DK43 DETHATCHER KIT INSTALLATION
(OPTIONAL ACCESSORY)
The Dethatcher Kit is very effective for lifting away the excessive
matted layers of thatch that can prevent moisture, oxygen and
nutrients from penetrating the soil and can harbor disease and
insects. Use in Spring, Summer, and Fall to bring life and color
back to your lawn.

cultivating tines or other working tools and the drag stake.

to the drag stake mount and set wheel bracket aside. SEE

the unit and secure using bolts and nuts. SEE FIGURES 11 & 12

mount using the lock pin. SEE FIGURE 11 & 12

with mount bolts and nuts from unit.
