Bloomington, Minneapolis, United States: With recent innovations to the Sand Pro product family, Toro is offering a comprehensive mechanical bunker grooming solution for any application, large or small.
This includes a complete range of attachments to increase the overall versatility of the Sand Pro line.
The newest attachment for the Toro Sand Pro 3040 and 5040 is the Quick Attach System Flex Tooth Rake, which was originally available only on the Sand Pro 2040Z.
“After we launched the Flex Tooth Rake attachment on the Sand Pro 2040Z, superintendents were thrilled with how it performed,” said Jeremy Opsahl, Marketing Manager at Toro, an Executive Member of the Asian Golf Industry Federation.
“In an effort to continually provide the best grooming solutions to the golf market, we are pleased to announce that this is now available across the entire line.”
The QAS Flex Tooth Rake’s trowels are made from a modified natural rubber that provides exceptional grooming without damaging bunker liners or turf. Comprised of three individual sections that together span 84 inches in width, the overlapping rake sections are able to continuously groom a 70-inch radius surface to allow operators to groom more of the bunker mechanically.
With over 20 other attachments available to enhance the utility of the Sand Pro family, superintendents are able to repair a bunker after a washout, groom sand, blow debris, and much more with a single machine.
Additional attachments include a bunker pump, which is capable of pumping up to 95 gallons of water per minute and throwing it up to 40 feet away – in addition to a Weeder Tine Toolbar, which efficiently removes weeds with a single pass while grooming.
Toro also invites customers to check out the new Sand Pro Configurator, which allows superintendents to virtually mount attachments to a Sand Pro unit. Users can select from the entire portfolio of front, mid-mount and rear attachments to build their ideal Sand Pro from scratch. The site also allows users to email configurations right from the site.
Most attachments for the Toro Sand Pro 3040 and 5040 mount to the unit through the innovative Quick Attach System, which allows operators to change attachments in less than a minute, contributing to overall golf course maintenance productivity.
