Protea SVG500 19" Scarifier & Verticutter – Petrol and Electric Turf Renovation Machine
The Protea SVG500 19" Scarifier & Verticutter is a professional turf renovation machine designed for maintaining high-quality lawns, golf greens, bowling greens, cricket pitches, sports fields, and fine turf areas. Available in both petrol-powered and electric versions, the SVG500 provides an efficient solution for removing thatch, moss, dead grass, and unwanted organic material while improving soil aeration and encouraging healthier turf growth.
With a 480mm (19 inch) working width, the Protea SVG500 is compact enough for precise turf maintenance while still providing excellent productivity for professional grounds teams, landscapers, sports clubs, and private estates. Its robust design and versatile reel system allow it to be adapted for multiple turf maintenance operations beyond basic scarifying.
The SVG500 features a durable rust-resistant aluminium body, adjustable front and rear wheels, and a reliable drive system designed for demanding turf environments. The machine can be fitted with interchangeable attachments, including scarifier, verticutting, grooming, and pin-type scarifier reels, making it a versatile multi-purpose tool for seasonal turf preparation and ongoing maintenance programmes.
The petrol model provides excellent mobility and is ideal for larger outdoor areas where access to electricity is limited, while the electric version offers a quieter, low-maintenance solution for facilities with convenient power access. Both versions deliver the precision and control required for professional turf renovation work.
