RLE 240 electric lawn aerator: a lightweight power tool for smaller lawns

General

With the electric lawn scarifier STIHL RLE 240 you can scarify or comb smaller lawns with ease. Its electric motor means that you can remove moss and thatch with minimal noise and environmental impact. You decide how intensively you work your lawn. The sharp blades on the scarifying unit make cuts in the turf, allowing air, water and nutrients to penetrate down to the roots more effectively. For combing cuttings and plant trimmings from the surface of the lawn without making cuts in the turf, the spring-tines of the aerator roller are used. You can switch the two rollers with ease in just a few steps. The electric scarifier provides effective clearing thanks to its working width of 34 cm and is extremely easy to navigate because of its light weight and the easy-running wheels. The STIHL RLE 240 also has a lightweight, yet sturdy polymer housing. In addition, the foldable handlebar and carrying handle on the front side make it very easy to handle and move.
