Questions & Answers

When crossing a driveway, does the obstacle lift up?

There is a manual lever you would need to use to lift it up to cross the driveway, then manually release it once you have gotten to your destination.

Do you know anyone who has experimented with this on an Agrifab sweeper? Drumming up leaves and catching them with Sweepers would be effective as well, assuming they are wet. ?

Once I have made sure I have all the parts in place, this attachment works well with the main unit.

What happens when this is plugged in and how does it hook up?

This is something you have to do. It is the Agri-Food industry This is the 45th Fab- I am using the SmartLink Master Platform 0473. To the master platform, it can be attached

Does anyone add weight to the Dethatcher while using it? If so, what is the extra amount?

It is required that the master platform, model 45-100, is used for this dethatcher One hundred and seventy five pounds of weight can be supported by the platform. According to the conditions of the ground, the amount of weight used will differ.

It does its job well and is sturdy, I highly recommend it
5/5

As a result of the heavy buildup of thatch that had taken place over the years, my Bermuda grass had a number of dead looking spots. Both of these products can be purchased through Agri-Direct With Fab SmartLink Master Platform, the thatch was loosen up well. The main thing that I found to make the best use of this was to weight it down with some existing cinder blocks that we already had. My knowledge of other reviews led me to believe it would likely be necessary since I had already read other reviews. It will take me some time to purchase a lawn sweeper, but I will do it This is definitely the way to go if you have a lot of thatch or a large yard, since it will save you a lot of time once it is The assembly and changing out of attachments were straightforward. As well as the aerator, we purchased this. It was easy for me to assemble and change attachments since I am a female. There is a reasonable degree of durability to the product. In order to experiment with how much weight worked best in our situation, I put pretty heavy weight on it. A pasture (5 acres) I just seeded was also lightly covered by seed I oversown in parts of the yard and on the pasture. During the summer, we used this a lot and it has held up and worked fine. As a whole, I believe that this was a good purchase. In a year when we had record temperatures in the 80s, our Bermuda lawn grew thick and full.

My mind is blown
5/5

A dethatcher is the first time I've ever used one and I was immediately impressed by how well it worked. The Agri-Eel system made me realize how matted my yard had been before I used it Dethatcher on a fab scale. My tractor tires were slipping, and when I checked my dethatcher, I found a ball of matted thatch in every prong. By just sliding off, the cover can be removed easily. As I examined these balls I was amazed to see that they were nothing but dead grass and leaves that I hadn't yet removed. I really liked the attachment.

For whatever reason, there was no stock or there was little stock
3/5

This is what I will say. My order for a product I never received was sent to a 3rd party seller, but I suspect it was the manufacture themselves You'd be better off looking very hard if you see this and want to consider buying as part of an overall platform, because the manufacturer has effectively given up on supporting it. Aeration (two of the three items the platform supports) is one of the three tasks it supports. Despite discontinuing the roller and doing nothing to expand the company has done nothing to expand. As much as I liked the idea of saving space and making it easy to use, this does not work for me. There is a global shortage of tines at the time of this writing, which prevents the manufacture of this dethatcher. Those are funny. In addition to the tine dethatcher described above, there are many other choices available for.

A great product, but the packaging is terrible, causing frustration
5/5

In the Agri-Food It has been a pleasure working with Fab System. The SmartLink Platform and the Spike Aerator and Dethatcher attachments I bought are part of the purchase. I think the system does a great job, and it is high quality. The first time I aerated my 1-acre yard, it penetrated the soil about 2 inches or more at a time that the soil was fairly dry (lack of rain for about a week). My dethatcher then pulled up about 10 large contractor bags of stuff out of the lawn, and I then dethatched the lawn again (first the rear, then the front the next day). Taking care of my lawn by dethatching, mowing, then dethatching in the opposite direction and mowing again has been successful. Over seeding the lawn has also helped, including several bare spots, and the grass is growing well. In the next year, I hope to have a better lawn. *Now that we are here It is the only issue I have The agricultural sector The product is fantastic (as you can see from the many reviews I have found) Please pay attention to the Agri-business I love it! I am so mad that this company () does a piss poor job of packaging their products! There were three damaged boxes in which these pieces arrived Let's start with the inside! In the Agri-food industry, we do not use packaging dunnage There is no fab to secure the parts in the box, which causes heavy parts to move As well as that It is the Master that- In addition to the hardware that I had to buy at Lowe's, the link unit box was missing several pieces of plastic. It looks like they fell out of the damaged shipping box and ripped the plastic hardware bags apart or if they were never put in there in the first place. It is recommended that you go to the hardware store for nuts, bots, and clips that are missing, as it has been suggested in many, many reviews. The agricultural sector I marvel at your products We urge you to take our recommendations to heart and improve your packaging for your excellent products. The easiest way to stabilize a product in the box is to place some cardboard or foam dunnage in it to prevent the product being damaged or broken open so parts will.

The platform could not be fitted properly due to the problem with the platform
4/5

Was already assembled when it arrived. It did not line up with the mounting assembly because the mounting platform did not align with it. The right side platform panel of the platform does not have a 90-degree bend which prevents axle bearings from locking. Detacher does not have this issue, as the assembly is already done by the manufacturer, it is only the platform RHS side that was damaged at manufacturer. The AGRI-Industry contact has been made I submitted an FAB but did not hear back from them.

There is a surprising amount of thatch in there
5/5

With this SmartLink Dethatcher, all thatch is removed from the lawn without causing grass damage. They hold up well due to the stainless steel. It doesn't seem to have any rust on it. My spray bottle is filled with WD-40 You should always apply the 40 after each use to all metal parts as the instructions state. The platform concept appeals to me. I love how easy it is After seeing the Agri-Platform concept of the Agri-Market, I returned another product and paid shipping costs to return it I love it. This is far more versatile and functional than anything else on the market. You could put a price tag on it. To obtain all attachments, I intend to get them all.

The towing of any kind is not allowed
3/5

Despite the fact that you can't tow it by a rider mower, I don't know why they sell it. On Amazon, you can find a model that can be towed. Please be careful that this is what you are looking for.

Despite being a nice unit, I cannot use it due to lack of access to the Agri-Food Package This is the 45th Fab- I am using the SmartLink Master Platform 0473
3/5

It has been over a week since I have waited for the master unit to return. So far, a lot of money has been wasted without a clue as to who is responsible.
