Garden works require considerable physical efforts to dig up root crops, remove weed grass roots and cultivate the land. Due to the scale of the work, digging up the garden is usually done in batches, with the gradual cultivation of small areas. This process can be simplified with the help of a miracle shovel for digging the earth. This simple and inexpensive tool is extremely effective even on complex soil.
Advantages of the Miracle Shovel
This garden device is more likely not a shovel, but a cultivator, because, in addition to digging, it also breaks up clods of earth. A miraculous digger is two (sometimes one) slats with pins dynamically connected to each other. Some varieties are equipped with a back stop, which provides easier digging of dense and heavy soil.
The tool is completely unlike a classic shovel, it does not have the canvas itself, and the handle is much longer. An even more convenient model, the tip of which complemented by a crossbeam. This makes it possible to work with two hands.
The miracle shovel performs the following functions:
- loosening the soil;
- breaking clods;
- the most holistic extraction of weed roots;
- easy digging of root crops.
But still, the main advantage is the significant facilitation of the process of digging the earth. When using it, the back muscles are minimally involved, the main work is performed by the arms and legs.
The only drawback of a self-digging shovel is its significantly greater weight compared to the classic counterpart. But in the process, it does not need to be lifted, only when installed on the soil at the beginning of the row. The rest of the time, just drag the tool by the handle.
When using this device, time for digging up the garden is spent at least two times less, due to the wider width of the working part (50-60 cm), without increasing physical activity.
Principle of operation
Although there should not be any special difficulties with a super-shovel for digging a garden, you should still figure out how to use it correctly. The launching pad for work should be the far edge of the bed, from which you should move to the neighbor, gradually pulling the pitchfork back.
The general operation algorithm includes the following sequence of actions:
- Taking the shovel by the handle, you need to put it vertically with emphasis on the front cultivator.
- Then it is necessary to drive the pitchfork into the soil until the ground stops touching the ground. When working with heavy dense soil, you will have to make an effort and put your foot on the front crossbar.
- Then the handle must be pulled over to ensure that the forks move upward, they will go through the forks of the front stop and begin to break the clods.
- Dragging the tool a little back, you must repeat the second and third step.
In practice, everything is elementary simple. After a couple of attempts, actions will be obtained automatically.
