The Classen TR-20 (often called a Turf Rake or Power Rake) is a professional-grade walk-behind dethatcher designed to remove built-up thatch from grass, allowing air, water, and nutrients to reach the soil. It features a compact 20-inch working width.

​

Key Features & Specs

  • Engine: Typically powered by a reliable Honda GX160 or Kohler CH245 engine.

  • Blade System: Uses 28 heat-treated flail blades spaced 11/16-inch apart (adjustable up to 1-3/8 inches).

  • Height Adjustment: 5-position, single-action lever to easily set the dethatching depth.

  • Durability: Features greasable cast-iron bearings, sealed wheel bearings, and semi-pneumatic tires.

  • Portability: Designed with fold-down handles, making it compact enough to fit into the back of an SUV or truck.

  • Dry Weight: Approximately 215 lbs.

How to Use

Operating the TR-20 is straightforward, but it requires a bit of physical effort as the spinning tines will pull the machine forward.

  1. Preparation: Clear the lawn of any debris, rocks, or toys, and mark any buried sprinkler heads or electrical lines.

  2. Setup: Set your handle into the locked, upright position, and use the 5-position lever to lower the blades until they are just touching the soil. Setting them too deep will damage your lawn. 

  3. Execution: Engage the bail on the handle to start the blades and make your passes. You will likely pull up a massive amount of dead grass, which you will need to clean up and remove from the yard with a rake or leaf blower.
