The same ground-breaking technology that allowed
the ProCore 648 to revolutionize greens aeration is
now available for large-area applications in the new
ProCore 864 and 1298. Aerate fairways and sports fields
in efficient 64" (162.9 cm) and 98" (248.9 cm) widths
with the smooth operation and precision performance
you demand. You’ve never used a tractor-mounted
aerator quite like it. And once you try it, you’ll
never go back.

Innovation
New and improved to the core.
The precision-balanced coring head eliminates hopping,
rocking and unnecessary vibration. This exclusive system
makes the ProCore 864 and 1298 the smoothest large-area
aerators on the market.

Aerate faster.
When it comes to aeration projects,
productivity is the key. That’s why
Toro offers two ProCore large area
aerator models designed to get the
job done faster. The ProCore 864
features a 64" (162.6 cm) coring
width that can aerate up to 1.5 acres
per hour. The ProCore 1298 can
aerate up to 2.3 acres per hour with a
98" (248.9 cm) coring width and dual
coring heads that articulate to follow
undulations in the ground.
The smooth operation of the coring
head allows the operator to keep the
ProCore running even in the raised
position, increasing productivity
through turnarounds. The three point
mount and PTO drive enables easy
setup and operation. Durability is
second to none with reinforced belt
drives, an oversized gear box and an
impact resistance system that saves
wear and tear on the aerator and
operator, even in the most challenging
conditions.
A high gear ratio makes depth
control simple and precise.
Custom stands make storage
and set up fast, safe and
convenient.
The ProCore 864 and
1298 are designed
to accommodate
Toro’s proven Titan
Tines. Choose from a
wide variety of sizes
and styles to fit any
aeration application.

Accessories

quality with each pull. A windrow kit is also available for the ProCore
®
864 for easy cleanup.
