Vredo Turf Buddy (Overseeding)
Seed areas where it is not possible to work with large machines
The Vredo Turf Buddy is specially designed for overseeding areas where it is not possible to work with large machines, perfect for small repairs on sports fields and golf courses.
The Vredo Turf Buddy uses the tried and tested double disc system as the rest of the larger machines in the Vredo range. Sowing in four rows at a distance of 35 mm. The 15 cm discs cut open the soil, after which the grass seed is deposited at a depth of 10 to 20 mm. Followed by a wheel that compacts the soil. this wheel also drives the sowing shaft via a V-belt. By reversing the belt drive, you can set the dosage in two positions: 100 or 200 kg per hectare, the sowing shaft can be activated with a lever on the handle.
The seed container has a capacity of 3 litres. The handle can be removed to ensure it does not take up too much space in transit or storage.
