Operation
Inspecting and Cleaning the Spiker
When the spiking operation is completed, clean the machine thoroughly. Since this machine is used primarily in sand, and sand is extremely abrasive, the sand should be flushed off after each use. If the machine is cleaned frequently, (before the sand has a chance to "cake"), it can be cleaned with a stream of water from a hose with the nozzle removed.
Important: Do not use pressurized water to clean the machine; a high pressure stream could drive sand or other material into wear areas where it could act as a grinding compound.
Note: If the attachment adapter becomes stuck to the traction unit adapter, insert a prybar/screwdriver into the pry slot to disengage the parts.

Operating Tips
· Before beginning the spiking operation with the attachment, find a clear area and practice starting, stopping, raising, lowering, and spiking. This training period allows you to become familiar with the performance of the spiker.
· Maintain a straight line when spiking. Do not turn when the spiking blades are in the ground.
· Operate the traction unit at a slow, constant ground speed to achieve a uniform spiking pattern.
· When the edge of the green is reached, raise the spiker before turning or stopping. The spiker must be raised completely before making turns. Survey the green to determine if there are any obstacles that will be damaged or will result in damage to the spiker such as sprinkler heads and protruding objects.
· Adjust the ground penetration by regulating the lift/lower valve and comparing it to the spiker depth gauge.
· A Variable Orifice Kit is available for fine adjustment of the ground penetration.

Maintenance
Greasing the Attachment Adapter
If the locking lever on the attachment adapter does not pivot freely and easily, apply a light coat of grease to the area shown in Figure 6.

Adjusting the Compression Springs and Ball Joints
The springs and ball joints are adjusted at the factory. However, if new parts are installed or the components are removed for any reason, the spring and ball joint length should be adjusted as shown in Figure 7.
