CONTROLS
OPERATOR PLATFORM
The operator platform may be raised to shorten
the machine for transport or to allow use as a walk
behind unit. Flip the operator platform up and secure
with the latch. Operate the machine normally. To
lower the operator platform, lift the latch, and lower
the operator platform to the riding position.
WALK-BEHIND USE
The aerator may be operated as a walk behind unit
by raising the footplate and latching it in the stowed
position.
Walk behind mode is useful when terrain
or circumstances make operation as a ride-on
uncomfortable or even dangerous. For example
operation near a bank, above a drop-off or re-
taining wall would be places where walk-behind
mode should be used. When operating as a walk-
behind, operate across slopes, not up and down.
ROTATING TINES CAN CUT AND CRUSH
TO AVOID SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH:
-Keep hands and feet out of tine area.
-Keep covers in place.
-Stop engine before accessing tines.
