Description
This NZLA Aerator is locally made in Christchurch using quality materials and welded by an engineer.
The tines are imported from Turf Tines in Australia, and then the unit is sent locally to be sandblasted and then galvanized, followed by powder coating. This triple process means these units will not rust overtime.
Do not compare these to cheap Chinese-made aerators like the Cyclone or other kitset aerators NZ companies sell. You’re getting an aerator built to last a lifetime!
The 3-tine aerator is ideal for aerating small areas where compaction may have occurred or for aiding water percolation where soil has become repellent, causing a dry patch.
Water your lawn for 5 minutes before use; you shouldn’t have to jump up and down on the aerator. It should slide in easily, ejecting the cores with a light foot press. The tines should not block, if they are your ground is too dry.
If you’re having to jump up and down your lawn is too dry or you’re hitting stones. Fix the underlying issue first. These aerators should last a lifetime if they’re used properly.
Please note that this batch uses 16mm tines due to supply chain issues with 19mm. The supplier has advised these eject better than the 19mm, they’re just slightly smaller diameter.
