Hi,

Is it possible to change out the cartridge on my Atco DeLuxe B17 from grass cutting to a scarifier?

Thanks.

Best regards,

Anthony

Every thing is possible with a bit of serious re-engineering, I bet that someone has done it!
However it was only the later machines designated QX (Quick Exchange ) that came with that in mind.

Strangely  some of the Atco Standards of the 1920s had the option of a “cultivator” attachment which was a fairly fearsome power driven rake . I’ve got one that came with a 24” Standard, definitely not a quick fit item and , I should think, capable of more cultivation than scarifying .
