manual abstract
The thatch can soon be so dense as to prevent water, nutrients and oxygen penetrating the lawn’s root system, resistance to wear and new growth subsequently weaken. Disease and drought resistance is reduced with weeds and moss becoming dominant. Scarification not only removes harmful thatch, it also reduces the amount of moss and weeds. In addition the compacted soil surface is loosened thus enabling it to breathe and absorb water, oxygen and nutrients. Due to the thinning out achieved by scarification the grass gains increased living space and growth prospects. Treatment of the lawn during the growing season allows the grass to regenerate and spread onto thinner patches. A lawn may be scarified several times a year. Grassed areas subject to severe wear and/or regular mowing may be scarified several times, preferably during late summer. This prevents development of diseases during the winter. Thatch torn up by scarification should be raked up and removed. This treatment of the lawn will lift creeping weeds, it is therefore adviseable to mow once more, collecting the final remnants in the mower's collection box. After scarification is completed the lawn should receive a balanced lawn fertiliser. This supplies the correct nutrients required for vigorous new growth. Within three weeks the lawn should be dense, green and resistant to wear. During the period after scarification the grass is droughtsensi-tive and should be watered regularly under dryer conditions. (Every two or three days.) Lawns with large bare patches or other damage should be resown. EXPLANATION OF SYMBOL 1 SYMBOLS ON THE MACHINE , . WARNING!
