• ความคล่องตัว: The machine is designed for easy pushing. The front wheels are 6.7 inches and rear wheels are 3.15 inches, aiding in smooth movement across the lawn.
• Working Pattern: Work in straight, overlapping lines, similar to mowing. Avoid sudden turns or twisting the machine.
• กระเป๋าเก็บ: The collection bag will fill quickly, especially during heavy dethatching. Monitor its fill level and empty it frequently to maintain performance. For very thick thatch, it may be more efficient to remove the bag and rake up the debris manually after dethatching.
• หลีกเลี่ยงการโอเวอร์โหลด: Do not force the machine through dense areas. If the motor slows significantly, raise the working depth or reduce your pace.
• ช่องระบายความร้อน: Regularly check and clear the cooling vents on the motor cover to prevent overheating.

• Cylinder Inspection: Inspect the scarifier and aerator cylinders for wear or damage. Replace dull or bent blades/tines to maintain effectiveness. Ensure the cylinder is securely mounted and the square drive connection is not worn.
• การหล่อลื่น: Periodically apply a light lubricant to moving parts, such as the height adjustment mechanism and cylinder mounting points, to ensure smooth operation.
