TurfCo’s new T5000 Spreader/Sprayer is built to help landscape professionals scale up their productivity.
With its 60-gallon sprayer and 325-pound spreader capacity the T5000 is a scaled-up version of Turfco’s mid-sized riding applicator, the T3100 Spreader/Sprayer that has been a proven performer in the market since 2015.
While developed to comfortably tackle larger properties, the T5000 still fits through a 48-inch gate. Also, the T5000 and the T3100 share a similar operating system, so operators trained on the T3100 can get up to speed on the T5000 faster.
“The T5000 builds on the heritage of the hardworking T3100, so that between the two machines, business owners can cover all their properties, large and small,” says George Kinkead, president, Turfco. “Now your operators can move from one machine to the next, reducing training time and helping businesses grow profitably, making their staff more productive.”
It has a 22-hp engine that allows speeds up to 7 mph. The steering wheel drive system is easy-to-operate and provides control on hills and uneven terrain, minimizing operator fatigue and eliminating turf tearing. It also assists the operator in accurately matching up with the next application pass.
The T5000’s unique two-nozzle boomless spray system delivers an effective spray width of 10 feet, increasing productivity up to 29% over existing units. The boomless design eliminates some of the maneuverability challenges of spray booms by letting operators glide past obstacles such as signposts and fire hydrants without slowing down. And with the optional 3-In-1 Tank, it covers up to 300,000 sq. ft. per fill.
The hydraulically driven spreader provides infinite control up to 25 feet wide. Cables have been eliminated to streamline operation and ensure no down time. Turfco’s spreader and sprayer can do matching application widths for maximum one-pass productivity. Unique hard trim eliminates off-target prills to dramatically reduce clean-up time and wasted fertilizer.
The T5000 Spreader/Sprayer is available for factory-direct purchase from Turfco. For more product information, including virtual product demonstrations, and to purchase, please visit the company website at https://www.turfco.com/landscape-professionals/.
