I know this is an old thread, but figured I'd add my $0.02. I had the Agri-Fab 175 drop spreader & aerator combo. I ended up getting rid of it due to the fertilizer I usually use kept plugging up the holes on the bottom and having to stop and lift it up to go over things, such as the driveway, curbs, etc. Had to get off the tractor to push the lever to lower the wheels. It did, however, work well with the Scott's brand fertilizer. My off-brand fert had slightly bigger granules it appeared. The weight of the fertilizer really shoved the aerator tines into the ground; even hard packed ground. Went back to my walk behind/pull behind broadcast spreader.
