Step 'N Tilt Core Lawn Aerator Version 4 Kit (4.5 Inch Extra Long Coring Tines with Soil Core Container)

Product Description

The Step 'N Tilt Lawn Aerator is very effective at alleviating soil compaction problems. Simply step on the platform to insert aerator tines into the ground and tilt the handle bar back to remove the tines from the ground - it's that effortless and easy! The Step 'N Tilt Lawn Aerator is a true core aerator, not a spike aerator. Core aeration is a proven lawn aeration method recommended by lawn experts and university extension services worldwide. Its highly engineered hollow core aerator tines are extremely effective at extracting soil cores while creating 4.5" deep, 0.79" diameter holes in the ground. The sharpen-able, replaceable, and recyclable carbon steel aerator tines are case-hardened for extra durability. The package includes a soil core removal tool. An additional bonus: The Step 'N Tilt Lawn Aerator also functions as a handtruck.

• ADJUSTABLE WRENCHES AND SCREWDRIVERS ARE REQUIRED FOR ASSEMBLY. Step ‘N Tilt is fast and easy to use. Simply step and tilt. This patented lawn aerator makes core aeration easy and enjoyable for do-it-yourselfers and professional landscapers. The tilting motion is easier on your shoulders and backs. Its larger stepping surface improves operator comfort. • Step 'N Tilt is designed for operators between 4-feet and 6-feet 5-inches tall. Recommended minimum operator weight to use one set and two sets of tines are 80lbs and 150lbs, respectively. Please begin by using one set of tines only regardless of your weight. You may use two sets of tines after you have gained enough experience and if you weigh more than 150lbs. • Please aerate one day after at least one inch of rain or irrigation. If you have a sprinkler system, each sprinkler zone will need to run for about 60 minutes. In other words, the soil must be moist to a depth of about 4 inches. Question: Why must I wait one day? Answer: Because it takes time for water to be absorbed into the soil, particularly clay soil. For use in areas with grass only; tines may clog if used in bare soil. • Step ‘N Tilt is designed for all kinds of soil, including heavy clay soil - make sure the soil is moist but not too wet. If the tines are unable to penetrate the ground and clog, the soil is too dry. The soil is too wet if the tines can penetrate the ground easily but do not produce any soil core – please wait one day before aerating again. A soil core remover is included. The aerator tines are case-hardened for extra durability. The tines may be sharpened or replaced when worn. • Step 'N Tilt is recommended for aerating small yards or areas not accessible by motorized lawn aerators. It can be used to aerate large yards but will require longer time than a motorized lawn aerator. The tines will create 4.5" deep, 0.79" diameter holes in the ground. • This unit comes with an optional soil core container. The soil core container allows you to collect soil cores during lawn aeration and deposit the cores in other areas. Its purpose is to improve the ground unevenness and repair ruts of your yard without killing the grass.
