- Tighten the nut and mount the roll to the equipment.
Warning! Disconnect the power supply cable and use protective gloves.
Collection and aeration (optional)
The verticutter can be used for removing grass and moss, as well as for cutting straight
rootlets and aerating.
In order to maintain a healthy lawn in spring, area around grass roots needs to be aerated.
We recommend carrying out lawn aeration every 4-6 weeks depending on the lawn
condition.
In order to achieve the best result and the long operating life of the roll, we recommend
mowing the lawn to height shorter than 4cm before you begin working with the verticutter.
The use of the verticutter
This machine enables a combination of aeration and loosening of your lawn.
Roll replacement (Fig. 7)
Tighten the hexagonal nut (1) to the driven shaft (2).
Fasten the opposite side with the help of 2 bolts (3).
Transport
Warning! Always switch-off the engine before displacing the machine.
The verticutting roll and unit may be damaged even in a case you displace the verticutter
with the engine switched-off and on the solid ground. Avoid the roll touching the solid ground
by setting the working depth to the highest possible position.
Maintenance and storage
Disconnect the power supply cable plug from the socket before carrying out any kind of
maintenance.
Before each use of the equipment
Check the connecting cable for any signs of damage or oldness. If the cable was cracked,
cut-through or damaged in any other way, replace it.
Check the condition of the roll, knives and make sure all threaded joints were tightened
thoroughly.
If the blades were blunt, have them sharpened in a specialized service station.
