the removable weight in the center pocket in the top
cover on the chassis. During operation, slight downward
pressure can be applied to the handlebars to increase
tine penetration depth. Limit downward pressure so that
the front wheels remain on the ground during operation.
MAXIMUM ANGLE OF OPERATION
TO AVOID SERIOUS INJURY,
Do Not Operate the Aerator On Slopes Over 15° Degrees.
Aerator Can Tip, Roll Over, Or Roll Back Onto Operator.
Do not operate the Aerator on
slopes over 15 ° degrees. Serious
injury can occur if the operator
slips and gets feet or hands
caught in the revolving tine reel.
When operated on steep slopes
or when operated in an unsafe
manner, the Aerator can tip, roll over, or roll back on
to the operator, causing serious injury. When aerating
on minor slopes, never operate straight up or down or
across the slope. Approach a minor slope moving up
and down at a 45 ° degree angle to the slope.

OPERATING DIRECTION CONTROL HANDLE
Slowly
push the direction handle forward to engage
the forward direction.
Slowly
pull the handle back to
engage reverse direction. Fast engagement of the
direction will cause the Aerator to surge forward (or
reverse) causing the operator to loose control of the
machine. Releasing the direction control handle will
return the drive to a neutral position.
Slowly Engage The Direction Control Handle.
Fast Engagement May Cause Operator To Loose
Control Of The Aerator. Fast Engagement On
Uneven Ground Can Cause The Aerator To Tip Or
Roll Over.
The Direction Control will not act as a brake when
released. If the Direction Control is released or
disengaged when the Aerator is going up a slope, the
machine can freewheel and roll backwards towards
the operator. If the Direction Control is released or
disengaged when going down a slope, the machine
can freewheel forward.
OPERATING GROUND SPEED
Operating ground speed should be at a normal walking
speed, but can vary depending on the conditions of the
turf and work site. Vary the operating ground speed to
suit conditions. Reduce speed by the direction control
to slow down when near or next to obstacles.
Forward ground speed is controlled
by the direction control handle.
