Bunkers are hazards on a golf course. Despite this fact, now these are expected to be maintained to playing conditions. Many of the frequently performed bunker maintenance tasks such as hand raking, repairing washouts, removing debris, adjusting sand depth and trimming edges are labour-intensive. Using machines can condition bunkers much faster than manual operations.
The Sand Pro 2040Z mechanical rake is unlike anything else in the marketplace; a zero-turn mechanical groomer delivering unmatched maneuverability and productivity. This unique machine is a daily bunker rake that will reduce labor costs for both mechanical and hand raking of bunkers and infields. A brand new "flex" raking system with the patented "lift in turn" feature enables an operator to turn tightly in bunkers without leaving unraked teardrops or tire marks.
Unparalleled Maneuverability & Productivity
Zero-turn steering allows the Sand Pro 2040Z to groom many bunkers other mechanical groomers simply cannot access. This means you can groom more bunkers with less labor, allowing your staff to complete other tasks sooner.
Innovative Bunker Raking System
This unique 84-inch (213 cm) wide flex tooth rake features three reversible rubber trowels that reduce damage to bunker liners and edges. Each of the rake's three sections moves independently to follow bunker contours. The flex tooth rake has adjustment stops for pivot, rake pitch and "lift in turn" height.
"Lift In Turn"
This patented feature makes the inside flex tooth rake section lift in a tight turn preventing teardrop formation, leaving a uniform bunker surface.
Thumb-Activated Groomer
The rear attachment is easily operated through a thumb switch on the right hand control stick. The hydraulic lift system is safe and quick, allowing the operator to enter and exit bunkers quickly.
Fast Transport
The Sand Pro 2040Z transports at 12 mph (19.3 km/h), 20% faster than other Sand Pro models.
Reliable Engine
The Sand Pro 2040Z's twin cylinder, air-cooled Kawasaki® 12.2 hp (9.1 kW) gasoline engine is powerful enough to easily climb in and out of bunkers and quickly transport over hills without bogging down. The single stage cyclonic air filter keeps the engine running cleanly in the dustiest conditions.
Easy Access for Maintenance
The unitized transmission design consists of two independent unitized pump and wheel motor assemblies that minimize hydraulic lines and connections for reliable, low-maintenance performance.

It’s time to demand more from your bunker rake. With the exclusive Quick Attach System (QAS) offering tool-free, quick attachment change outs and over 25 valuable attachments, the Sand Pro 3040 and 5040 are versatile utility vehicles with as many uses outside the bunker as in it. The Sand Pro 5040’s optional front QAS provides added flexibility and exclusive steerable front attachments for surgical precision. The Toro Sand Pro keeps bunkers in tournament condition every day.
Power Packed Engines
The trusted Vanguard® engine is fuel efficient, runs cooler and features a fully pressurized oil lubrication system for longer life.
3WD Series/Parallel™ Traction Drive
The 3WD Series/Parallel™ traction drive improves traction in wet or heavy working conditions to get the job completed quickly. In traditional 3WD units all traction effort is lost as soon as one wheel slips. Series/Parallel™ ensures that you always have tractive effort with at least one wheel to keep your unit from getting stuck and losing precious time.
Ease of Use
Easy to use and adapt to the next task. Having the right tool for the job increases the effectiveness of your crew and the efficiency of your operation. Attachments are designed to minimize operator influence to achieve the same result, regardless of whether a new or veteran employee performed the task.
Front Manual Blade
Finger tip operation (no overhead bar), paired handle/foot pedal and torsion bar to improve down pressure provide level/consistent contouring in difficult areas. Quick-up latch locks blade in transport position between uses to improve operator ease of use.
Maneuverable Steering
For operator ease of use, and to improve the effectiveness of the steerable front attachments, hydraulic power steering is now available on the 5040 and a rugged gear drive system on the 3040. Both designs are now environmentally sealed to ensure long life and reduced maintenance.
Maintenance Friendly Layout
The new unit was designed with the mechanic in mind, to reduce, simplify, and increase access to all scheduled maintenance. The majority of scheduled maintenance projects can be accessed by lifting the operator seat. For increased access, the side and center quarter panels can be taken off by removing just a few bolts.
Quick Attach System™ (QAS)
With the Quick Attach System™ (QAS), anyone can switch from one attachment to another in less than a minute, with no tools required! Match the machine to the environment to get your fields back into playing condition The QAS allows you to do more with less, and get the job done faster. Rear QAS is standard on the Sand Pro® 3040 and 5040, front QAS™ is optional on the Sand Pro® 5040.
Mid-Mount System
With the Mid-mount system, a flex mounted toolbar can be adjusted to flex backwards when it comes in contact with anything from rocks or other rigid objects to prevent gouging or wash boarding. Multiple locking depth settings to ensure consistent depth of scarification from day to day or between operators. A mid-mount leveling system is also available to make quick work of the difficult projects like around dugouts or player positions.
Quick Connect Hydraulics
Quick connect hydraulics make it simple to connect or disconnect any of the powered attachments in under a minute. This eliminates the need for dedicated equipment.

In traditional 3WD units all traction effort is lost as soon as one wheel slips. Series/Parallel™ ensures that you always have tractive effort with at least one wheel to keep your unit from getting stuck and losing precious time.
Steerable Front Attachments
Steerable front attachments on the Sand Pro® 5040 give operators the precision never before offered in this industry. The newly designed Flex Blade is adjustable to different environments (wet/dry), scarify, level and smooth in the same pass. Improve the operators ability to direct the attachment into and out of tight areas, like around dugouts or base path contours. Hydraulic float position and steerable blade reduces operator influence and the potential for damage. Combined, these features improve the consistency between fields, operators, and weather conditions.
