Using the Unit

The MF - MM dethatcher MultiTool is
designed to remove old, dried cuttings,
moss, grass or root residue from lawns.
Preparations
If the lawn is very dry, spray it with water
before you start work: this softens the
soil a little and reduces the amount of
dust created.
If the grass is longer than about 2 in
(5 cm), mow it before using the
dethatcher.
WARNING
Clear away all obstacles and solid
objects from the work area.
Plan the route to be taken.
