TurfEx's Thatch, Groom 'N' Sweep Package TurfEx's Thatch, Groom 'N' Sweep Package is an attachment system designed specially for zero-turn mowers. This versatile attachment can be converted from a sweeper to a dethatcher without having to purchase additional equipment. Available in both 48- and 60-inch widths (models MT480 and MT600, respectively), the Thatch, Groom 'N' Sweep Package uses a universal mount that easily fits the form of most major manufacturers' zero-turn mowers. The attachment includes 2 rows of brush sections, which can be replaced with spring-mounted tines to turn the sweeper into a dethatcher in just a matter of minutes. To switch between the two, the operator simply removes a containment plate, and then slides the brush or tine sections in and out of the housing. The dethatcher version contains special tines for keeping turf damage to a minimum, whether the mower is driving forward, backing up, or conducting a tight turn. It also includes support wheels with adjustable height in order to optimize control while dethatching. TurfEx, a product division of TrynEx International

Ventrac EA600 AERA-vator The Ventrac EA600 AERA-vator is designed to stir and loosen the soil beneath the sod without destroying the turf. The EA600, designed for the Ventrac 4000 series tractor, creates a core hole without bringing a core plug to the surface, leaving the turf ready for use immediately after treatment. Six holes are created each foot (66 holes per square meter), and hole size is regulated by drive speed — the slower the drive speed, the larger the hole. The EA600 is built with the Ventrac Mount System, allowing for easy attachment changes, and it comes with a standard jack stand for easy mounting. Ventrac by Venture Products Inc.
