Description

One of the country's favourite petrol scarifiers is now back in stock at MowDirect!


The Einhell GC-SC 4240 P is one of the lowest-priced petrol scarifiers in its class - and yet it offers the build-quality and reliability you’d expect from a product that's been designed and engineered in Germany. There's even an extended two-year warranty for added peace of mind!


Suitable for lawns up to around 1500m2, the Einhell GC-SC 4240 P Scarifier has 18 hardened-steel blades, which have been specially configured to gently – but thoroughly – remove moss, thatch and flat-growing weeds; and to penetrate the soil so as to allow nutrients and moisture to be more easily absorbed.


For the best results, your lawn should be scarified every four to six weeks, preferably on a dry day; and any material pulled-out of the lawn is deposited in the included 45-litre catcher.


The Einhell GC-SC 4240 P Scarifier is equipped with a reliable and impressively powerful 212cc petrol engine, which gives you the freedom to go anywhere in your garden without having to deal with the hassle of a trailing mains cable.


Eight-stage working-height adjustment gives you the range you’ll need to get the best results in any given conditions; while a generous 40cm working-width ensures speedy large-area coverage.


The substantial wheels on the Einhell GC-SC 4240 P Petrol Lawn Scarifier make it particularly easy to manoeuvre, and have a wide tread, which prevents damage to delicate, easily marked surfaces.


Combining foldable handlebars with a collapsible canvas collector, this model will prove easy to both store and transport.

    This seems to be a good product once it was operational. The bolts supplied to fixed the handle to the body of the machine encroached too far into the grass box area, so that the metal flap could not be lifted up past the bolts. So you would either have to have the flap up (above the bolts) with the grass box attached, or down without it fixed (below the bolts) but then you cannot change over! As it happened I had some flat-headed bolts which were just long enough, so I used those instead, but that should not be necessary for a machine of this price with stated German engineering quality. As noted in other reviews, the grass box is very small so will fill up almost immediately. The assembly instructions are very poor, generally, and require additional tools to make assembly straightforward. It would be helpful if the amount of oil needed to fill the engine (0.6l) was made clearer rather than you having to look through the details in the manual or keep checking the dipstick. There is no mention of the optimum grade of oil to be used. There is also no obvious means to affix the cable pull fixing to the higher part of the handle.

    What a great little machine! I have waited a few weeks before reviewing the Einhell scarifier to see what its capabilities are and I'm not disappointed. The scarifier arrived well packaged and easily assembled. I have used it on a few different lawns and only been down to its third highest setting which takes out a lot of thatch. For the price it is a very good buy and would recommend to anyone. Einhell could save some money by not having a grassbox which is superfluous for the amount of thatch that it scrapes off the lawn. A leaf rake and a dumpbag are more use.

    After my old Bosch electric scarifier gave up the ghost, I decided I needed to step up to something more substantial for our large, uneven, sloped and mossy lawns. They are only ever mown with a mower which mulches the cuttings and drops them back on the lawn. After seeing the offer on this model, and reading the consistent reviews, I decided to go for it and placed my order. Well the next day my new scarifier arrived and after helping the delivery guy lift the box out of the van and over to my shed entrance I set about putting it together. This is quite simple and you just need to get some oil (and petrol) to get started. First time it probably needed about 8 pulls but I think this was just priming from empty. After that it has started first or second time and doesn’t need much choke. Even on the highest setting this machine lifted a vast amount of material but without leaving the lawn looking scalped or ripped up. Over 4 lawns I managed to lift 4 one tonne builders bags!! I was a little concerned about how hard it might be to push on our sloped site (the mower is powered) but actually it proved quite reasonable, especially given its weight. I’d recommend this to anyone just wanting something for your own use a few times each year – far better than any of the lightweight electric versions.

  4. Effective and Excellent Value for The Money 0 people found this helpful

    Compared with other models on the market this is not only cheaper but also stacks up well on the quality side. Out of the box there is some simple initial assembly of the handle and the need to add oil (standard 0-30W lawnmower 4-stroke) after which, a quick prime by turning over a few times and it fired up without a problem. I've now used on two very large lawns and the results have been impressive after trialling on one or two height settings. As other comments indicate, the collector bag is pointless as the volume of thatch the machine throws up would have you emptying it every few metres. Better to leave it off and resort to a rake instead. Just what you'd expect from German engineering - does the job effectively and efficiently!

    Bit early to give a detailed review but first opinions are very favourable. Delivery service superb and was easy to assemble, although needed to use a bit of guesswork for one item (I think it holds the starter cord closer to the handle). After first use, which was not at all strenuous, I was amazed at the amount of thatch, moss etc which was pulled out. First thoughts were "should I have done that?", but after a few days the lawn is looking so much better. So far very pleased and the cost will soon be recovered judging by quotes received from professional lawn care company
