About the ProPass 180 Top
Dresser
Features and Benefits
The ProPass 180 Top Dresser is a lightweight, multi-
purpose top dresser for the turf grass maintenance industry.
•
It can spread various materials, including sand, top
dress mix, screened and composted material, lime, and
gypsum.
•
It has the lightest footprint in the industry, resulting in
less turf damage and lower maintenance costs.
•
The easy-to-attach Twin Spinner attachment (no tools
required) is ideally suited for light and frequent top
dresssing, with spread patterns up to 9.1 m (30 ft)
wide in one pass.
•
The easy-to-attach Vortex Brush attachment can
spread a variety of materials in heavy applications
between 1.2 m (4 ft) and 2.1 m (7 ft) wide.
•
It features a seamless belt for enhanced durability.
•
It features an easy-to-adjust rear gate.
•
Without attachments installed, it can be used as a
small capacity material mover.
•
The tow-behind chassis features a four-wheel, walking
beam suspension, which helps the ProPass navigate
uneven terrain while maintaining a smooth ride, and
an even weight transfer to the ground.
•
The modular design allows the ProPass to be easily
and inexpensively converted from a tow-behind
configuration to a truck-mount configuration, or vice
versa.
•
The hand-held on/off pendant allows the ProPass and
its attachments to be activated from the driver’s
position.
Components
Base Model
Because the ProPass is a modular system, the ProPass
Base Model is built and sold separately from its
attachments and other optional components.
The Base Model consists of a material hopper, a conveyor
belt system, electro-hydraulic controls, a rear gate, and the
belt cleaning scraper (Figure 3).
The Base Model is mounted on a chassis. Three different
chassis types are available, depending on your operating
requirements:
•
TYCROP tow-behind chassis
•
Toro Workman truck-mount chassis
•
John Deere ProGator truck-mount chassis
Options and Attachments
