slim67 2,820 #1 Posted September 16 I picked this up today while I was on marketplace looking for just any aerator. I've had a couple in the past but not built like this one. I actually need one this time and lucked out finding this one. I've seen a lot of Wheelhorse implements but never seen a spiker aerator. 1 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
c-series don 10,261 #2 Posted September 16 Wow! Good score! I have a similar one made by Ohio Steel, needs plenty of weight to be effective. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gwest_ca-(File Mod) 11,611 #5 Posted September 17 I'm thinking it should be a model 7-2411 but that does not look like what is on the plate. Looks like 7-2311 which is a lawn roller. The 7 on the end makes it a 1972 model. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Could have someone accidently put the wrong tag on during the manufacturing process? One of those Monday/Friday workers? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
