Turfco adds XT10 to lineup

BLAINE, Minn. – Turfco has released the new XT10, which now replaces the TurnAer XT8. The XT10 is engineered to continue driving the productivity of riding aerators with upgrades that increase reliability and durability, and can be used for residential, commercial, and sports fields.

The machine features zero-turn agility, optional 60-pound seeder attachment and patent-pending Auto Depth Control tine-setting capacity. A 23-hp engine gives it plenty of power, with a top aerating speed of 7 mph and 30-inch aerating width – capable of covering two acres of turf per hour. The optional drop seeder attachment allows operators to increase productivity by up to 50% and double profit by doing both by seeding and aerating at the same time.

“Landscape companies need the productivity of stand-on aeration, and we are upgrading the durability to accommodate all types of operators and terrain,” said George Kinkead, president, Turfco Manufacturing. “Landscape professionals can see triple productivity gains using the XT10 over the traditional walk-behind aerators.

“We focused on improving the XT10 where It counts most with customers, in areas such as decreased downtime, reliability and product longevity,” he adds. “It’s part of our continuous improvement program.”

The XT10 enhancements include the following:

• Brawnier axles: bigger, 34% stronger, and tested against extreme conditions to provide reliability and durability.
• New semi-pneumatic front caster wheels make flat tires a thing of the past.
• The tine wheels are enhanced.
• Upgraded electronic foot-controlled tine switch is easier to clean and maintain than mechanical.                                    
• The XT10 has optimized the weight distribution for better handling and better aeration in a variety of conditions.

The XT10 is engineered to be hassle-free, with features such as drive chains located outside the aeration area so that soil and debris will not clog up the system. The Auto Depth Control function adapts automatically to changing ground conditions so that operators can pre-set the depth once and achieve uniform consistency. The 23-hp engine ensures that consistent speed is maintained during aeration.
