ELIET DZC 450 Overseeder

With an Eliet overseeder, you can renovate a tired and thin lawn in no time at all by adding new grass.

This inexpensive alternative can, moreover, take place quickly and guarantees a visible result in less than a month. The lawn will be available for normal use immediately after overseeding which is extremely beneficial to many users including sports fields.

Every Eliet overseeder machine is equipped as standard with Permanently Sharp Blades™. The blades are self-sharpening, thanks to ELIET’s revolutionary concept, so that they retain their sharp cutting edge during their entire working life. Because these knives always stay sharp you can keep on using them until they are completely worn down. Our unique ELIET knives have a 100-hour knife life.

Smaller than the DZC 600, the DZC 450 machine makes overseeding more accessible. With a usable width of 45 cm, the DZC450 has dimensions that make it perfect for use in most contemporary gardens

Description

Blades

On this ELIET machine, the heavy work is performed by the 45 reel blades underneath the machine. Especially hardened blades cut slits underneath the lawn at 10-15 mm spacings. The blades rotate in reverse so that the soil, thatch, moss and grass are lifted from the lawn. This method guarantees cleaner slits that are more suitable for receiving and retaining the grass seed. The ideal blade thickness for overseeding is 3 mm.

Efficiency

The rejuvenation of a lawn is easy to quantify, the travel speed is constant thanks to the powered wheels and the seed flow can be precisely set. The rejuvenating effect of overseeding treatment can be seen within 14 days provided rainfall is sufficient.

Ease of use

Overseeding is a very efficient method for treating lawns. Work can begin after clearing up following an intensive aeration process. The DZC 450 is very easy to operate. Although the overseeder has a working width of 450 mm, it remains very compact in size and easy to operate thanks to its powered roller. All operating controls are mounted on the handlebars, such as blade engagement, drive controls, seed distribution switches, lowering to working depth etc.

Innovative overseeding technology

Since the new grass seed is inserted between existing vegetation when overseeding, it is essential for the success of the treatment that the seed can germinate as soon as possible and that growth opportunities are maximised. The patented operating principle of the DZC450 ensures ideal conditions for the introduction of seed:

Cutting open the soil

The cutting blades at the front of the machine cut open 8 mm (0.31″) deep grooves in the soil of the lawn in preparation for the grass seed.

Removal of excess soil

The blades rotate over the top and cast the soil in an arch to the rear of the machine so that it does not fall into the newly cut grooves.

Precision sowing

A clever and compact seed distribution system, Helix Seed DuctTM, carries the seed under the projected excess soil into small funnels leading to discharge channels precisely located above the clean grooves.

Injection

A small air pressure generator blows air through the seed funnels so the seed is blown while it is being distributed. This helps the seed to settle faster and with more precision in the grooves.

Rollers

The powered rubber roller immediately follows the seed distribution process and ensures that there is good contact between the soil and the seeds by pressing the earth down.

Covering the seed

The flow of projected excess earth falls just behind the roller on the sown area. The earth covers the seedbed and provides a protective layer for the seed, increasing the chances of germination and growth.
