Tru-Turf lineup includes new lightweight roller

 

For golf course superintendents seeking fast, firm conditions on contoured greens, Tru-Turf has added the R50-11 lightweight roller to its lineup.

 

48dda97c804e0fafe34ac2615883d199-.jpgPowered by a 6.5 hp Honda gas engine paired with an Eaton hydrostatic transmission, the R50-11 operates at speeds up to 9 mph and vibration is minimized by engine isolation mounts.

 

The unit is driven by a flexible, full-width contour following drive roller and is equipped with Tru-Turfs patented triple offset smoothing rollers. It combines overlapping roller heads with a new self-cleaning smoothing roller system that results in a 50-inch wide roll on the most contoured greens without leaving gaps, grass clippings or line crease marks.

 

Displacing just 3.8 pounds per square inch, the R50-11, comes with rubber coated, non-stick drive roller, providing the traction needed for the most challenging of course designs and help create fast, true surfaces, without compacting the soil beneath, helping result in healthier putting green turf.
