The Billy Goat AE1300HEU hydro aerator combines true 76cm (30") wide aeration with a speed up to 6.9km/h (4.3mph) to complete a 1,600 square metre area in as little as minutes! That is 59 per cent quicker than a 66cm (26" drum). Other benefits are no more lifting on turns, aerate in reverse, trim and edges with ease and significantly improve hole quantity and quality when compared to a drum aerator. This machine is powered by a Honda GX390 390cc engine.
The AE1300HEU features variable aeration density (VAD™) and creates 2-10 times more holes than drum models in one pass (8-48 holes per square foot.) This eliminates double or triple aerating with drum aerators that have fixed hole patterns as low as 4 per square foot and saves significant time. VAD also provides the ability to do patch repair and seed bed prep in one pass by simply slowing down over bare spots.
FLEXTECH™ arms act independently and are durable and forgiving for unmatched reliability. The arm's reciprocating action drives plug depths up to two times that of drums. Call backs and/or rework regardless of soil conditions are significantly reduced. "In-Ground Turning" offers unrivaled manoeuverability, fatigue-free operation and improved production plus reduces downtime and turf repair when compared to drum aerators. With only eight tines and four bolts, tine service on this unit takes 10 per cent of the time needed to service 40+, 2-bolt drum units.
The AE1300HEU hydro aerator delivers one pass aeration, using one machine and a one man crew, for a one time aeration with no call backs. That's "One & Done Aeration" that sets a whole new standard in aeration productivity!

Founded in 1967 as a subsidiary of Clipper Manufacturing, Billy Goat became independent in 1969. Today, the company is owned and operated by two generations of the Coates family. In 1974, Billy Goat moved to its current location just outside of Kansas City, Missouri, USA. Since that time, the company has expanded its facilities three times; the most recent being a 20,000 square foot addition occupied by welding and fabrication.
The company's reputation is one of durability, integrity, and innovation, not only designing for ease of use, but aggressively testing what it designs. It is not unusual to see Goats over 20 years old still in operation.
Since 1993, the company has made significant investments in benefits programmes, training, tooling and equipment, and facilities to make it more competitive in the future. Billy Goat is proud of its heritage, its people, its products, and its community. Rather than rest on its laurels, though, Billy Goat enthusiastically continues to look for ways to make cleaning up less of a chore.
