Operation

adjusted to deliver the desired down pressure and roller action and achieve the desired seedbed appear- ance.

When the situation permits, making a second pass 90- degrees to the first is an effective way for the roller pins to penetrate areas where uneven soil conditions exist.

In extremely compacted soil conditions, add extra weight to the renovator to help the roller pins penetrate the turf and soil sufficiently.

Operation

The power for operating the renovator comes from con- tact between the renovator rollers and the turf.

Know how to stop the tractor and renovator quickly in an emergency.

Survey the area to be worked and remove any obstruc- tions that may affect the performance of the equipment.

Tractor Stability

„A minimum 20% of tractor and equipment weight must be on the tractor front wheels when attachments are in transport position. Without this weight, front tractor wheels could raise up result- ing in loss of steering. The weight may be attained with front wheel weights, ballast in tires or front tractor weights. Weigh the tractor and equipment. Do not estimate.
