Operating Tips for the Arena Ace

If you have questions about the proper operation of the Arena Ace, contact your dealer or the manufacturer for assistance.

Ensure no one is within 25 feet of the tractor before starting it.
Raise or lower the Arena Ace to control the amount of material you want to work with.
Setting the S-tines deeper requires slower speeds and increases stress on both the Arena Ace and the tractor. It's more effective to work with less material and make multiple passes.
The Arena Ace is designed for pulling only. Pushing it can damage the tractor’s top link and lift arms.
Lower the Arena Ace to the ground and begin moving forward. Adjust your speed and angle based on soil conditions.
Do not exceed a tractor speed of 8 mph during operation.
Pass diagonally through sharp dips and avoid sudden drops to prevent the tractor and Arena Ace from getting stuck.
Always watch for hidden hazards in the terrain while operating the equipment.
