OPERATION
WHEN TO AERATE
------------------------------------------------------
Your Aerator should NOT be used when lawn conditions are too wet or too dry.
TO DETERMINE LAWN CONDITION:
Dig a small amount of your soil (about three inches deep).
Roll it into a small ball in the palm of your hand.
Soil appears
powdery & brittle
Your soil is
TOO DRY
----------------------
Wait until a later date
because the tines will
not penetrate properly.
Soil forms a ball
Your soil is
TOO WET
----------------------
Wait until the soil has dried.
The tines will not operate
effectively & your tractor
could loose traction,
causing lawn damage.
Soil is not
powdery & brittle
but still falls apart
Your soil is in
IDEAL
CONDITION
to begin aerating!
USE OF ADDITIONAL WEIGHT
----------------------------------------------
The weight required to give a recommended penetration of approximately
two to three inches will vary according to soil type and conditions. Concrete
blocks, patio blocks, sand bags, or any other type of weight can be added
to Aerator Tray as required. Weight can be secured by using tie downs
through holes in Tray Flanges. Tie downs are not furnished with your unit.
Usually three Concrete Blocks will be sufficient, but more or less weight
may be required.
Drive your tractor to location to be Aerated.
Lower Aerator to Operating Position.
Drive the Tractor FORWARD approximately ten feet & stop.
Observe the operation- there should be a Plug hole approximately every ten to
twelve inches and not more than three inches deep.
Add or remove weight to obtain this condition.
