Description
CMP Zero-Turn Front-Mount Dethatcher
Thatch is a layer of dead grass, roots and other small lawn debris between the top growth of your grass and the roots. Thatch acts like a barrier to your lawn, preventing essential moisture, air, and nutrients from entering your lawn’s root system.
Mounting in front of the mower also allows the extracted thatch to be mulched by the mower blades for faster decomposition, or to be collected using a sweeper.
Removing this layer (dethatching) helps your lawn’s root system prosper. If you plan to seed, dethatching is an important step that should not be overlooked before spreading. Seed will often take root in thatch rather than the soil, and will die out quickly due to insufficient access to nutrients and water.

One of the most versatile attachments for your tractor!
When selecting 50″ or 60”, think of the mowing width of your mower and size accordingly.
You’ll cover even ground roughly 20% faster with the larger dethatcher, but you want to consider hard-to-navigate spaces and maintaining ground contact over uneven territory.
We use a dethatcher on our tractor all the time and you can see us demonstrate completely clearing our trails of leaves in just two passes, dethatching our lawn, breaking apart aerated soil plugs, removing pine straw to down to the bare dirt, lightly grading our gravel drive, and more in the videos below.
