Operating Tips
•
As seed flow varies greatly between different seed
types, fill the hopper with a minimal amount of
seed, and run a trial portion of the yard to ensure
you have the desired seed output.
•
For optimal coverage, reduce the seed flow to
1/2 the desired amount and seed the entire yard
in 1 direction, then complete a second coverage
perpendicular to the first.
Power Seeding
•
Set the cutting blades 3 to 6 mm (1/8 to 1/4 inch)
into the earth (below the zero position).
•
Mow the lawn shorter than normal mowing length
before seeding.
•
Seed the lawn before prime grass growing season.
•
Give the lawn extra watering after seeding.
Power Raking/Renovating
To break new ground or till an existing lawn, set the
cutting blades 6 to 12 mm (1/4 to 1/2 inch) into the
earth (below the zero position). Allow the machine to
move at its own pace through the soil, going forward
and backward over the area to be leveled, or making
multiple passes from different directions.
