Reesink Turfcare launched two new products from Toro and the next big thing for sustainable machinery cleaning at SALTEX last month.

The new Toro ProCore 648s builds on the incredible legacy of the ProCore 648 and brings even more innovative features to the time-tested machine that changed the way customers aerate. The s stands for superior – and superior it is.

An updated version of a customer-favourite model, there are more than 10 new patents and all the best features of the 648 customers know and love, with some brand-new enhancements based off operator feedback and Toro’s own in-depth studies.

Now, with all the primary controls at the operator’s fingertips, this machine can be operated single-handedly. Hole spacing and true tine depth and hole spacing can be set and saved in the InfoCentre and there’s a broader range of 5mm (0.25 inches) for the ultimate control.

The new electronically controlled hydrostatic three-wheel drive ensures consistent hole spacing when aerifying up or down hill and the delay mode minimises disruption of the playing surface and guarantees maximum tine depth on the first entries into the soil. It allows operators to easily target where they want the coring head to drop or raise using the leading edge of the front tyre as a marker, making starting and ending passes or going over an in-ground hurdle like a sprinkler much easier.

All ProCore 648 accessories are compatible with the ProCore 648s and can be used interchangeably.

Reesink Turfcare also unveiled the latest powerhouse from Toro to tackle all terrains: the new Toro Workman UTX 4×4. Built to withstand all environments including ice and snow, this robust four-wheel drive, full-sized utility vehicle can handle curbs, inclines, hillsides, slopes and drops and has a high ground clearing (25.4cm/10ins).
With 25 percent more cargo capacity than that of others in its class and a towing capacity of up to 2000lbs it delivers the ultimate productivity. It’s road-ready and comes with a proprietary speed control system to guarantee the right speed and power for the job at hand, meaning customers can choose between lower RPMs for lower fuel consumption and sound in sensitive areas, or higher RPMs for more power to haul a heavier load up hills and inclines.

Reesink Turfcare also brought back the Toro Groundsmaster 3300 with its innovative flail attachment. The GM3300 on its own can deliver year-round productivity and multiple cutting options, cope easily with longer, coarser, dry or wet grass and combat extended mowing cycles and it was this that immediately caught the market’s attention. But when paired with the fine-cut flail attachment option the machine can cut two ways as well and this sort of innovation from Toro guarantees the kind of productivity customers today demand.

New to Reesink Turfcare’s offering and the next big thing for sustainable cleaning of machinery was Bio-Circle GT Maxi, the parts cleaner that requires no water and eliminates pollutant run-off into the water system. This provides customers with the solution for a VOC-free, pH neutral cleaning option that’s gentle on the environment but powerful enough to remove grease, oil, grass contamination, whiteline paint and fertiliser.
