Al C. 1,428 #1 Posted April 22, 2023 Hitched the Brinley aerator to the old Wheel Horse yesterday. Used about 120lbs of bagged gravel to weigh things down. The lawn had just enough moisture - the plugs sank in the ground the full length and the dirt didn’t cake on the tires. Thing don’t always workout this well. Usually the lawn is too wet and it creates a muddy mess, or the ground is as hard as a rock and the plugs barely break the surface of the lawn. I have to say, the power of the 16hp K341 engine is exceptional. Purrs like a kitten and never struggles with whatever I throw at it. 4 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
