With the new Hunter Jupiter ATI, we get a triple sharpened, re-set and serviced ready to go back out on the course completed in one day. It’s made a huge difference.
Any resort/club whether similar in size and standing to the Belfry or not, will benefit from having a grinder on site. The cost savings alone from reduced downtime and utilising in-house engineers to conduct repairs and general maintenance on the site will justify the investment. To have a machine that grinds in situ offers even greater time and costs savings.
We replaced our old grinder with the Jupiter ATI three years ago. The Jupiter gives us both options of relief and spin grinding and produces a superb finish. The grinder is quick, powerful and easy to use.
We bought the Jupiter, over the next few winters, we did thousands of inches of grinding. The grinder then became an integral part of the business. It built our business.
It can be a time consuming job to strip each mower to re-grind blades, we are constantly looking at ways to improve the turnaround time in the workshop. The Jupiter allows us to load the whole mower into the grinder without dismantling it. The result is that downtime has been reduced by a third. The new grinder has had a direct beneficial impact on the overall performance of our operation. Coupled with the Amazon bottom blade grinder it has contributed to a substantial improvement in costs, time management and efficiency.
To achieve the perfect grass you have to apply a little more effort, dedication and commitment. Relief grinding will keep your units sharp four times longer than spin grinding alone.
