    check, major component failure may result. Do not operate the aerator until a mechanic has completed this process. Operating Tips Gradually engage the PTO at low engine speed and throttle up to 540 RPM before lowering the coring head. Make very gradual turns when aerating. Never make sharp turns with the PTO engaged.

Check the Right-Angle Gear Case Oil Level After every 25 hours of operation, or seasonally, whichever comes first, check the level in the right-angle gear case (Fig. 19) With the machine on a levels surface, remove the oil fill plug.
  • Page 18: Maintenance

    Maintenance Checking Stomper Assemblies Within the first five hours of initial machine operation, and after every 25 hours of operation thereafter, all stomper assemblies must be checked for excessive lateral play. This must be done or major machine component failure may result. Grasp each stomper assembly at the bottom and try to move the assembly laterally in each direction (Fig 23).
  • Page 19 Aerator Gear Case Timing Tips If disassembly of the aerator drive system is required for mainte- nance, the unit will need to be retimed to ensure n balance, equal loading of the tine arms and optimum hole quality. There are two separate procedures to properly tine the aerator gear cases.
