Jrco 38-In. Hooker Aerator | Tow Behind Mower Attachment 753.JRC

How The JRCO Tow-Behind Hooker Aerator Compares To Other Aerator Options

Lawn care professionals evaluating aeration equipment usually face this question: should I get the JRCO front-mount version, this tow-behind version for compact ZTR mowers, or a basic tow-behind plug aerator?

Here's the honest comparison:

Why The JRCO Tow-Behind Hooker Aerator Is Worth The Investment

This isn't just a tow-behind aerator, it's built with the same independently floating rotor head design as JRCO's proven front-mount aerator, now packaged with a rigid frame and swiveling caster wheels that track directly behind compact ZTR mowers for extreme maneuverability.

The 753.JRC specifically addresses the needs of lawn care professionals running compact zero-turn mowers who want the terrain-adaptive floating rotor head design without needing a front-mount bar system installed on their mower.

Tracks Directly Behind The Mower For True Maneuverability. The rigid frame and swiveling caster wheels allow the aerator to track directly behind the tow vehicle, meaning it follows the tight turns of a compact ZTR mower instead of dragging wide or fighting the mower's path.

Built For High-Production Aeration

Six floating rotor heads independently lift over tree roots and rocks while the other heads continue aerating

Aerates 66,000 square feet per hour at 5 mph, matching the productivity of the front-mount version

Punctures up to six holes per square foot, with holes approximately 1/2 in. wide x 1-1/4 in. long and up to 3 in. deep

Engineered For Practical Operation

Comes complete with a two-point hitch, rigid frame, and swiveling caster wheels ready to attach and use

Quickly attaches to the Jrco hitch with two clevis pins for fast setup and removal between jobs

An electric actuator lifts the heads for transport, simplifying moving between job sites or across non-aerated areas

Real Savings

High productivity at 66,000 sq. ft./hr. reduces labor hours across commercial lawn care routes

Independently floating rotor heads reduce the downtime and skipped areas that come from obstacles stalling a fixed-gang aerator

A complete tow-behind package with hitch and frame avoids the need to buy or install a separate mount bar system

Free shipping and no sales tax through Summit Forge Supply keeps the total cost down compared to buying elsewhere and paying tax and freight separately

The Bottom Line Lawn care professionals running compact zero-turn mowers who need high-production aeration without a front-mount installation can't afford an aerator that stalls on tree roots and rocks or fights the mower's turning radius. The JRCO Tow-Behind Hooker Aerator is built with six independently floating rotor heads, a tracking frame with swivel casters, and quick clevis-pin attachment, so it delivers efficient aeration that follows a compact ZTR mower's every move. For anyone running aeration behind a zero-turn mower as a regular part of the job, this is the attachment built to keep pace.
