MultiCore-by-Toro/ProCore Aerators

Preparing the Tractor

1. Park the tractor on a level surface and engage the

parking brake.

2. Raise the aerator off of the ground and install the

safety stand at the rear of the aerator. (Refer to

the Aerator Operator’s Manual.) Lower the

aerator until the safety stand contacts the ground.

3. Ensure that the PTO is disengaged. Turn the

engine off and remove the key.

POTENTIAL HAZARD

• If you leave the key in the ignition switch,

someone could start the engine.

WHAT CAN HAPPEN

• Accidental starting of the engine could

seriously injure you or other bystanders.

HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD

• Remove the key from the ignition switch

before you do any maintenance.

4. If there are existing tine heads mounted on the

machine, remove the fasteners securing the tine

heads to the tine arms and remove the tine heads.

Note: The aerator must be equipped with the

proper turf guards before using the

three-tine head. Refer to the Aerator

Operator’s Manual for turf guard

requirements.

Installing Tine Heads

1. Loosely assemble the three-tine head using (4)

M10 x 50mm capscrews and lock washers

(Fig. 1).

2. Slide the tines completely into the tine head

(Fig. 1) and torque the capscrews to 35–40 ft-lb

(50–55 Nm). When installing the tines, use a

piece of wood or a metal plate to hold the tines

into place until the screws can be tightened. If

using open–sided tines, the opening should face

rearward.
