The 760 Litterkat performs one of the most basic yet important maintenance needs for your synthetic turf. The important role the LitterKat performs is removing unwanted debris. Removal of debris that is both natural and human-produced. The 760 LitterKat Synthetic Sports Turf Debris Collector with Magnet accomplishes this needed turf maintenance procedure.
What Debris Does The 760 LitterKat Sweep Up?
Often times athletes bring all sorts of unwanted debris material. In addition to athletes, let us not forget the other groups who use the field. One group that spends a tremendous amount of time on the field is the marching band. Band members bring their own set of debris onto the field such as bobby pins, musical instruments, and fantastic uniforms.
In addition to the human debris deposits, fields must battle mother nature. Leaves, twigs, and sticks somehow find the turf as a resting place. The lowest form of human is one who does not remove their dogs’ fecal deposits. As efficient of a debris removal machine is, the 760 LitterKat will not pick up unwanted dog piles but will pick up the sticks a dog might leave behind.
