Jo Beau V460

Ex-display Jo Beau V460 scarifier. The Jo Beau V460 is a professional pedestrian scarifier designed for lawn renovation, moss removal and thatch management across sports turf, commercial landscapes, estates and large domestic properties. Its innovative design positions the knife shaft in line with the wheel axle, allowing the machine to maintain a consistent working depth, even when operating on sloping ground. Powered by a Honda GX270 5.5hp petrol engine, the V460 features a 460mm working width and Jo Beau's patented Greenknives® system. Each knife can be rotated through four positions before replacement, significantly extending service life while reducing maintenance downtime. The knives are arranged in a spiral configuration to ensure smooth operation and minimise impact on the turf. Rear caster wheels provide excellent manoeuvrability, allowing the machine to turn easily around trees, borders and landscaped features without lifting the front of the machine. A foldable handlebar also makes transport and storage straightforward.

The knife shaft remains parallel to the wheel axle, ensuring a uniform working depth regardless of changes in terrain or gradients. This makes the machine particularly well suited to landscaped gardens, parks and sports surfaces where an even finish is essential. Jo Beau's patented Greenknives® system reduces maintenance time by allowing each blade to be rotated through four cutting edges before replacement, eliminating the need to dismantle the complete knife shaft during routine servicing. Combined with its compact design, robust steel construction and highly manoeuvrable rear caster wheels, the V460 is engineered for regular commercial use with minimal downtime.
