Down Pressure Kit 
Product: ProCore
® 
Aerators 
April 18, 2017 
Description: 
Optional kit that contains springs, brackets and turf guard backing plates to allow more 
pressure to be applied to the turf. Down Pressure Kit (108-6842) applies to 09200- 
240000101through 09200-260099999 only. The spring mount brackets contained in 
this kit are not required for units built in 2007 to present. The image on the left below 
depicts a 2004-2006 installation which includes the spring hangar bracket. Later models 
have welded bosses to hang the springs. There is no kit available for 2007 and newer 
machines, order 2 of Extension Spring (66-4270) and 4 of the appropriate Spring-Backing 
plates for the type of tine head in use. 
Application: 
Turf disturbance situations where insufficient plant root depth allows displacement or lifting 
of the turf. The kit installation increases the amount of down force exerted on the turf by 
the turf guards. The additional down force allows the tines to exit (separate from) the soil 
without lifting the turf. This is an optional kit to address specific turf conditions. 
To configure the machine, there are differing requirements depending on the year of 
manufacture,
