Introduction to SCH BA Aerator
The SCH BA Aerator is a pivotal tool designed to enhance your lawn's health by breaking down the surface layer, improving drainage, and facilitating better air penetration to the roots. It is particularly effective during autumn and early spring. Here's how to set up and use this aerator for optimal results.
Setup Procedure for SCH BA Aerator
Positioning the Tool Carrier
- Begin by placing the roller/tool carrier in the upright position.
Attaching the Aerator
- Insert the aerator into the two uprights of the roller/tool carrier, ensuring the points are parallel to the towbar.
- Lift the aerator up towards the towbar so that it points upwards.
Securing the Aerator
- Place one foot on the angle of the weight tray and pull the roller/tool carrier into the reverse position, which means the roller should be facing skywards.
- Hitch the roller/tool carrier securely to the tractor.
Operation Guidelines for SCH BA Aerator
- Moving the Aerator: Travel at a brisk walking pace to allow the aerator to effectively penetrate the lawn. If the unit begins to bounce, slow down immediately to prevent damage to both the lawn and the aerator.
- Optimal Use Time: Utilize the aerator in autumn and early spring. This timing allows deep penetration of the frost under the turf, which helps lift and decompress the compacted soil layers.
Maintenance Tips for SCH BA Aerator
- Post-Use Cleaning: It's important to wash the aerator after each use to remove dirt and debris that could clog or damage it.
- Regularly oil the shafts to ensure smooth operation and prolong the life of the aerator.
Important Points
- Water Ballasting: Never fill the roller more than half full of water. If deeper penetration is needed and cannot be achieved under current conditions, wait until the lawn is wetter.
Conclusion
By following these setup, use, and maintenance instructions, the SCH BA Aerator will help maintain your lawn's health and vitality by ensuring that it remains aerated and well-drained, particularly during the critical growing periods of early spring and autumn.
