It is only advisable that you choose the same supplier for the purchase of additional accessories and a suitable lawn aerator, so that all parts are compatible with each other.
care instructions
After each use, remove dirt and debris from the blades of your lawn aerator roller. This is the only way for the product to remain intact for a long time. Although the spoons appear relatively sturdy, you should never run the roller over paved or icy ground.
