How to use

To use the Flo 35816 digging fork, position the tines vertically over the area of soil you wish to cultivate. Apply firm downward pressure using your foot on the top of the fork head to drive the tines deep into the ground. Once inserted, pull the handle backward to leverage the soil, effectively turning it over or breaking up clumps. For aeration, simply insert the tines into the soil and gently rock the handle back and forth without fully turning the earth.

What to consider before purchase

• Ensure the 155 cm length is suitable for your height to maintain ergonomic posture
• Verify that the wooden handle is kept dry during storage to prevent degradation
• Consider the soil type in your garden to ensure the 4-tine design meets your specific needs

Usage recommendations

Regularly clean the steel tines after each use to prevent rust and soil buildup. Store the tool in a dry, sheltered area to maintain the integrity of the wooden handle and ensure the longevity of the product.
