T-BAR CONTROLS REDUCES OPERATOR FATIGUE AND INCREASES PRODUCTIVITY
The Toro Company has introduced new T2 T-Bar controls on its line of float-ing deck, hydrostatic drive, mid-size walk-behind mowers. The new controls incorporate a split version of the classic T-Bar operation with the addition of dual-reference bars for more precise maneuvers. The T2 T-Bar Hydro uses straightforward control logic – push to go forward, pull back for reverse – that makes the controls easy to understand and simple to train new operators. The decreased activation force reduces operator fatigue, while the layout of the controls allows the machine to be operated with one hand when necessary.
The power source also contributes to operator productivity – with a choice of a 17- or 19-hp Kawasaki KAI V-Twin engine. Operators can select the size of their mower, with 36-, 40-, 48-, and 52-inch Turbo Force decks available, ensuring they have the right mower for whatever size job they need to tackle.
