TurfChek II - Rough Grass Height Cut Gauge
|
The Turfchek II is a height of cut gauge designed for taller grass to determine the actual mowing height, right in the field. The unit is made of high impact plastic and can tell grass height in inches or millimeters. Simply push the two outside teeth into the soil until the serrated teeth at the bottom of the unit come in firm contact with the soil. Look at the gauge and you can see the actual cutting height of the grass as well as the quality of cut. This method will measure the actual height of the turfgrass so you can compare it with mower bench settings. The inch side of the Turfchek II shows height of cut in 1/4 inch increments from 1/2 inch to 2 1.2 inch and then 1/2 inch increments from 2 1/2 inch to 5 1/2 inches tall. The Millimeter side of the Turfchek II shows height of cut in 6 millimeter increments from 6 mm to 60 mm inch and then 12 mm increments from 60 mm to 132 millimeters tall. The "quality" of cut may also be inspected by comparing the turf over the viewing plane of the gauge. It is ideal for inspecting green collars, fairways, intermediate roughs and roughs. It is also ideal for measuring athletic fields, infields and outfields as well as soccer and lacrosse. Also see our Height of Cut Prism Gauge The TurfChek II gauge was invented by Joe Chek, longtime engineer for the Toro company and World War II veteran who passed away in 2011. Joe's family has allowed us to continue to use his name on the gauge in recognition for the many, many years he served the turfgrass industry. |
