  • Manufacturer: Craftsman
  • Category: Lawn tractor
  • Primary Function: Keeps the plugger tine in position during aeration

Installation & Compatibility

Additional Information

Plugger spring 6000282 keeps the aerator attachment s plugger tine securely in place so it can penetrate the soil evenly during operation. It replaces part numbers 28-11A and 306131.

Replacing a worn or damaged spring can correct problems such as loose tines or uneven aeration patterns. A secure spring helps the aerator work efficiently, improving soil aeration so water, air, and nutrients can reach grass roots more effectively.

Wear work gloves when installing the spring to protect your hands from sharp edges or tensioned components. Regular inspection and timely replacement of the spring will help maintain consistent aeration results and extend the life of your aerator attachment.

Only part of my order came correctly. I cannot use it because the other part of my order is not correct, so I'm sitting with four pieces I didn't order and can't use.

Bought a good used Craftsman 48' aerator but' Not sure how to install. A pic or directions would be great appreciated. I'm sure I'm making it way to difficult.

Very difficult to find parts. After spending a lot of time searching different sites, I found a part conversion list for Sears parts. Ordered both the aerator springs and tines. Both arrived very quickly and were exactly what I need.

Not equivalent to Part 28-11
October 16, 2021|Al C, Boyertown PA

For my 42" Core Plugger (610.243280), the spring is wound 1 additional time than the OEM spring (28-11), making it too thick to install the tine. I had to squeeze the tine to distort it and make it narrower so that it would work.
