Matev grass harrow · compact tractor attachment
Lift moss, thatch and old clippings out of the turf.
The Matev SCA-M 130 spring-tine grass harrow gives professional grounds teams a mechanical way to comb unwanted material to the surface, open the sward and prepare it for mowing or collection.
What are you trying to improve?
Use the harrow when the problem is sitting in the turf surface.
A grass harrow is most useful where dead material, moss and old clippings have accumulated around the base of the grass. The spring tines comb that material upwards so it can be collected, while disturbing the surface enough to improve air and water movement around the sward.
Moss & turf thatch
Work accumulated organic material out of the sward before it forms a dense layer that holds moisture at the surface.

Match the working width to the mowing system and bring loosened material into a normal grass-maintenance pass.
See Matev rotary mowers →Remove the material
For a cleaner result, pair the maintenance operation with a collection system so moss, thatch and cuttings are taken off the surface.

Matev SCA-M 130 — one base machine, three useful working widths.
Start at 130 cm and add extension kits as the tractor and mowing width increase. That lets the harrow stay closely matched to the rest of the grass-maintenance setup instead of forcing every site into one fixed width.
SCA-M 130 series
130 cm tractor-mounted spring-tine harrow
Forty-four spring tines work through the turf surface to lift moss, thatch and cuttings. Height is adjusted at the support wheels, while Cat. 0 and Cat. 1 mounting options allow the unit to be matched to a range of compact tractors and tool carriers.
- Simple wheel-based height adjustment helps set the working intensity.
- Heavy-duty caster wheels follow the surface rather than forcing the frame into every contour.
- Extension kits allow the harrow width to grow with the mowing deck or tractor.
- Designed to bring unwanted material to the surface ready for mowing or collection.
Choose the working width
Match the harrow to the tractor, mower and amount of ground.
Base SCA-M 130
The most compact setup for smaller compact tractors, tighter access and sites where manoeuvrability matters more than maximum pass width.
One extension kit
A useful middle ground where a wider mowing deck or larger open lawn makes the standard 130 cm width feel unnecessarily slow.
Two extension kits
Maximum published working width for larger open amenity areas and tractor setups where wider coverage is the priority.
Mounting & width accessories
Build the harrow around the tractor you already operate.
The base harrow is only part of the installation. Choose the correct linkage bracket and add width extensions where required.
150 / 170 cm extension kit
Add one kit to increase the working width to 150 cm, or two to reach the published 170 cm maximum.
Cat. 0 linkage bracket
For compatible compact-tractor Cat. 0 installations. Confirm tractor geometry before ordering.
Cat. 1 linkage bracket
Cat. 1 bracket option for larger compatible compact tractors; supplied without the triangle.
What the harrow changes
The aim is a cleaner, more open turf surface — not simply scratching the lawn.
Spring-tine harrowing is a surface-management operation. It helps expose accumulated organic material, improves access for water and air at the turf surface and prepares loosened debris for removal.
Bring fibrous material and moss to the surface rather than leaving it trapped around the grass crowns.
Reducing the surface mat helps rain and irrigation move into the sward more evenly.
Use physical turf management where the issue is accumulated material rather than relying on a treatment to hide the symptom.
Once material is combed out, mowing and collection can remove it from the maintenance cycle instead of leaving it to decompose in place.
Build a complete grass-care pass
Harrowing is strongest when the loosened material has somewhere to go.
For professional sites, think about the whole operation rather than the attachment in isolation. The goal is to disturb the unwanted layer, cut the grass appropriately and remove the material where collection is required.
Use the SCA-M 130 spring tines to lift moss, thatch and old cuttings into the working zone.
Pair with a suitable Matev mowing system to leave the desired grass height and help move loosened debris.
Where site standards require a clean finish, use the Matev collection route to remove the combed-out material.
Before ordering
Grass harrow questions
Is a grass harrow the same as a scarifier or aerator?
No. The SCA-M 130 uses spring tines to comb and loosen the turf surface, lifting moss, thatch and clippings. It is not a substitute for deep soil aeration where the problem is compaction lower in the soil profile.
Which working width should I choose?
Start with tractor size, linkage and the width of the mowing system. The base machine works at 130 cm; extension kits allow 150 cm and 170 cm configurations for wider setups.
Can I use the harrow with a mower and collector?
Yes. Matev specifically positions the lawn harrow as part of a combined grass-care system, with mowing and collection allowing loosened moss, thatch and clippings to be removed in the same maintenance workflow.
Will it remove all moss in one pass?
Results depend on the amount of material, turf condition, tine setting, moisture and travel speed. Heavier accumulations may need a staged approach rather than an excessively aggressive single pass.
How do I know which mounting bracket I need?
The SCA-M 130 has Cat. 0 and Cat. 1 mounting routes. Send Kersten the tractor make, model and existing linkage details and the correct setup can be confirmed before ordering.
