What do you mean by wheelings Paul?  I'm not well informed on pitch maintenance.  Anyone have a view on Institute of Groundsmanship?  Any good / use for the subs fee??

Have a look at these. Just towed but your machine should be more than capable not saying they are any good mind!
Been looking myself but can’t see one that’s good enough paying for itself without a compact tractor which I don’t have!

If you push you will be driving over the slits/holes you have just made closing some of them up straight away

You will aerate the ground then roll it with wheels down hard again because you are pushing and not towing

Bloody hell, obvious when you know what you're talking about.  A revelation to a dullard!

You could always use your MO in reverse gears on these jobs.

Varies according to the materiel that's being cut Mick, I've done some thick gorse on hi-flow, and mid revs (can't remember what level but will be out again with it soon I suspect). Less revs and not on high flow for long grass.  Sorry not too specific but it's been a while since I've had it running and I can't remember
