Aerator Tine Maintenance
Tine wear costs vary greatly depending on dirt
conditions, application and scale area impacted. There are some things can keep
in mind to ensure these are performing properly and are substituted when
necessary.
Choose wisely
Spike tines, while they may stay longer, may not offer the results necessary in all soil types. Black sand soils will benefit most from spike aeration as the dirt is loose and will lightweight less as the spike runs into the soil. A key aerator tine works best inside thicker or clay-based soil by cutting out and getting rid of a plug.
Keep an eye on the particular tine
By design, tines sharpen themselves as they use. There are some things to look for to make certain the tines are carrying out properly and giving you the best-quality hole. Hollow tines could have the ends roll above or bend. When this specific occurs, the tine is not going to pull a good core or eject the plug effectively.
When replacement is necessary
There is not any real way to prevent key tines from bending and also breaking, and they cannot be effortlessly repaired. The size of the tine opening and the area the location where the tine is ejected is quite critical to the design of the particular tine and the quality in the core that you pull. Once you bend a tine, an individual ruin the correlation in the opening to the ejection interface and it must be replaced.
Since spike tines wear, they may get shorter and have an effect on aeration depth. Longer tines are more beneficial for aeration. Soutiens should be replaced when they have got worn down at least one inch.
