Hey Rob, great videos fixing turf reel equipment. A big help. Question: I have a similar used Toro Greensmaster 3000 with 4800 hours still working. How much would you purchase one on the used market? And what is your “so many hours” mark on a similar toro 3000 where you would purchase or move on from your maintenance perspective?
The 3000's are pretty much becoming extinct in the golf world. At the higher end courses anyway. The last course I was at used them a lot. Honestly 4800 hours is really high to sell it to a course but you may find someone to buy it outside of golf. I know a guy who buys all used golf equipment. The greens master with that many hours isn't going to go for much. I don't know what year yours is but I'm going to assume its over 10 years old. Ive seen those mowers sell for like 500 - 800 bucks, Which is sad when you think about how much the hydraulic pump alone is worth. Its almost better to sell it in parts you'd make more. The Wheel motors go for a few hundred each also.
Well done and thank you for a great explanation
Hella informational! Exactly what I was scouring the internet for! Appreciate ya man thanks!!
