WARNING!
Beware of sharp tines. Tines continue to rotate after the motor is switched off.
Slope Operation
Slopes are major factors related to slip and fall accidents, which can result in severe injury.
Operation on all slopes requires extra caution. If you feel uneasy on a slope, do not aerate it.
• aerate across the face of slopes; never aerate slopes following an up and down traverse.
Exercise extreme caution when changing direction on a slope.
• Watch for holes, ruts, bumps, rocks or other hidden objects. These may cause an
unexpected slip or fall.
• Do not aerate on wet grass or excessively steep slopes. Poor footing could cause a slip
and fall accident.
• Do not aerate near drop offs, ditches or embankments. You could lose your footing or
balance.
Children Safety
Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to the presence of children. Children
are often attracted to the machine and the aerating activity. Never assume that children will
remain where you last saw them.
•
Keep children out of the aerating area and under the watchful care of a responsible
adult other than the operator.
•
Stay alert and turn the aerator off if a child enters the area.
•
Never let children operate the machine.
•
Use extra care when approaching blind corners, shrubs, trees or other objects that may
block your view of a child.

low-vibration and low-noise operating modes as well as wear personal protective
equipment. Take the following points into account to minimize the vibration and noise
