Safety Instructions – Pre-Operation
5.1
Basic Safety Instructions
Before starting the machine, read and understand these operating instructions.
5.2
Main Components and Operating Elements
Below is a description of the main components of the LA25 Aerator and how they
operate.
5.3 Engine and Drive
The Honda GX160 is a four stroke engine that runs on
standard unleaded fuel.
The engine is air cooled and therefore it is important
that the grille covering the recoil rope is kept clear from
debris.
The engine air filter cleans the air sucked in by the
engine. A clogged air filter will reduce performance.
The engine is fitted with a fuel on/off lever and a choke lever. Read the engine
operating instructions to understand the operation of these levers.
5.4
Operating Lever
The LA25 Aerator tines are engaged by using the lever located underneath the top
of the handlebar.
PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS A TWO STAGE LEVER. THE GREY BUTTON MUST BE
DEPRESSED BEFORE THE MAIN LEVER CAN BE PULLED UP.
Once the drive has been engaged it will transfer the engine power through a
gearbox, to the tine rods that will rotate. The surface penetrating tines are held at
the end of each tine rod and will be pushed into the ground before being withdrawn
as the tine rods rotate.
5.5 Height Adjustment
The depth of the tine penetration of LA25 Aerator is altered by changing the
position of the back axles.
Each back axle has three holes by which it can be attached to the main chassis
frame.
