I have read several threads on here about them ,some love some hate but a point was brought to my attention tonight !"Sorry if I am teaching Granny to suck eggs here"

There are 2 way's to assemble a mantis and I know some of you are given or acquire them the direction of the discs is crucial ,if you don't have a manual you may miss this ! To dig the points need to be leading into the soil this pulls it down. To use as a power hoe reverse them ie swap sides so they are facing the wrong way then they just scratch the surface, but the forward motion of the rotor still keeps it going forwards so you just hold it back until it has weeded that spot. If you are pulling it backwards to dig swap them over  Hope this helps a little for those of you without  manuals
