to perform application then it is suggested to do as follows:
1. Map out the area of sod required to be removed.
2. Lift the sod from the edges using a shovel sliding below at
theroots.
3. Remove the sod. Carry sod to compost or other pile turned
34
grass down to allow grass to decompose.
4. Once sod layer is removed, begin to till the soil to desired
depth.
General cultivating
Shallow cultivating less than 5cm. deep can be used to disrupt weeds
and aerate soil, without injuring nearby plant roots. It should be done
often so that weeds do not grow large and cause tangling in the tines
of the unit. The two outer tine blades can be removed from the unit to
allow a more narrow cultivating width. To remove the two outer tines:
1. Remove the battery from cultivator.
2. Remove the hitch pins from the holes on the ends of the tine
