The Brinly 40" Lawn Aerator, models SAT-401BH and SAT-401BH-A, is a pull-behind attachment designed for lawn care and home applications, specifically for aerating lawns. Its primary function is to create small holes in the soil, allowing air, water, and nutrients to penetrate the grass roots more effectively, promoting healthier lawn growth. The aerator is designed to be towed behind a vehicle, such as a lawn tractor or ATV.
The aerator operates by means of eleven tines (spikes) that penetrate the ground as the unit is pulled across the lawn. The tines are made of galvanized steel, designed to resist wear from abrasive soil. The unit features an axle assembly on which the tines and spacer bearings are mounted. A weight tray is integrated into the design, allowing the user to add additional weight (up to 150 lbs) to increase tine penetration depth, which is crucial for effective aeration. The handle assembly allows the user to easily switch between transport and operating positions. In the transport position, the aerator rests on its wheels, lifting the tines off the ground to prevent damage when crossing hard surfaces like concrete or asphalt driveways. In the operating position, the tines are lowered to engage the soil.
The Brinly Lawn Aerator is designed for ease of use and effective lawn aeration.
The Brinly Lawn Aerator is largely maintenance-free, but some routine care is recommended to ensure longevity and optimal performance.
The manual also provides detailed assembly instructions with illustrations and hardware identification to facilitate the setup process. Customer service contact information is readily available for any installation questions, missing parts, or replacement part needs. Online resources, including additional information and videos, are accessible via the Brinly website or a QR code provided in the manual. The product comes with a limited warranty covering defects in material and workmanship, with specific terms for steel frame parts (3 years) and normal wear parts like tires and tines (90 days).
