Frequently Asked Questions:
Question: Why do I
need a Track and Ring
Conditioner?
Answer: The System
Track and Ring Conditioner
does a two step process in
one step. Using chiseled
harrow tines, the
Conditioner breaks up
clumped and packed footings.
The second step is performed
simultaneously by the
leveling blade which follows
the tines and smoothes the
surface of a neat and even
footing.
Question: Why are the
tines even useful?
Answer: We use a
special "S" tine with a
chisel point for especially
hard surfaces. The use of
the tine is important not
only for of the breakup of
hard materials, but it also
helps to aerate the soil.
The tines are fully
adjustable because almost
every arena and track are
different. In addition, the
machine can be used for both
arena and track with minimal
changes to the machine
itself.
Question: Is the
blade adjustable?
Answer: The blade is
fully adjustable by both
pitch and angle. The angle
adjustment allows the blade
to be placed on an angle
which allows material to be
pulled away from the wall of
the arena or from the edge
of the track. This
adjustably makes for a very
flexible and convenient
tool.
The pitch is fully
adjustable from 90° vertical
to 180° horizontal.
Different angles allow the
user to control the amount
of material being moved. To
move material at once or to
fill in sunken areas, a
steeper angle is
recommended. A lesser angle
is recommended for general
maintenance.
Question: Is the
Track & Ring Conditioner
easy to mount on my tractor?
Answer: The System
Track & Ring Conditioner has
been designed to fit any
Class 1, 3 point hitch
tractor.
Question: How is the
Conditioner shipped?
Answer: The System
Track & Ring Conditioner is
shipped crated and boxed.
Easy to follow instructions
and a complete hardware
package allow anyone to
assemble it in less then an
hour.
Question: My arena is
really uneven, will the
System Track & Ring
Conditioner help?
Answer: Yes the first
couple of times you use the
Conditioner, you will have
to travel in a figure eight
pattern to move the material
from the high spots into all
of the low spots. Initially,
if the surface is really bad
it may take a while.
However, if done on a
regular schedule your
maintenance time will be cut
in half.
