Dry amendments include sand, calcined clays, DE and many custom blends. The process is VERY customizable and has nearly no surface disruption. We normally aerate at a 3x3" or 3x2" spacing at a depth of 3-6" deep. The nature of DryJect allows us to quickly access many areas that most turf managers cannot normally address. The water blast of our machine does not damage tree roots, irrigation lines/ heads, conduit, etc. DryJect is a franchise network that has service contractors throughout the world. All contractor information is available on our website. DryJect WRIGHT MFG'S COMPACT STANDER INTENSITY Wright Manufacturing's compact Stander Intensity, known as the Stander I, is equipped with the first 36" deck to incorporate Wright's revolutionary AERO CORE technology. Operators will appreciate the deck's improved airflow, cut quality and anti-blow out features. The floating deck on the Stander I tilts side-to-side and front-to-back, allowing the mower deck to better follow the terrain contours. It also improves the weight distribution for better handling on hills. The deck height can be adjusted "on the fly" in quarter-inch increments, and anti-scalp rollers automatically adjust the deck height to changes in terrain. The rugged Stander I is also built for operator comfort and easy step-off to pick up debris or in case of an emergency. The floating stand-on platform absorbs rough terrain through elastopolymer bumpers that provide a dampened feel similar to a car.
