FAQs

Is a handle included with the Gardena 3165-20 Grubber-Rake?

No, the GARDENA combisystem handles are sold separately. You can choose from a variety of combisystem handles to suit your needs.

What is the working width of this tool?

The working width of the Gardena 3165-20 Grubber-Rake is 9 cm.

How do I clean the Grubber-Rake?

After use, remove any soil and debris with a brush or damp cloth. Store in a dry location.

What makes this tool 'eco-friendly'?

It allows for purely mechanical weed removal, eliminating the need for chemical herbicides, which is better for the environment and soil health.

Can I use this tool with handles from other brands?

No, the Gardena 3165-20 is part of the GARDENA combisystem and is only compatible with GARDENA combisystem handles.

What is the warranty period for GARDENA combisystem tools?

GARDENA offers a 25-year warranty on all combisystem tools, including the Grubber-Rake head.

Is this tool suitable for breaking up very hard, compacted soil?

While it aerates soil and loosens weeds, it is most effective on moderately compacted soil. For heavily compacted areas, pre-loosening with a spade or fork may be necessary.

Troubleshooting

Tool head feels wobbly or loose.

Ensure the screw attachment connecting the tool head to the combisystem handle is tightened securely. Check for any debris obstructing the connection.

Soil is too hard to loosen effectively.

The Grubber-Rake is best for loosening and removing existing weeds and aerating moderately compacted soil. For heavily compacted or clay soils, a heavier-duty tiller or digging fork may be more appropriate before using the Grubber-Rake for finishing.

Weeds are not being fully removed.

Ensure you are using both the cultivator and rake functions in sequence. For deeper weeds, you may need to work the cultivator side more thoroughly before raking.

Pros and Cons

  • Environmentally friendly, chemical-free gardening solution.
  • Durable and long-lasting due to high-quality steel and Duroplast coating.
  • Versatile with GARDENA combisystem, allowing for various handle options.
  • Reduces physical strain by enabling an upright working posture with the right handle.

Cons

  • Handle is sold separately, requiring an additional purchase.
  • Working width of 9 cm may be limiting for very large areas.
  • Requires compatible GARDENA combisystem handle to function.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

To set up the Gardena 3165-20 Combisystem Grubber-Rake, first select a compatible GARDENA combisystem handle (sold separately). Align the tool head with the connection point on the handle and secure it using the integrated screw attachment. Ensure the screw is tightened firmly for a stable connection.

Compatibility:

This tool head is part of the GARDENA combisystem and is compatible with all GARDENA combisystem handles. These handles come in various materials (wood, aluminum) and lengths, allowing for ergonomic adaptation to user height and task.

Care:

After use, clean the tool head by removing soil and debris. A dry brush or a damp cloth is usually sufficient. Store the tool in a dry place to prevent rust, though the Duroplast coating offers excellent protection. Periodically check the screw attachment for tightness.
