Proper operation ensures efficient dethatching and extends the life of your equipment.

1. Attaching to Towing Vehicle: Connect the dethatcher's hitch bar to the hitch receiver of your ATV, UTV, or lawn tractor using the provided hitch pin and clip. Ensure a secure connection.
2. Adjusting Tine Engagement: Use the integrated lift handle to adjust the depth of the tines. For dethatching, lower the tines so they make contact with the ground and can effectively rake through thatch. For transport, raise the tines completely off the ground.

5. โหมดการขนส่ง: When moving the dethatcher over driveways, gravel paths, or between work areas, use the lift handle to raise the tines clear of the ground to prevent wear and damage.
