Groundsmaster®
Contour™ Plus Family

There’s more than one way
to lower costs and raise productivity.

The Groundsmaster® Contour™ Plus Family.
Because one size doesn’t fit all your mowing needs.

Since 1973, Toro Groundsmasters have been proven on more of the world’s top golf courses,
delivering consistent, clean cuts and breathtaking roughs. But we’re not satisfied.
That’s why the new Groundsmasters are engineered with innovations like Sidewinder®
cutting units for precise trimming, CrossTrax® all-wheel drive for superior traction, and
SmartCool™ for unsurpassed cooling performance. No matter which Groundsmaster
you choose, you’ll get the legendary performance that makes this an unbeatable foursome.

Cutting edge
performance
runs in this family.

A cut above the rest.

Contour™ Plus free-floating cutting units

follow the ground on rolling terrain. Air inlet

pockets keep the grass standing tall for a

clean cut on every blade, and an anti-scalp

cup ensures the cutting unit is never

too close for comfort.

Wet grass has met its match.

Unleash the power and efficiency

of a Kubota® turbocharged, liquid

cooled, diesel engine on your rough.

With enough horsepower and torque

to handle the most demanding

mowing conditions, these engines
are almost unstoppable.

Down with downtime.

Routine service and maintenance just got easier.

With quick, tool-free access to regular service

points, and common parts across the Groundsmaster

line, your mowers will be back on the job faster.

Nonstop comfort.

The adjustable Air Ride seat (standard on

Groundsmaster 4500-D and 4700-D), power

steering and one-touch controls work together

to shift the comfort and productivity of

your operators into high gear.

Earns its stripes.

Get a picture-perfect cut every time. Heavy-duty

rollers create the beautiful striping appearance you

see on championship courses and sports fields.

Groundsmaster® 3500-D

The Toro Groundsmaster 3500-D
is small in size, and big on
performance and productivity.

Groundsmaster® 3500-d

• Sidewinder® cutting system

• Three 27” (69 cm) Contour™ Plus

free-floating cutting units with
rear rollers

The Groundsmaster 3500-D
effortlessly trims around bunkers,
trees, water hazards and
anything else in its way.

Meet the overachiever.

Its performance is way bigger than its size. The Toro Groundsmaster 3500-D
gives you the precision trimming you’d expect from a reel mower, with the
easy maintenance of a rotary mower, making it a smart addition to any
mowing fleet. Its full-time 3-wheel drive system senses slippage and
shifts the power to at least two wheels at all times, maintaining
traction under tough, wet
conditions. Now areas that
used to require two different
machines can be maintained
with one highly efficient
Groundsmaster.

It boldly goes where
no other riding mower can.

Talk about extending your reach.

The patented Sidewinder cutting system

on the Groundsmaster 3500-D slides the cutting

units from side to 1 cm) to trim hard-to-reach turf.

It also lets operators change tire tracking to reduce

turf compaction in areas where the same

patterns are mowed.

“e perfect size.

Why did Cassique on Kiawah Island
choose the new Groundsmaster
4300-D? Just reading the spec sheet
and taking a quick test drive on the
prototype was enough to convince
Club Superintendent Randall Glover
that the Groundsmaster 4300-D,
with its smaller 22” cutting units,
would be the perfect size to mow
Cassique’s hilly rough with thousands
of sharp undulations. According
to Glover, “The 4300-D has to be
the most versatile mower out there,
which is really important to us.”

a wide range of conditions, this blade is
provided as original equipment.

Angle Sail Blade A low lift blade

designed for thick grass and heavy
mowing.

Here’s the coolest advancement in our relentless

drive to end downtime. When things start to heat up

under the hood, our exclusive SmartCool™ system briefly

reverses the cooling fan and blasts chaff and debris from

the air intake screens. The result is nonstop productivity.

What more could you ask for?

mulching blade that also helps hide
clippings in the turf.
