The Add-A-Wrecker just got a big brother. Check it out
A 3-Point Aerator (Plugger) is a tractor attachment designed to promote a healthier lawn, stronger grass roots, and more productive soil. We strongly prefer a plugger to a spike aerator as it removes a plug of soil, reducing compaction which is the key to grass root expansion.
These soil plugs will break down and dissolve on their own in a few weeks.
At a glance:
- Spoon style aerator removes plugs of soil
- We prefer pluggers over spike aerators
- Independent hubs prevent tearing while turning
- Integrated weight racks for extra down-force / better penetration
- Cat 1 3-point and quick hitch compatible
- The MPG Series has double the spoons and weight of the CPG series

The key to a healthy lawn is an annual aeration. Dirt Dog’s Compact Plugger uses 3/4” hardened spoons at 6″ spacing on independently rotating and greasable hubs, on a 1 1/4″ axle to remove a soil plug allowing your lawn to breathe, hydrate, and relieve compaction. The frame can also be used as a weight rack to get maximum penetration.
There is no need to clean up the plugs as they will dissolve within a few weeks and return all those nutrients back into your soil.
Designed for Category I 3-Point Hitches and Quick Hitches, Dirt Dog’s 3-Point Aerator (Plugger) uses independent hubs along the axle to protect your turf as you turn with the plugger engaged. A plugger without this feature will tear up your turf on the inside corner of the turn.
A weight tray on top of the attachment is meant for deeper penetration of the spoon. This is beneficial for any turf, not just tough soil. Any form of weight will work, but suitcase weights can be added to your order with no additional shipping cost.
A plugger aerator is suitable for home lawns, soccer, baseball, and football fields, parks, and golf courses, and only needs to be done once a year.
All Dirt Dog Aerators are Made in the USA, down in Commerce, GA.

GWT FAST CAT QUICK HITCH OVERVIEW
Hooking up rear attachments to a 3-Pt Hitch can be a real pain, but it doesn’t have to be. A quick hitch will typically reduce your effort by 90%, and best case scenario you don’t even need to leave your seat. The more you change attachments or the heavier attachments you use, the more you’ll benefit from a quick hitch.
The unique design of the GWT Fast Cat will not just save you time, but money too compared to other quick hitches.
