1.1 IMPORTANT ______________________________________________________________
The Jacobsen GA450 is a PTO driven aerator. The aerator must be attached to a suitable tractor.
If you follow all instructions in this manual, you increase the life of your aerator and keep its maximum performance.
Adjustments and maintenance must always be done by an approved technician.
IMPORTANT: Do the maintenance included in this manual to make sure that the quality is kept at a high level.
This Technical MANUAL is part of the aerator and must stay with the aerator always. Suppliers of both original and
used aerators need to keep the documentation that comes with the aerator.
You must use the aerator to aerate the turf and not for any other purpose. Compliance with the conditions of operation,
service and repair specified by the manufacturer, are understood to be part of the correct use.
ALL operators MUST read through this manual and understand the Safety Instructions, operation, lubrication and
maintenance procedures.
Make sure that you obey all safety and road traffic regulations.
You must not make any changes to the aerator that the manufacturer does not approve. This type of change can
release the manufacturer from the liability for any damage or injury.
When you discard worn parts, know the environmental result and use the systems available in the country where the
aerator is used. When the aerator is at its end of life, there are guidelines in this manual for the removal of the aerator
from use.
Use only Jacobsen approved parts.
