Operating Instructions:
1. Before hitching to your Tebben Aerator, make sure your unit is in an upright
and level position.
2. Once you have established your aerator is in an upright and level position,
proceed to back the tractor up until the lower link arms are aligned with the
lower 3 PT pins on the aerator.
3. Attach the upper link (turnbuckle) to the upper 3 PT pin on the aerator.
4. Once the Aerator is attached and fully secured, proceed to raise unit upward to
remove weight from resting stands. Adjust resting stands to their upward position.
5. Lower the Aerator down to the ground with the tines at full depth penetration.
6. Operate the tractor at speeds which are safe and comfortable for the operator.
7. The Aerator must be lifted out of the ground when making sharp turns.
8. Compacted areas may need to be aerated several times to achieve adequate
aeration.
9. When not in use, remove the leg pins, extend the legs to the downward position,
reinsert the leg pins. Always use the legs for safe storage of your Aerator.
Adding weight to weight box:
1. When adding weight to the weight box, do not over weight as this
could result in loss of front steering ability.
2. On three point models, front counter balance may be required in extreme cases.
