FAQs
What is the primary use of this lawn levelling rake?
Its primary use is to flatten uneven ground and spread materials like soil, sand, compost, or top dressing evenly across a lawn or garden bed.
What are the dimensions of the rake head?
The rake head measures 114cm x 25cm (approximately 45 inches x 10 inches).
Is the rake head made of metal?
Yes, the rake head is made of rust-resistant stainless steel.
What is the total length of the rake?
The total length of the rake, including the handle, is 205cm.
Can this rake be used for breaking up compacted soil?
While it's designed for levelling and spreading, its wide head might not be optimal for breaking up heavily compacted soil. It's best suited for distributing loosened or loose materials.
How should I store the rake to prevent rust?
Store the rake in a dry environment. After use, clean off any debris and dry the rake head thoroughly. Keeping it under cover or indoors is recommended.
What kind of maintenance does this rake require?
Basic maintenance involves cleaning off debris after each use and drying the stainless steel head to prevent any potential surface corrosion and ensure longevity.
Troubleshooting
Rake head feels loose
Check the connection point between the handle and the rake head. Tighten any screws or bolts if present. If the handle is a push-fit, ensure it's fully inserted.
Soil not levelling evenly
Ensure the material you are spreading is consistent in texture. Make sure you are using a consistent, sweeping motion with the rake. For very uneven areas, it may require multiple passes or a different approach for initial rough levelling.
Rust appearing on the rake head
While the head is rust-resistant, prolonged exposure to moisture without drying can cause surface rust. Clean the affected area with a soft brush and dry thoroughly. Apply a light coat of oil to the metal if storing for extended periods.
