The TDR-12B tri-deck roller mower has a 12' wide cut and full length rollers on each deck making it ideal for sports turf, polo fields, and municipal parks. The TDR-12B can cut as low as ½ while it stripes the turf for a pleasing visual impact. Using the Progressive TDR-12B will provide an outstanding professional finished appearance as it smooths the surface at the same time. In addition the re-growth of divots is improved through better root to soil contact from the passing rollers. Cutting heights are quick and simple to set with the supplied tool to any height from ½ to 4. If the mower needs to be transported on public roads, optional fenders are available
A superior quality cut is achieved with the combination of high tip speed and Progressive's high lift blades, which stands the grass up prior to cutting and then disperses the clippings evenly over the rear rollers. Only 25 to 40 horsepower is required to operate the TDR-12B, which keeps the cost of tractor operation low.
All mower decks are free floating to follow changing contours. Decks float side to side is 40 degrees total (15 degrees down and 25 degrees up). In addition, unlike similar mowers, the TDR-12B decks float a total of 24 degrees front to back (12 degrees down and 12 degrees up).
Features may include:
Progressive's exclusive Pro Lift-N-Turn system is standard equipment. Operators have the ability to slightly raise the decks off the ground with the PTO still engaged, making turning easier on the turf as the weight of the mower is distributed between the tractor and the floatation tires. An automatic stop prevents the main decks from rising too far.
- Maintenance Free Blade Spindles
Developed and tested over several years, Progressive is pleased to introduce maintenance free blade spindle assemblies. Completely interchangeable with a greased spindle, the same housing is used providing wide spacing between the bearings ensuring low bearing loading and long service life. Maintenance free blade spindles not only protect the owner's investment from a missed service, it also reduces overall maintenance time and costs.
With a tip speed over 18,000 feet per minute, Progressive's high lift blades provide superior airflow, to stand grass up to be cleanly cut and evenly discharged over the rear rollers, while minimizing clumping and accumulation.
Progressive's high tip speed provides a clean even cut at ground speeds up to 6 miles per hour, for the high productivity users have come to appreciate form a Progressive mower.
- Easy change height adjustment
Infinite cutting height adjustment from ½ to 4 is easily accomplished with the on board tool. This allows the TDR-12B to transition quickly for multiple mowing height applications.
6 diameter rollers run full length on both the front and rear of each TDR-12B mower deck. Helping to smooth the mowing surface while cutting, the rollers help promote root to turf contact, for faster divot repair and healthier turf.
The rollers can also stripe the turf for a pleasing visual impact for the facilities patrons - a testament to the professionalism of the job.
