Features
The Toro bi-directional impact absorption system was designed for an impact of 5 mph. The spring-loaded cylinder allows the deck to rotate upon impact. This rotating action absorbs the peak force experienced when an operator strikes an object, protecting the main deck and frame components so you have less down time and more productivity.
The deck gearboxes include an overrunning clutch that isolates the force from accidental blade impacts to keep the mower and tractor safe.
The Groundsmaster 1200 is not only a highly productive mower, it's also very versatile. Each deck features four mowing height adjustment points making it simple and quick to deliver the exact mowing height for superior conditions.
Ductile cast iron spindle housing is large in diameter [9 in. (229 mm) at the base] to dissipate impact loads. Dual tapered roller bearings last up to six times longer than ball bearings.
The two full width rollers on the front and rear of each deck help deliver an exceptional quality of cut. The front roller help reduce scalping in undulated terrain while the rear roller delivers the exceptional turf striping. Each roller includes heavy duty bearings featuring easy access grease points.
The Groundsmaster 1200 features a deck lift system allowing for the decks to be lifted from the turf while the PTO is engaged to quickly turn around without scuffing or transport over cart paths. This system helps keep the operator running at peak productivity.
The Groundsmaster 1200 wing decks fold up near vertical for a narrow 86" (218.4cm) transport width making it easy to get from site to site. Additionally, the transport wheels feature a torsion axle delivering a remarkably smooth ride making transport quick and comfortable.
