Toro introduced several new pieces of outdoor power equipment for landscape contractors at Equip Expo 2022 in Louisville, Ky.
“We’re excited to introduce an impressive lineup of battery- and gas-powered tools that will immediately improve productivity for professional landscape contractors,” said Chris Vogtman, director of marketing at Toro. “Our Revolution series of handheld tools increase our battery offerings and integrate with our powerful Flex-Force Power System, while our new Z Master 2000 in both gas and battery options offers an impressive, high-quality cut. Operators can also now get additional horsepower with the new Grandstand HDX, a high-powered version of our popular stand-on commercial mower. Best of all, the new equipment comes Horizon360 capable, which is a real advantage for creating business efficiencies and managing fleets.”
60V Max Revolution Series handheld tools
Designed with input from professional landscape contractors, the new 60V Max Revolution Series Handheld tools were built to perform in demanding work conditions and environments all day long. Powered by Toro’s Flex-Force Power System, the new line includes a dual-battery backpack that can hold two 10 Ah batteries — which is designed for comfort and available as a power source for the leaf blower or string and hedge trimmers to keep jobs moving all day.
Operators can easily swap batteries out, so when one battery is done, the workday doesn’t have to be. Outpacing the charging speed of larger, lower voltage batteries, the 60V power comes to you fast — taking just 50 minutes to fully charge our largest battery in the all-new six-pod rapid charger. Plus, the batteries are versatile, powering both Revolution Series handheld tools and the Toro 60V Max 21” Heavy Duty mower.
New SprayMaster
Toro’s new stand-on spreader sprayers makes treating turf a whole lot easier. The SprayMaster features enhanced center of gravity tanks for less turf tear, an industry-first flip up hopper for ease of maintenance and materials management, and larger wheels for a more comfortable ride. Exclusive patented caster lock remains for straight-line tracking and precision spreading and spraying.
The new SprayMaster 60, SprayMaster 40 and SprayMaster 20 models feature smart enhancements for increased comfort and usability and decreased maintenance. Improved stability and balance translate to better chemical application at higher machine speed, while larger 24-inch tires on the 60 and 40 models, and 22-inch tires on the SprayMaster 20 model mean a smoother ride and better visibility.
New Z Master 2000
With a rugged frame and deck modeled after the award-winning Z Master 4000, the new Z Master 2000 delivers high-quality performance. Its beefy Turbo Force deck looks and acts tough — the new Z Master 2000 will cut through the toughest elements. The Turbo Force deck is a 50 KSI 7-gauge high-strength steel deck, complemented with an extra-strength tubular chassis and durably rugged I-beam front-end. Add on Toro’s patented MyRide suspension system for go-all-day comfort.
New Z Master 2000 Revolution
Toro introduced its Z Master 4000 Revolution zero-turn mower in 2021. Now, professional landscape contractors looking for more heavy-duty, customizable battery-power mowing options can turn to the new Z Master 2000 Revolution zero-turn mower. With a sharp look and increased battery pack versatility, operators can customize the power of the new 2000 Revolution based on mowing conditions.
The Z Master 2000 Revolution is built on Toro’s commercial-grade Z Master 2000 Series frame and legendary Turbo Force deck. The newest member of the Toro Z Master Revolution family offers robust battery-powered go-all-day comfort with Toro’s patented MyRide suspension system. The suspended operator platform and easy to adjust, personalized ride settings maximize comfort, and every Revolution machine is equipped with patent-pending software in the controls that enables smooth operation.
The Revolution Series mowers are powered by Toro’s HyperCell Power System, which delivers all-day power and reliability. The Battery Management System (BMS) allows for impressive run times and quick charging to maximize productivity. HyperCell is built to run cooler than other power systems, so it can last as long as the sunlight. Ultimately, operators gain efficiencies, eliminate engine exhaust emissions, and can complete more jobs with less hassle.
GrandStand HDX
The new Toro GrandStand HDX offers the same ride you’ve come to trust with its space-saving, flip-up platform — now with more power from the massive 31 hp Kawasaki or 37-hp. Vanguard engine.
Increased efficiency is at your fingertips with ground speeds up to 12 mph and 52-inch, 60-inch, and 72-inch deck options. Not only do these machines have the horsepower to bull through tough conditions, but they also have the size and durability to ensure operator comfort day in and day out.
The Toro GrandStand HDX combines the speed and comfort of a zero-turn rider with the on-and-off ease of a wide area walk-behind — for a fast and maneuverable experience.
Horizon360
The best thing about the new Toro mowers is that they all come Horizon360 capable. Toro’s business software for landscape contractors drives more profits and increases business efficiency and effectiveness. New features recently introduced to the business software suite help drive more profits for professional landscape contractors. A customer relationship management tool allows contractors to automate client communications, while a new online payment feature makes invoicing a breeze.
New this year is free-to-use Horizon360 Connect that seamlessly connects to the Revolution Series of zero turn products to allow for equipment tracking and enhanced fleet and maintenance management.
