1.2 Statement of Machine Use

The Graden Airrow Verticutter/Scarifier’s main use is as a
verticutting/scarifying/de-thatching tool on areas such as golf courses,
bowling greens, cricket wickets, tennis courts and other sporting fields
and fine turf areas.

It is not for use on turf areas where rocks and other hard foreign bodies
may be present. The use of this machine in turf profiles of this nature will
likely cause premature wear or shattering of the blade tips and could
result in rocks being projected at dangerous speeds, resulting in
potential injury to the operator or damage to the machinery.

This machine is not for use in anything other than the soil profiles
typically to be found on the sporting fields mentioned above. Any use
of this machine in any other type of surface or for any other purpose
may void the warranty.

Please contact Graden Industries if you are unsure about your
application complying with the intended use of this machine.

1.3 Serial Number Plate

The serial number plate layout is shown below. It is important to note in
particular the Model and Serial numbers to assist you when ordering
parts or discussing servicing needs with your Graden Dealer. Also on
the plate you will find mass information and the year of manufacture.
