potential. The Jrco 38 Inch Tow Behind Hooker Aerator provides a high-speed alternative that hitches directly to your compact mower for professional-grade results at 5 mph.
This towable rig is engineered to cover 66,000 square feet per hour, allowing you to finish massive contracts in a fraction of the time required by standard machines. The Jrco 38 Inch Tow Behind Hooker Aerator creates up to six punctures per square foot, ensuring thorough soil aeration across every acre.
Navigating around obstacles is safer than ever with the independent floating rotor heads that lift over hidden roots and rocks to prevent tine damage. While one head clears an obstruction, the other five continue their work, maintaining a consistent and professional pattern without interruption.
Maneuverability is maintained through a specialized two-point hitch and swiveling caster wheels that allow the unit to track exactly where the mower goes. This design ensures that even during tight zero-turn maneuvers, the aerator follows smoothly without dragging or tearing up the surrounding turf.
When your team needs to cross a sidewalk or move to the next property, the 12V electric actuator provides an effortless transport lift. With the flip of a switch from the driver's seat, the tine heads are raised into a safe position for high-speed travel.
Constructed with a rigid, heavy-duty frame and weighing in at a stable 210 lbs, this machine is built to endure the rigors of commercial landscaping. Equip your maintenance crew with this tow-behind powerhouse today to achieve faster completion times and superior soil health on every job site.
Why Choose The Jrco 753 Hooker Aerator?
Commercial-Grade Speed
This unit allows you to aerate over 60,000 square feet per hour, which is significantly faster than any walk-behind model on the market. This massive increase in productivity lets your crew handle more properties per day and boosts your seasonal revenue.
Advanced Damage Protection
The six floating heads independently lift when they encounter underground obstacles like rocks or thick tree roots. This intelligent design protects your tines and drive system from costly damage, keeping your equipment in the field instead of the repair shop.
Superior Maneuverability
Swiveling caster wheels and a two-point hitch system allow the unit to track perfectly behind your zero-turn mower through every corner. This tracking precision prevents the unit from dragging across the turf, ensuring a professional finish even in tight, landscaped areas.
High-Density Soil Punctures
The aerator delivers up to six holes per square foot at depths of up to 3 inches to maximize root zone aeration. These deep channels allow air, water, and fertilizer to reach the roots directly, resulting in thicker and more resilient turf for your clients.
Effortless Transport Controls
An integrated electric actuator allows the operator to lift the tine heads into a transport position directly from the seat of the mower. This feature saves valuable time during transitions and eliminates the physical strain of manually lifting heavy aeration equipment.
Compact Rig Optimization
Specifically designed for compact ZTR mowers, this tow-behind setup offers the high-production benefits of larger machines in a more maneuverable package. It is the perfect solution for contractors who need industrial-strength aeration but operate in residential or confined commercial spaces.
Rock-Solid Connection
The rigid frame and two-clevis-pin mounting system provide a secure and wobble-free attachment to the tow vehicle's hitch. This stability ensures that the unit maintains consistent ground pressure and an even aeration pattern even when operating on hilly or uneven terrain.
