AERATOR PRO 11 SERVICE
Lubrication
WARNING
TO AVOID SERIOUS INJURY,
DO NOT LUBRICATE OR ADJUST THE AERATOR
PRO WITH ITS ENGINE RUNNING.
REMOVE THE WIRE FROM THE SPARK PLUG.
All of the following lubrication and adjustment
procedures involve or are near rotating part and
moving parts.
Always follow all safety precautions and wear the
appropriate safety gear.
LUBRICATION
GREASE FITTINGS Every 20 Hours of Operation
Two (2) fittings, one located on each wheel hub.
AERATOR
DRIVE TRAIN COMPONENTS,
CHAIN, SPROCKETS, AND PIVOT POINTS
All bearings in the drive train are sealed and
require no further lubrication. Periodic inspection
should be done to insure that any worn bearings
are detected and replaced.
The chain has sealed rollers and requires no
lubrication. Protect chain from rust and moisture
with a very light coating of machine oil. The chain
sprockets should be cleaned of any dirt build-up to
ensure proper chain contact. Periodically inspect
the chain and sprockets for wear or damage.
Replace if necessary.
Periodically clean the entire machine of dirt,
grease and grass build-up and lubricate all pivot
points with light machine oil.
ENGINE AND GEAR REDUCTION UNIT
CHECK OIL LEVELS DAILY . Follow the engine
manufacturer's manual for intervals of oil change,
proper oil types, and fill levels for the engine and
the gear reduction unit.
Adjustments
The Aerator operates with vibration. Check and
retighten nuts and screws frequently to ensure safe
operation.
CHAIN IDLER ADJUSTMENT
The chain idler sprocket (located under the side chain
guard) can be adjusted to remove excess slack in the
chain caused by chain wear or stretch. Before
adjusting idler sprocket position, ensure that the chain
and all sprockets have been cleaned and that the
chain seats properly on the sprockets. A build-up of
dirt on the sprockets or chain can cause the chain to
become too tight. Inspect all the sprockets, bearings,
and the chain for wear or damage. With the tine reel
elevated, loosen the idler sprocket and adjust to the
proper tension setting. Chain should have a up and
down movement of 1/2" inch to 1" inch total. Take
measurement at a center point on the chain between
the front drum sprocket and the tine reel sprocket.
Retighten idler sprocket and recheck tension setting
measurement.
CLUTCH CABLE ADJUSTMENT
The clutch cable has an adjuster (located midpoint on
the cable) to increase or decrease the V-belt tension.
If the V-belt is slipping, the V-belt tension needs to be
increased. If machine will not freewheel when the
clutch is released, the V-belt tension needs to be
decreased. Before adjusting, inspect the V-belt, clutch
cable, and the clutch cable spring for damage and
wear. Replace any damaged or worn items. To adjust
the clutch cable for V-belt slippage, loosen the lock
nut on the cable adjuster and shorten the cable by
turning the adjuster one turn at a time until slippage is
corrected. Ensure that the machine will freewheel
when the clutch is released (belt guard must be on
machine). Secure adjustment by tightening lock nut
against adjuster. Test and repeat adjustment if
required. Replace V-belt if proper operation cannot be
reached with cable adjustment.
Storage
To store the Aerator over a extended period, clean all
surfaces and remove any remaining cores from the
tines. Apply a film of light machine oil to the tines to
control rust. See the lubrication directions and follow
the procedures for lubrication of drive train
components and grease fittings.
Ensure that the front drum is empty of all water. If
water freezes in the drum, damage to the drum will
occur. To avoid getting a flat spot on the front drum,
store with the front drum elevated and the removable
weight removed from the machine.
Remove fuel from gas tank and run engine until
carburetor is empty. Prepare engine in accordance
with engine manufacturer's directions.
