How to use the Ryan Lawn IV Aerator

1. Pre-check the lawn

  • Water the lawn 1-2 days before aerating, soil should be damp, not muddy. 

  • Mark sprinkler heads

  • Remove rocks, sticks, and debris

2. Start the machine safely

  • Set throttle to low / idle

  • ​Engage choke if engine is cold

  • Pull start or electric start (depending on model condition)

  • Let it warm up for 1–2 minutes

3. Set aeration depth

  • Adjust depth control lever

  • Typical residential depth: 2–3 inches

  • Hard/compacted soil may need multiple passes

4. Begin aerating

  • Lower tines into the ground while moving forward slowly

  • Walk at a steady pace—don’t rush it

  • Let the machine do the work (don’t push hard)

5. Make crossing passes (important)

  • First pass: straight lines

  • Second pass: go perpendicular (crosshatch pattern) for best results

  • This gives full soil coverage and better oxygen flow

6. Turning the machine

  • Lift tines before turning

  • Make slow, wide turns to avoid turf damage

7. Finishing up

  • Turn off engine before transporting

  • Clean mud/debris from tines

  • Inspect for damage or worn tines before returning

Pro tips

  • Aerate in spring or fall for best results

  • Follow with overseeding and fertilizer for best recovery

  • Avoid aerating drought-stressed or frozen lawns
