SportPro M5 – Tractor horse arena drag for sand footing

The SportPro M5 – Premier Equestrian Edition was designed with facility owners, managers, trainers, and the horses they care for at the forefront. We have a configuration to get the results you require—no matter what kind of synthetic additives you’re working with. The M5 comes fitted with a patent pending swivel hitch that precisely follows the turns of the tractor around jumps and rails, but straightens itself before locking when lifted. This auto-locking swivel hitch also enhances safety and reduces hassle when pulling in and out of the arena. Available in two configuration widths, the M5 is built with extended space between each component from front to back; this innovative setup maximizes the flow of footing material so you can be sure you’re getting the comprehensive blending needed for daily maintenance as well as periodic re-mixing. 67.5" and 83.5" Widths. 60-month Limited Warranty

Your Ideal Footing Starts Here

Each ground-engaging component is independently adjustable so you can set your implement to perfectly groom your specific arena. Once you have the groomer configured for everyday use for your arena, lock the tool in place, so you can count on consistent, repeatable results, no matter who's in the driver's seat. Then, adjust the components as needed into an active grooming position when you need to re-mix the additives in your footing or change the surface tension for conditioning.

Better Flow Means Better Footing

The SportPro is built with extended space between each component from front to back to maximize the flow of footing material so you can be sure you’re getting the comprehensive blending, with every pass. The component spacing and length increases maneuverability, so you can groom your entire arena surface faster than ever before, while significantly elevating the overall quality of the arena footing.

Intentionally Crafted With You in Mind

The tough steel frame is built without a shell for increased visibility and to make it easier to reach the individual components for any needed adjustments or upkeep. The way the majority of groomers on the market are built puts the brunt of the force on the adjustment linkages of the grooming components, which makes them wear down faster. Our engineers decided to eliminate this unnecessary wear on the implement by building the stress points into the high quality rugged steel frame.

Self-centering, Locking Swivel Hitch

Let the Groomer do the Work 

The SportPro M5 comes fitted with a patent pending swivel hitch that precisely follows the turns of the tractor around jumps and rails, and straightens itself before locking when lifted. This self-locking swivel hitch enhances safety and reduces hassle when pulling in and out of the arenas, all without having to stop and get off the tractor.

SportPro-M5-3-pt-s-tines-knockout

Choose Between Available Primary Components

S-Tines: A Safer Way to Go Deeper

If you have a limited amount of water in your arena or your additives require frequent mixing, the S-tines will provide holistic blending for your everyday grooming. The Sport Pro M5’s danish-styled S-tines act intuitively in synthetic footing; their springy give loosens and mixes material without causing damage to the base. S-Tines offer a safer way to go deeper, pulling up small fines and fibers that have settled to the bottom. S-tines are also suited for self-amending or self-installing additional materials, or fibers.

SportPro-M5-3-pt-scarifiers-knockout

Scarifiers: Eliminate Unwanted Compaction

Compacted arenas with high clay will benefit from the scarifiers as the primary component. In contrast to the S-tines, scarifiers are rigid by design, giving them an enhanced ability to loosen hard, compacted materials. For arenas that would benefit from the capabilities of both, the SportPro groomer allows the operator a toolless swap out of the S-tines and scarifiers.

SportPro-M5-3-pt-coil-tines-knockout

Coil Tines

More Contact Points for Better Blending

The SportPro M5 has two offset rows of coil tines, and each tine has two contact points instead of one. In their passive position, this setup maximizes the coil tines ability to fill in grooves and press down large fibers that have risen to the top. In the active position, the coil tines aerate, mix, and level the arena surface.

SportPro-M5-3-pt-smoothing-bar-knockout

Smoothing Bar

Level Your Footing Without Plugging Up

The smoothing bar is adjustable in quarter inch increments for maximum precision adjustment. The smoothing bar allows for some build up to accumulate so it can level out any excess material while filling remaining lines or grooves. The cylinder shape of the smoothing bar allows material to flow under as well as over—creating a smoothing effect under the bar, and preventing excess material from plugging up.

SportPro-M5-3-pt-twisted-rod-roller-knockout

Choose Between Single Roller or Dual Rollers

Twisted Rod Roller: A Signature Finish, Every Time

The twisted rod design of the SportPro roller maximizes packing and prevents trailing so you can count on an elegant finish over your arena surface. One of the key benefits of the twisted rods is constant contact with the surface, which minimizes bouncing while grooming.

SportPro-M5-3-pt-front-roller-knockout

Optional Front Roller: Additional Blending and Base Protection

If you’re looking for an additional level of gauge security and consistency, you can choose to add the optional front roller. With a second roller, you’ve established a ground plane between the front and rear rollers so you can drop and groom without worrying about catching on your base.

SportPro-M1-pitch-adjustment-knockout

Fully Adjustable Components

Your Arena, Your Way 

Each ground-engaging component on a SportPro M5 groomer is independently adjustable so you can configure your implement to perfectly groom your specific arena and achieve your footing performance expectations, this includes daily maintenance as well as periodic re-mixing. With its easy adjustment capabilities, you can change the surface tension in your arena for different disciplines and for conditioning. Once you have the groomer configured for everyday use for your arena, lock the tool in place, so you can count on consistent, repeatable results, no matter who’s in the driver’s seat. Then, adjust the components as needed into an active grooming position when you need to remix the additives in your footing or change the surface tension for conditioning.
