The TurfMaker® 430 can mix and apply up to 175 pounds of wood mulch or 250 pounds of paper mulch with one tank load in less than 20 minutes. When making applications for Sod Quality Results, 100% wood fiber mulch should be applied at a rate of 50-75 pounds per 1,000 square feet. When providing typical hydro-seeding, 10,000 square feet can be easily covered with one tank load. Note that 100% wood fiber mulch applied at thicker rates always produce better and more reliable results. The TurfMaker® 430 is powerful enough to pump thick mulch slurries through as much as 500 feet of hose, and then project the mulch slurry more than 75 feet from the end of the hose. With this power and mulch handling capacity, the TurfMaker® 430 can apply more mulch, and plant more area per hour, than significantly larger jet agitation machines. It is not necessary to use a lot of water to apply a lot of mulch with a TurfMaker®. The TurfMaker® 430, equipped with the optional clear water system, can fill itself from an auxiliary water tank without ever leaving the job site. This saves numerous trips to a fire hydrant or some other appropriate water source. The auxiliary water tank can be continuously filled with two garden hoses, and supply the water needed for three or four tank loads per hour. When a high volume water source is not close by, the TurfMaker® 430 can actually work faster and apply more mulch per hour than larger mechanical agitation machines. The TurfMaker® 430 will actually fit into the bed of a pickup truck. With one bag of wood mulch, along with seed and fertilizer, this mixture will likely be 130-140 gallons resulting in the loaded machine weighing about 2,600 lbs. When filled to capacity, the total weight may exceed the truck’s carrying capacity. The machine can also be used on a flat bed truck or a small utility trailer. With this compactness and versatility, the TurfMaker® 430 can be taken into places larger machines can’t go. When premium grasses such as Tifway 419 are called for, the TurfMaker® 430 will even perform hydro-sprigging. No need to lay sod with lots of labor. Tifway 419 is ideal for sports fields, golf course fairways, and for homeowners wanting beautiful, easy-to-care-for, durable turf. It’s not even necessary to find a sod grower willing to cut sprigs. All TurfMakers® can perform hydro-sprigging utilizing the new patented Vegetative Planting Technology. The TurfMaker® 430 - For Landscape Contractors & Golf Course Maintenance. |
