The
length of the surface rollers are too long and we are getting
crease lines left on our greens from the weight at the end of
the surface rollers when rolling across undulations |
| |
|
| |
We
here at Tru-Turf have proudly produced a machine that almost
completely eliminates all of the problems associated with other
styles of rollers. We now give you a wider roll - 48" with
2x24"(600mm) dual shorter surface rollers which prevents
line creasing on the green no matter in which direction the
green is rolled. The shorter surface rollers swivel and pivot
in all required directions, allowing the drive roller and smoothing
rollers to be in total contact with the surface at all times.

The
rollers are extremely difficult and time consuming to transport
from green to green |
| |
|
| |
The
Tru-Turf trailer system is integral with the machine. This system
is quick and easy to use and saves valuable time when moving
from green to green. Top^ |

Why
are the rollers so heavy? |
| |
|
| |
The
weight of our roller is lighter than other machines. Heavy machines
produce compaction of the soil. We realise that the three main
ingredients required to compact soil are - a) water, b) vibration
and c) weight. Compaction of the soil is a constant battle to
eliminate; hence we recommend incorporating lightweight rolling,
deep spiking, drilling, coring and top dressing to assist in
relieving this problem. Our technology produces a lighter 'pounds
per square inch' result than any other greens roller ever produced.
What allows us to have such a light machine is the style of
'smoothing head' fitted with 3 unevenly spaced rollers. This
patented style of head does not require any great weight for
it to 'true away' high spots and greens imperfections. It is
like 'trowelling' the surface - allowing a perfectly true surface
for putting. Also there are other benefits such as increasing
the BRD (Ball Roll Distance), and reducing the number of mowings
per week, creating less stress on the grass which in turn produces
a healthier truer surface on the greens. Top^

Some
rollers are difficult and hard to steer |
| |
|
| |
Our
unique single handed joystick steering control is all that is
required to steer. In fact the Tu-Turf range of rollers feel
like they are fitted with power steering! They are extremely
light and easy to steer - this comment being made by all operators.
Allow just 3-4 greens to get used to the sideways movement of
the machine and you'll become a very proficient operator. Top^ |

 |
We
have a lot of difficulty in climbing certain sloping greens |
| |
|
| |
Maximum
traction in our machines is acquired via a high quality rubber
coated drive roller vulcanised to a steel tube, cylindrically
machined for trueness and grip. The roller surface is guaranteed
for the life of the machine when used only on the greens surface.
The low centre of gravity aids in climbing safety. Top^ |

It
takes us too long to roll 18 greens |
| |
|
| |
With
a Tru-Turf roller the time taken to roll your greens will be
no longer than it does to cut them - and in most cases rolling
is much quicker. Top^ |

Maintenance
is a nightmare |
| |
|
| |
Tru-Turf
Equipment has produced a simple machine that is extremely efficient,
cost effective and easy to maintain. All engine, transmission
and other components are available to you throughout a network
of distributors or agents. Top^ |

Rollers
are too expensive |
| |
|
| |
Most
turf maintenance equipment is expensive, but at the end of the
day it doesn't cost much extra to go first class and benefit
from the long term results of using Tru-Turf rollers. Our rollers
are considered the pinnacle of golf green rollers. We supply
to Asia, England, India, Hong Kong, China, Europe, Australia,
USA, New Zealand and more.
It is our experience that Golf Course Superintendents look for
the very best available equipment for their greens and that
equipment selection criteria is made on both product performance
and greens performance. We are offering you both, to assist
in improving your golf green and enhancing the playing pleasure
of your members. Top^ |
