Land Pride welcomes you to the growing family of new
product owners. This Core Aerator has been designed
with care and built by skilled workers using quality
materials. Proper assembly, maintenance, and safe
operating practices will help you get years of satisfactory
use from this implement.
Application
The Land Pride CA15 Series Core Aerators come in 48",
56", 64" and 72" working widths. They are designed to
attach to the tractor’s 3-Point Category 0, 1 and 1 limited
hitches and are compatible with Land Pride’s QH05 and
QH15 Quick Hitches. They should be attached to tractors
capable of lifting, lowering, and transporting weight up to
750 lbs. on the three-point hitch.
The CA15 Series Core Aerators are designed to relieve
soil compaction and allow air circulation in grassy
surfaces such as lawns, soccer fields, football fields,
baseball fields, municipal parks, and golf course
fairways. They utilize replaceable hardened spring steel
spoons mounted on rotating discs. These spoons pull
cores up to 3" in length from the soil profile every 6 3/16"
of forward travel. The gangs are spaced laterally apart
between 4 1/4" and 4 5/8" with 5 1/2" to 6 1/4" spacing at
the rotary support hangers. Pulled cores are deposited
on the surface for subsequent drying, pulverization, or
removal. Weight can be added to the weight tray to help
achieve maximum spoon penetration.
When your turf begins to suffer the effects of compaction
and wear, such as shallow root zones, thatch build-up,
worn pathways, rock hard ground, poor surface
percolation, or water stands, a Land Pride CA15 Series
Core Aerator will provide immediate seasonal relief.
