TurfWorks roll out new Power Brush attachment

For golf courses seeking the highest standards of surface finish on their greens, the new TurfWorks Rear Roller Power Brush Kit can be fitted to all Turfworks chassis. This will avoid unsightly deposits of clippings and other material being left on the grass.

Being launched at BTME 2007, the patented Rear Roller Power Brush Kit is the latest addition for the popular TurfWorks product, which enables turf professionals to undertake a range of key maintenance tasks with their existing greens mowers. This maximises operational efficiency while ensuring high-quality turf.

The ground-driven brush stops material building up on rear rollers, which would otherwise fall as deposits on the greens. In this way an attractive and true playing surface is achieved.

Greenkeepers all over the world are now appreciating the benefits of the TurfWorks system, which can be fitted to greens triples and lightweight fairway mowers. Other cassette attachments available include a verti-cutter, a vibrating brush for integrating top-dressing with a vibro roller, a sarel roller, a star spiker, a scarifier and a rotary grooming brush. In addition, an Ultra Grooma cassette can be used to remove unsightly poa annua seed heads before this undesirable grass species can establish, thus encouraging healthy turf growth.

All TurfWorks attachments are designed for great durability and ruggedness. They can be fitted in seconds and are adjusted without the use of tools.

This robust construction enables the system to incorporate an effective vibrating roller system, achieved by offset weights on the rotating shaft. Vibrations of optimal frequency are transmitted to the front and rear rollers on the True Level Vibro Roller cassette. This generates a smoothing effect to iron out greens turf for a fast, consistent, putting surface.

“The TurfWorks Fine Turf Greens Maintenance Cassette System is proving to be a real winner, and not just because of its great versatility,” says Richard Campey, Managing Director of Campey Turf Care Systems. “Greenkeepers also appreciate the unrivalled quality of the product over its competitors and the surface finish it achieves, and the new TurfWorks Rear Roller Power Brush Kit proves this once again.”
