How to Use
Raking your Lawn
Raking the lawn helps aerate the soil, prevent diseases, it
also improves surface drainage and promotes a healthier
thicker lawn.
Moss
There are several types of mosses, which can cause
problems to your lawn. Moss as well as being detrimen-
tal to the appearance of your lawn, will smother grass,
make the lawn spongy, make it difficult to mow, hold
water and encourage disease. Moss spores are released
during spring and autumn.
Thatch
Thatch is decaying organic matter that builds up on the
base of the lawn. Like moss thatch is detrimental to the
appearance of your lawn and can cause bad surface
drainage, encourage weeds, prevent air circulation and
encourage disease.

How to Use
• Do not use in wet or damp conditions. Raking in wet
conditions can damage the lawn.
• Do not force the lawnrake through long grass it
should be used on grass no longer than 75mm in
length. If the grass is long, mow the lawn prior to
using the Lawn Rake. The Lawn Rake can collect
your grass clippings while raking.
• Clear the lawn of any loose debris or stones that
may damage the lawnrake.
• On your first use choose a medium height to start
with, and then adjust the height setting to suit your
lawn and use.
• Start the lawnrake at the edge of the lawn, close to
the power point, and work away from the power
point. Once you have raked the lawn in one direction
rake again at right angles to the previous direction. (L)
• For total control of moss, use moss killer in early
spring a couple of weeks prior to using the lawnrake
• To gently remove particularly heavy areas of moss
and thatch you may have to rake over the area sev-
eral times.
• For best results use your lawnrake regularly particu-
larly at the beginning of the season to encourage
good growth and at the end of the season to prepare
the lawn for winter. The lawn should be raked in
autumn leaving some time for the lawn to thicken
and recover before winter.
• To maintain the quality of your lawnrake it is recom-
mended that you clean it after use. Refer to the sec-
tion - Caring for your Product
