the Maredo MT series provides a rapid response to difficulties occurring in the vital area just beneath the turf surface .
The units comprise three independent floating heads and an ‘ A ’ frame with pivot point which makes turning simple . Each head – or task cassette -measures just over 63 cm , giving a 1.9 m total working width . They attach to tractors , min 30 HP , via 3-point linkage PTO , Category I .
Originally launched with just two task cassettes – the MT 200 Flex-Verticutter and the MT210 VibeSpike-Aerator- these two cassettes were met with instant acclaim . There are now five popular models in the MT series , with additions of the MT170 FlexFraze mower and the MT410 DiscSeeder ( bent ) or
MT418 Disc Seeder ( fescue ).
The cleverly configurated heads with their flexi suspension cover ground amazingly quickly . Indeed , whether in scarifying , aerating , fraise-mowing or overseeding mode , operator feedback is always about how thorough and tidy a job they have made and their impressive work rate .
• The MT 200 Flex-Verticutter removes thatch cleanly and at speed . Easy adjustment allows for a light scarification by just letting the blades touch the top layer or it can be set deeper down to depths of around 25 mm where it removes much more .
• The MT210 VibeSpike Aerator allows for expert following of undulations , leaving smooth surfaces . The spike tools vibrate to crack the soil , punching holes to let air and nutrients through .
• The MT170 Flex Frase mower targets problem areas and strips off up to 20 mm of the turf ’ s top layer , leaving a perfectly flat and smooth surface ready for other desired practices . It is also ideal for removing undulations on goal mouths , tee boxes and other surfaces .
• The MT410 Disc Seeder ( bent ) or MT418 Disc Seeder ( fescue ) heads uses unique technology to plant the seed right where it should be and protect it against all kinds of outside influences . This is a slit disc seeder which can dose seed from 0 to -15 mm at as low as 2 g / m ² to 15 g / m ². Each seed box carries up to 12 kg of seed , with disc seeder slit spacings at 42 mm .
