JOKER XL SPORTSFIELD HARROW
SPECIALLY ENGINEERED FOR GOLF GREENS
The ideal machine for the upkeep of your fairways, primary roughs, etc.
The ideal machine for the upkeep of your fairways, primary roughs, etc.
The articulated Joker has been engineered for racetrack managers and greenkeepers who manage their lawns without pesticides.
Highly valued for its versatility, it can be used to service racetracks, as well as golf courses (fairways, primary roughs or short roughs mowed to about 10 cm).
With an operating width of 3.60 meters to 4.60 meters, the machine can be fitted with a seeder to reseed needed areas, or for other additional options.
Whether it be for dethatching, dealing with worm castings or re-leveling the soil, the Joker will prove an asset in your daily operations.
Specifically developed for golf courses and horse-racing tracks, this Joker features three independent rakes.
Each rake adapts perfectly to the contours of the ground.
MECHANICAL WEED CONTROL
Pulls out moss, thatch, and intrusive low-rooting weeds.
The tines cut through the leaves of troublesome deep-rooted vegetation, such as herbaceous plants or dandelions, thereby weakening them. New weed growth is limited.
Breaks up worm castings without stripping off any plant material.
Thanks to the height-adjustable rake, the tines can be calibrated to graze the surface without pressing down on the soil.
The tines’ forward/backward movement displaces material restoring evenness to the soil.
With the Joker, you can realign the grass blades upright before mowing, so you get an even cut.
Knocks off the dew in order to curb disease development and fungus growth.
This operation also ensures an improved game experience, as the presence of water retards a ball’s movement.
Pneumatic Seeder
Capacity: 120 or 300 liters
Power supply: 12 V
The articulated Joker can be fitted with a pneumatic seeder for reseeding operations over a width of 3.60 or 4.60 meters, guaranteeing outstanding yields.
When the seeder is activated, the fan blasts the seeds through the tubes to the diffusers, distributing the seeds uniformly.
The seed is then mixed into the soil by the tines’ movement, ensuring optimal lawn development.

Take a look at the testimonial of Philippe Foucher, director of the Fédération Régionale des Courses Anjou-Maine.
Pierre-Yves Raoult, head of the parks and gardens division, in charge of the golf course of the city of Chalon-sur-Saône
With its 18 holes, 6 practice holes, a driving range and a putting green, the municipal golf course of Chalon-sur-Saône (France, 71) had a major problem: the presence of worm castings.
“Starting each October, especially when humidity levels start rising, all of our fairways become overrun with worm casts. This is really not the ideal situation for the game and the turf!
We had tested different solutions. But during a demonstration day, we were blown away by the performance of the ‘Joker’ harrow.
Given the excellent quality/price ratio and the minimal maintenance, we said to ourselves, ‘Why not use it on our course?’ And that’s exactly what we did.
The result: We are very satisfied with it! We even recommend it for the maintenance of sports grounds (rugby, soccer, etc.). In addition, beyond the fact of ‘pulverizing’ the castings, this 4m-wide rake allows for light turf scarification. It will also nicely prepare the soil before seeding; the ground is ‘clawed’ so to speak.
Some interesting options are also available, such as the broom that can be secured behind the rake. It redistributes the castings for a perfectly flat surface. We also use the rake with the weed control assembly to service our sanded walkways, while protecting the soil from damage.
Last but not least, I also find the accessory storage rack, offered by Hege, convenient for storing the brushes, the broom…”
