AERATION TIPS

Should I water before aerating?

Best aerating condition is a soft and moist ground. If you are unsure of the ground conditions, as in soil with high clay content, a simple test will determine whether it is necessary to water before aerating. Using a garden hand spade or a large screw driver, you should be able to drive the tool in the ground 2 to 3 inches with little effort. If you are unable to do so, then watering the lawn a day before aerating is necessary.

When should I use the removalole weights?

Soil conditions will dictate whether extra machine weight is needed for effective coring action. The weights are provided to give you added control, and greater tine penetration.

BEFORE YOU START

1.Make sure that engine oil is at engine manufacturer’s recommended level (refer to engine manual). Be sure gear reduction oil is at engine manufacturer’s recommended level. Make sure the machine is level when filling with oil.

2.With the folding handle in its operating position, lock the handle cam lock (Model AR19 only).

3.Rear wheel control handle must be pulled up so rear wheels are all the way down.

4.Insert weights if needed.

5.Be sure handle is properly mounted.

CAUTION: BE SURE CLUTCH CABLE IS ROUTED PROPERLY.

6.Test clutch handle to insure clutch releases freely.

7.The engine top speed is preset by the engine manufacturer. Consult the engine manufacturer’s manual for directions to adjust the governor and carburetor if speed is not within correct range.

8.AR25 Honda Engines Only: The throttle cable has been installed by the factory, however throttle spring needs to be connected to throttle/clutch control lever (see Figure 4).

AERATING

1.Start engine and adjust throttle setting to provide a comfortable walking speed and maintain control of the equipment at all times.

2.Adjust depth control knob (see Figure 1 or 2) to desired depth. Coring depth decreases by turning the knob clockwise. NOTE: by raising the rear wheels all the way up (to obtain maximum coring depth) you will reduce the unit’s stability but increase length of core.

3.Push down the rear wheel control handle to lower aerating tines into the ground (rear wheels will rise).

4.Push down on handle bar for better tine penetration and maneuverability (front wheel will rise).

5.Engage clutch control.

6.Adjust engine throttle setting, if needed, for comfortable speed.

7.To stop, release clutch control.

CAUTION: NEVER CROSS HARD OBJECTS OR SURFACES (SIDEWALKS, DRIVEWAYS, STEPPING STONES, ETC.) WITH TINES DOWN.
