SAFETY AND OPERATION DECALS

Operating Instructions

This decal can be found on top of the handlebar

assembly. It tells the operator the steps involved; prior

to aerating; loading and transporting and how to aerate.

Warning Hands In Moving Components

This decal is located on the main frame and provides

the operator with three message warnings.

(1) The symbol on the left shows the possible result of

working on machinery with safety shields removed.

Hands and fingers may become entangled in belts. DO

NOT operate the unit without safety shields in place.

(2) The center symbol warns the operator and/or

bystanders to keep hands out of moving components.

(3) The right symbol instructs the operator to read the

service section of the operators manual. Disable spark

plug wire before performing any service or maintenance

on the unit.

Engine Oil Level

This decal is located on the main frame, in front of the

engine. It tells the operator to have the engine level

prior to checking the oil level.

Danger Hands And Feet

This decal is located on the main frame and informs the

operator of areas which are capable of serious injury.

The symbol shows fingers being cut or severed. DO

NOT place hands, feet, fingers or toes under aerator

while operating the unit.

Handle Warning-Lawnaire IV Only

This decal is located on the lower end of the handlebars.

It informs the operator that the folding handlebars need

to be securely locked in place prior to aerating.

Throttle Control

This decal is located on the handlebar next to the

engine throttle control. It tells the operator which

direction to move the engine throttle for the desired

engine speed. The throttle control decal uses the turtle

to represent slower engine speeds, and the rabbit to

represent faster engine speeds.

ASSEMBLY/SET-UP INSTRUCTIONS

GENERAL NOTE: FRONT, REAR, RIGHT HAND AND LEFT HAND REFERENCES BELOW

ARE WITH RESPECT TO AN OPERATOR AT THE CONTROLS.

UNPACKING - Unpacking the aerator entails

securing the handle and rolling the unit off the

shipping pallet.

1. Cut the banding securing the aerator to the

pallet

Banding is under tension and may snap back

when cut. Wear eye protection and stay clear

when cutting the band.

2. Unfold handle by pulling on the transport lift

handle A.

FOR LAWNAIRE V MODELS

1. Bolt the handle Bin place, as shown.

2. Pull up on the transport lift handle Cto raise the

aerator to the transport position.

3. Carefully roll the unit off the pallet.

over the handle bracket Eand tighten. HAND

TIGHTEN ONLY!.

2. Pull up on the transport lift handle Cto raise the

aerator to the transport position.

3. Carefully roll the unit off the pallet.

NOTE: If the folding handle will not be used, bolt the

IV & V

ASSEMBLY/SET-UP INSTRUCTIONS

CHECKING THE THROTTLE CABLE- The throttle cable is adjusted prior to shipping; however, it should be

checked before the unit is put into service. The throttle control should freely move in a full range of

motion forward and backward. If necessary, the throttle cable can be adjusted as follows:

FOR BRIGGS AND STRATTON ENGINES:

1. Loosen the throttle friction wing nut Fto allow

free movement of the throttle control G.

2. Loosen the casing clamp screw Hon the control

plate.

3. Push throttle lever all the way forward.

4. Push throttle cable sleeve Jup through cable

clamp until fully advanced.

5. Tighten the casing clamp screw H.

FOR HONDA ENGINES:

1. Loosen the throttle lever friction nut Kenough to

allow free movement of the throttle lever L.

2. Loosen throttle cable clamp M.

3. Push throttle lever all the way forward.

4. Push throttle cable sleeve Nup through cable

clamp until fully advanced.

5. Tighten the casing clamp screw M.

INITIAL BELT SEATING AND ADJUSTMENT

Proper tensioning of V-belts is the single most

important factor necesssary for long, satisfactory

operation. Too little tension will result in

slippage, causing rapid belt and pulley wear.

Too much tension can result in excessive stress

on belts, bearings, shafts, reduced efficiency

and operator fatigue due to excessive force

required to hold the bail closed.

1. Operate the drive a few minutes to seat the belts

in the sheave grooves. Observe the operation of

the drive under its highest load condition (usually

starting).

2. Check the tension on a new drive serveral times

during the first 2 hours of opertion.

3. Keep the drive free of foreign material which

might cause slippage or damage to the belt and

sheave surfaces.

4. If a V-belt slips, it is too loose. NEVER apply belt

dressing, as this will damage the belt and cause

early failure.

5. Make sure pulleys stay in proper alignment.

Misaligned pulleys can result in belt rolling in the

pulley groove causing belt damage or breakage.

CONTROLS

HANDLE CONTROLS

Transport Lift Handle A - Pushing down on the

handle lowers the tines for aerating. Pulling the

handle up raises the tines so the aerator can be

moved or transported without incurring damage

to the unit or the turf.

Clutch Control Handle (Bail) B - Engages the belt

tightener clutch. Pulling back on the handle

engages the clutch; releasing the handle

disengages the clutch.

Releasing the clutch on an incline will cause

freewheeling, which will allow the unit to roll

down the incline.

Throttle Control C - The throttle control, located on

the handle, adjusts the engine speed. Pushing

the control forward increases the speed; pulling

the control back reduces the speed.
