Lawn Scarifier 

 
 

 

 

 

 

The CAMON LS42 Lawn Scarifier has been 
designed by Tracmaster for removing the dead 
thatch and moss from lawns and other grassed 
areas. 

The benefit of scarifying a lawn is that it allows 
air, water and nutrients to reach the roots of the 
grass whilst removing unwanted dead and foreign 
material. 

 

 

 

 

Starting the Lawn Scarifier 

This machine is operated by lifting the lever located underneath the top of the handlebar. 

It is a two-stage process.  

1.

 

Press the grey lever locking catch. 

2.

 

Press the black operating lever. 

The black lever increases the engine speed to a level that will engage the centrifugal clutch fitted to 
the engine drive shaft. 

Once the clutch has been engaged it will transfer the engine power to the rotor shaft that will rotate 
at high speeds within the chassis of the Scarifier. 

Height Adjustment 

The height of the blades of the lawn Scarifier is altered using the two large knobs at the front of the 
machine. 

The top knob is connected to the centre of the front axle via a threaded rod. Rotating the knob in 
each direction will raise or lower the front axle in relation to the main chassis of the machine and in 
turn alter the height of the blades with the chassis. 

The second knob located below the top knob on the threaded rod is used to fix the position of the 
threaded rod and consequently the height of the blades relative to the front axle.
