Lawn Roller Profix model 40118 — 28×80 cm turf maintenance roller

Profix lawn roller model 40118 is a turf maintenance roller with a 28×80 cm rolling surface designed for flattening soil and improving seed-to-soil contact. Its compact cylinder provides even pressure across the turf, helping to reduce small surface irregularities and to firm the top layer after sowing or turf laying. The simple construction supports manual handling and straightforward attachment to compatible towing devices or handles.

Advantages

The roller delivers uniform compaction across a broad 28×80 cm surface to enhance seed germination and to stabilise freshly laid turf. Its balanced weight distribution minimises streaking and uneven passes, while the cylindrical design allows controlled pressure for light to moderate rolling tasks. The device is easy to operate and maintain due to its uncomplicated mechanical design and durable materials suitable for regular garden use.

Suitable for

• Evening out small depressions and footprints in lawns
• Firming topsoil after grass seeding to improve seed-to-soil contact
• Preparing a flat surface before laying turf or rolls of sod
• Light compaction of garden bed surfaces and pathway edges

Key specifications

• Rolling surface dimensions: 28 × 80 cm
• Cylindrical roller design for even pressure distribution
• Construction: simple, manual-friendly frame and roller assembly
• Intended use: turf and small garden area maintenance

How to use

Operate the roller by moving it over the target area at a steady pace, ensuring overlapping passes for uniform compaction. For seeded lawns, roll shortly after broadcasting seed to press seeds into the soil without burying them too deeply. When preparing ground for turf installation, perform several passes to create a level, firm surface. Use light incremental passes rather than heavy single passes to avoid over-compaction.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use the roller on moist but not waterlogged soil; overly wet ground can cause clumping and uneven compaction, while very dry soil may not compact effectively. Check compatibility with any towing handle or hitch before use and clean the roller after each season to prevent soil buildup and corrosion.
