When seed is sown on old lawns to renovate them, it is absolutely necessary 

 that the surface of the sod should be loosened in some manner, so that the seed 

 can root. On small plots a steel rake can be used for this purpose, but on larger 

 areas the " Lawn Scarifier" is indispensable. The teeth slant back and cut into 

 the old sod without tearing it up, it is also excellent for pulverizing and smoothing 

 freshly plowed ground and for cultivating garden crops it is invaluable. The 

 teeth can be adjusted to stand straight or incline backward, etc.
