Toro’s presence at the GIE+EXPO last week included energizing videos of new products and features. While the pages of Turf‘s Fall magazine showcased two new models in the TRX walk-behind trencher line by Toro – the new TRX-250 and TRX-300, there were efficiency updates in several other areas.
Users will also enjoy a floating deck and single-point height of cut adjustment. Additionally, a two-wheel sulky rotates 360 degrees and simply folds away when not in use; no more attaching and removing when trailering.
With efficiency top of mind not only in product design, Toro is looking for contractors to beta test its Horizon™ app, designed to streamline and simplify operational challenges. Toro found that often landscaping is a “chaotic style business,” and Horizon is meant to address these issues. Whether it’s helping track crew and equipment, automating the billing system, or communicating notes/photos/scheduling and more, many productivity are features built into the single app.
The cloud-based app holds all important business information, while GPS technology enables remote job estimates, and geofencing allows tracking of crews and equipment. Once a crew uploads the software’s app onto their phones, they simply log in using a secure 4-digit PIN number and they’re ready to go. Horizon is also compatible with all brands of equipment, not just Toro.
