If youve been waiting to update your turf care equipment, now is the time. Toro is launching dozens of new features, products and innovations to improve the appearance and playability of your course as well as your crews productivity.

Game-Changing Greensmowers
Toro is making headlines with four new Greensmaster® models. The TriFlex and TriFlex Hybrid are the first riding greensmowers to cut with the precision of a walker. And the Flex walk greensmower lineup features improvements to the standard gas models and new lithium ion battery-powered eFlex models that can mow up to nine greens on a single charge.
Advanced Sprayer Technology
The new Multi Pro® 5800 sprayer delivers unsurpassed accuracy with features like the new Pro Control XP controller, which ensures the correct rate is applied from start to finish. Weve also simplified the chemical loading process, added an onboard fresh water rinse system, and included an oversized six diaphragm pump.
Fairway Mowers for Southern Heat
The new Reelmaster® 7000-D is a multifunction, heavy-duty reel mower designed for southern grass and high-heat conditions. High-torque reel motors, a SmartCool auto-reversing fan and easy-to-adjust cutting units are a few reasons why this is a great everyday fairway mower for the southern U.S. Video
A Rotary Mower With All-Wheel Steering
Toro introduces an all-new rotary mower category with the Groundsmaster® 360, featuring revolutionary Quad-Steer true all-wheel steering. You can stick a pencil in the ground and mow around it without tearing turf! It also maneuvers close around trees and fences, and provides excellent stability. Video
Intuitive Irrigation Control
The new Lynx irrigation control system provides an increased level of integration with critical system components, such as the pump station, weather station and the Turf Guard® soil monitoring system. This clean, intuitive user interface allows you to make quick decisions to manage your course.
Deep Tine Aerators
Aeration is critical for healthy, vigorous turf. In addition to the ProCore® 648 greens aerator, Toro offers the ProCore 864 and 1298 fairway aerators, Titan® QuickChange tine heads, the Titan Split tine, the ProCore Processor, and most recently, the ProCore SR Series line of deep tine aerators.
New Broadcast-Style Topdresser and Material Handler
Toro announces the new ProPass 200 topdresser, featuring a patented drop zone adjustment system, as well as the new MH-400 material handler for filling or renovating bunkers, filling irrigation trenches, hauling material and more. Both can be used with an optional electronic wireless controller. Video
More Debris Blower Versatility
In addition to the tow version Pro Force debris blower, you can now mount your Pro Force into the cargo bed of your Toro® Workman® MD or HD vehicle or other utility vehicles you may own. For added flexibility, new tapered and rectangular-shaped nozzles are available, allowing more concentrated air power.
Wireless Fleet Management
Now your equipment can tell you when its ready for service with the myTurf® wireless system. With a myTurf subscription, a base station in your maintenance facility and wireless hour meters on your equipment, your machines can transmit hours from up to 250 ft and generate automatic maintenance alerts.
New Utility Vehicle Cargo Bed
New on the Workman® MD series is a versatile cargo bed with an automotive-style, one-hand open-and-close tailgate design with the latch on the drivers side of the tailgate. The new bed can be customized with a variety of options and accessories, such as racking systems, to meet your needs.
More Rewards for Parts Purchases
The Toro Loyalty Counts parts reward program has grown, along with the catalog of rewards. In addition to Toro merchandise, you can now redeem TLC points for credit toward future parts purchases or factory service education, myTurf subscriptions and Toro consumer hand-held products.
