2.0 What the Machine is Designed For
2.1 Applicaons
The CAMON LA25 Lawn Aerator has been designed by Tracmaster for aerang grass
lawns and other grass areas.
The benet of aerang a lawn is that it allows air, water and nutrients to reach the
roots of the grass, relieves soil compacon, and removes unwanted sub-surface
thatch.
The nes of the CAMON LA25 Lawn Aerator are designed to be used only on grassed
areas where the surface soil is more than 10cm in depth.
Prior to operaon of the LA25, the operator MUST test the depth of the soil. This
can be done simply with a garden fork.
DO NOT use the CAMON LA25 Lawn Aerator for any alternave use other than
aerang grass areas.
Operang the machine on non-grass surfaces such as concrete or tarmac will cause
damage to the LA25 Lawn Aerator.
Aer aerang DO NOT expose the lawn to high temperatures or drought.
Irrigate the lawn if necessary to ensure that the grass benets from its treatment.

5.0 SafetyInstrucons–Pre-Operaon
5.1 BasicSafetyInstrucons
Before starng the machine, read and understand these operang instrucons.
5.2 MainComponentsandOperangElements
Below is a descripon of the main components of the LA25 Aerator and how they
operate.
5.3 Engine and Drive
The Honda GX160 (Fig. 1) is a four stroke engine that
runs on standard unleaded fuel.
The engine is air cooled and therefore it is important
that the grille covering the recoil rope is kept clear from
debris.
The engine air lter cleans the air sucked in by the
engine. A clogged air lter will reduce performance.
The engine is ed with a fuel on/o lever and a choke lever. Read the engine
operang instrucons to understand the operaon of these levers.
5.4 OperangLever
The LA25 Aerator nes are engaged by using the lever located underneath the top
of the handlebar (Fig. 2).
PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS A TWO STAGE LEVER. THE GREY BUTTON MUST BE
DEPRESSED BEFORE THE MAIN LEVER CAN BE PULLED UP.
Once the drive has been engaged it will
transfer the engine power through a gearbox,
to the ne rods that will rotate. The surface
penetrang nes are held at the end of each
ne rod and will be pushed into the ground
before being withdrawn as the ne rods
rotate.
5.5 Height Adjustment
The depth of the ne penetraon of LA25 Aerator is altered by changing the
posion of the back axles.
Each back axle has three holes by which it can be aached to the main chassis
frame.
Aaching the axles using the lowest posion holes has the eect of moving the
nes closer to the ground and increasing the depth that the aerator will penetrate.
Fig. 1
Fig. 2

CAMON LA25 Lawn Aerator
LA25 Lawn Aerator Page 7
The two alternave posioning holes raise the
height of the nes away from the ground and
decrease the depth the nes will penetrate.
Moving from the lowest hole to the middle hole
and to the highest will decrease the depth of the
nes by 10mm each step.
5.6 Tines
Four nes of the same type must be ed at all
mes for the LA25 operator to funcon correctly.
Each ne must be threaded and secured ghtly
into the ne holder rods. Each ne must be ed with
a washer and spring washer to ensure the ne can be
ghtened suciently into the ne rod (Fig. 4).
Use a 17mm spanner to ghten the nes in place.
We recommend checking the ghtness of the nes at
intervals during operaon.
5.7 Solid Spiking Tines & Hollow Coring Tines
The LA25 Aerator is supplied with a set of both 10mm
solid spikes and hollow corer nes (Fig. 5). You must
always use four of the same nes when seng up and
operang the Aerator.
Solid nes help nutrients to reach soil roots and improve drainage.
Hollow nes, in addion to the benets listed for solid nes,
reduce surface compacon by removing a secon of the soil each
me a ne is punched into the soil.
5.8 Commissioning
Prior to operaon it is necessary to check the engine oil level and,
if required, add engine oil to the levels indicated in the table in
secon 6.1.
The engine fuel tank will not contain fuel so will need lling to
the recommended level before use. See engine manual for more
informaon.
5.9 GeneralSafetyInstrucons
Be aware of all the safety requirements for the machine.
Visually check the machine for operaonal safety, complete components and xed
guarding prior to each use.

6.2 To Stop the Engine
Release the operang lever.
Switch the engine ON/OFF switch to the “O” OFF posion.
Turn the fuel tap lever to the OFF posion.
Ensure the nes have stopped prior to moving the machine.
WARNING:THEEXHAUSTCOVERMAYBEHOT–DONOTTOUCH.
6.3 SafetyEquipment
The LA25 operator must be wearing:
• Ear Defenders
• Gloves
• Protecve Footwear
• Safety Glasses
6.4 Operaon
Before aerang can be carried out the grass must be cut short and be cleared of any
objects such as stones or scks that would damage the Aerator.
WARNING: AERATING LONG GRASS WILL QUICKLY CAUSE DAMAGE TO
COMPONENTS OF THE MACHINE. WE RECOMMEND THE GRASS IS CUT
PRIOR TO AERATING.
Do not operate the Aerator on wet lawns or in wet weather.
Hollow nes should only be used on moist ground condions.
Hardcore or rubble located under the surface of the turf will cause damage to the
machine.
Use a garden fork to test the depth of the turf. The fork must
enter the ground up to 100mm in depth to avoid damage to
the nes or corers.
When safety checks have been completed, start the engine
following the correct procedure.

LEVER. THE GREY BUTTON MUST BE
DEPRESSED BEFORE THE MAIN LEVER
CAN BE PULLED UP.
Push the the ne control lever (Fig. 8),
forward to lower the ne liing board.
This will allow the rotang ne rods to fall to a vercal posion where the nes will
be penetrang the ground.
As the nes begin to penetrate the ground they will start to propel the Aerator
forwards.
DURING OPERATION OF THE LA25 AERATOR APPLY A SMALL PULLING PRESSURE ON
THE HANDLEBAR AS THIS WILL ENSURE THAT THE TINES AND TINE RODS REMAIN
IN A VERTICAL POSITION. THE TINES MUST BE VERTICAL FOR MAXIMUM AERATING
DEPTHS AND EFFICIENT PROPULSION TO BE ACHIEVED.
Do not work the Aerator on slopes of more than 20 degrees. Always work across the
slope, not up and down it.
6.5 ProcedureforUnexpectedShutDown
Release the operang lever.
Turn the engine operang switch located on the handlebars to the OFF posion.
Ensure the nes have stopped prior to moving the machine.
6.6 Residual Risks of the LA25 Aerator
The LA25 Aerator is designed to be pushed by the operator during transportaon
and whilst it propels itself during operaon it does not have a driven axle. It has no
brake system and therefore the operator must hold rmly onto the machine at all
mes when the machine is on sloped areas.

8.0 Transportaon,StorageandHandling
8.1 Transportaon
Use ramps where possible to manoeuvre the Aerator into a transportaon vehicle.
The LA25 Aerator must be xed securely using straps and by placing chocks behind
the wheels.
Always transport the LA25 Aerator horizontally and not lted at an angle.
Ensure that the fuel control lever on the engine is moved into the OFF posion so
fuel does not leak into the carburetor during transportaon.
8.2 Storage
Always allow the engine to cool down prior to storage.
Always clean the machine and dry thoroughly prior to storage and ensure all
lubricaon points have been re-greased.
For periods of long storage, change the engine oil.
Either drain the fuel completely or ll the fuel tank and add fuel stabilizer.
Do not store the Aerator in wet rooms, where ferliser is stored, or in stables as
heavy corrosion may occur.
Always store the machine in a horizontal posion.
