TR3® Rodeo

The Rolling Basket is an ideal option for those that need to repack the surface after grooming or to break up significant dirt clods. Most commonly those participating in speed events such as barrel racing, roping and other rodeo events find the benefits of this basket the most useful. The rolling basket stabilizes, breaks up clumps of footing, resets the arena below the surface and keeps the top few inches of footing loose to give horses the “grip” they need for speed.

Hydraulic scarifiers loosen the ground from 0-5″ with on-the-fly hydraulic depth control. These cast teeth penetrate the hardest of conditions and bolt-on tips keep maintenance costs low.

The TR3 has a significant ground engaging blade capable of moving a significant amount of material if needed. Not only that, it has an industry exclusive patent that enables the TR3’s leveling blade to “float”, when desired, to auto level the arena. In the floating position this blade will catch high areas and drop that material into lower areas automatically.

This rake is made of 3/4″ thick hardened steel for long life and is replaceable in one foot sections. When driving forward, the design of the rake effectively grooms the material, but does not over compact it, leaving an ideally prepared surface for rodeo horse arenas. The rake also enables the user to push backwards to move dirt into dug out roping boxes and jumps.

The wheels control the depth of the loosening action, create consistent level travel to eliminate wash boarding and eliminate gouging and stalling of the tractor while pushing backward by supporting the frame.

This product is designed for use with a tractor that has a rear 3-point lift connection and is built to ASAE category 2 standards. Additionally, it is quick hitch compatible which makes connecting the implement to the tractor faster, easier, and safer. ABI recommends the use of a quick hitch system not only for its speed and ease of use, but also for its increased operator safety during the connection and disconnection process. This product is quick hitch compatible, the quick hitch system itself (and required adapter bushings) can be purchased separately from your local tractor dealer.

The rail blade attaches by two bolts to the leveling blade. The shovel cuts into the built up material around the rail or wall of an arena, the lip of a driveway or infield lip and pulls the material into the leveling blade to be redistributed.
