MAINTENANCE

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 and 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.

MAINTENANCE:

The key to years of trouble-free service is to keep your Aerator clean and dry.

Never allow wet material to remain in Tray for extended periods of time.

Occasionally check all moving parts for free movement and, if necessary, lubricate with oil.

Should rust develop, sand lightly and then paint area with enamel.

Periodically check all fasteners for tightness.

IMPORTANT:

Apply a drop of lubricating oil to each Nylon Bearing and the Aerator Axle before each use.

To prevent rust on plugging spoons, apply a light coat of oil on the working areas of spoons after each use. Should rust appear on any other part of your Aerator, sand lightly to remove rust and coat lightly with enamel.

Plugging spoons are manufactured with special steels and are heat treated to resist wear of abrasive soil. Striking sub-surface objects can cause spoon breakage. Contact our Customer Service Department to purchase replacement Plugging Spoons (Part# B-4855-10). See “GETTING QUALITY SERVICE”.

Periodically check the spoons remove any debris which might build up and restrict their action.

After each use, service unit as described and store in a dry area, shielding tines to avoid injury.
