All-New Sand Pro Zero-Turn Bunker Rake At Harrogate
Toro launched the all-new Sand Pro 2040Z bunker rake at BTME – a zero-turn mechanical groomer that is unique to the market, it says.
The zero-turn design allows the machine to turn on a sixpence, giving it unmatched manoeuvrability to deliver picture-perfect grooming in all sorts of bunkers, even small, tight bunkers and those with sloped walls.
Toro launched the all-new Sand Pro 2040Z bunker rake at BTME.Added to this, the new Sand Pro 2040Z features a new ‘flex’ tooth rake system with a rake made from modified natural rubber that is built in three sections. Each of the sections moves independently to perfectly groom bunker contours. What’s more, a patent-pending ‘lift in turn’ feature lifts the inside rake during a tight turn, leaving no unraked teardrops or tyre marks behind.
The 84-inch (213cm) wide flexible rubber rake is designed in such a way that it won’t tear bunker liners or turf on bunker edges. It is easily operated through a thumb switch on the control stick, making full operation safe and easy.
Toro says that the SP2040Z’s unparalleled manoeuvrability, combined with a fast, 12mph (19.3km/h) transport speed for whizzing between bunkers, makes it the ultimate in productivity. Indeed, the machine’s speed and efficiency gets the job done up to a quarter faster than ordinary bunker rakes, claims the company.
Excellent power comes from a robust 12.2hp (9.1kW) Kawasaki engine. And the unit features a unitised transmission design that minimises hydraulic lines and connections for reliable, low-maintenance performance.
Power steering via two independent control sticks makes driving the machine virtually effortless – it steers just like a zero-turn mower.
