New topdresser from TurfTime Equipment TurfTime Equipment's new TT 2430 Advantage topdresser is becoming a contractor and manager favorite for synthet- ic and natural turf. Designed to spread material faster than competitors, the industry's largest eight paddle spinners distribute material evenly up to 50 feet wide. With two simple adjustments, an operator can drop 6 ft. baseline. The large hopper with sideboard option accommodates 2000 lb bags of infill mix for synthetic fields. These heavy-duty topdressers are built on durable two or four-wheel chassis, and come with several power options. TurfTime Equipment New TurfCat out-front rotary mower Jacobsen has introduced a completely refreshed TurfCat out-front rotary mower. Featuring all-hydraulic deck and traction drives, the multi-purpose machine provides the lowest cost of ownership in its class. The new TurfCat costs significantly less to maintain because it has no gear box, belts, pulleys, drive shaft or clutch to service. The new TurfCat has 15 less grease points and 212 less service parts compared to competitive products. In addition to the TurfCat's lower cost of ownership, the rotary mower is also extremely versatile, offering nine different deck configurations and five attachments for year-round use. In addition to offering a blower, dozer blade, hydraulic broom and snow blower, Jacobsen offers the industry's only 60-inch fine cut flail deck for the TurfCat. Jacobsen New machine for synthetic turf maintenance Earth & Turf Products, LLC, has introduced the TruFlow 54D-ATS or Artificial Turf Special. This special unit can be used to put down crumbed rubber and sweep it into the fiber layers or be used as a topdresser to add crumbed rubber as required to rejuvenate artificial turf fields or lawns.

Higher sides can be added when using only crumbed rubber. The 54D-ATS is another example of Earth & Turf's simple well-built machines. Price is under $3,000.
