B. Hayman Company submitted the low bid on item 2. A demonstr,ation 'of the two greens
mowers bid was requested. City staff present at the demonstration were the Parks
Superintendent, Golf Course Supervisor and Purchasing Agent.
The Tor.o "Greensmaster 3" mower was found to have features more advantageous to the City.
The three mowing reels are located in front of the operator where on the Jacobsen one reel
is behind the operator. The operator should be able to see the reels to insure they
are operating properly. The Toro has as standard equipment a 9rooved roller to control
height of cut and comb to control grain and thatch. These items are extra on the
Jacobsen. To order these items for the three reels would cost $369.68 for each mower.
The Toro has an improved hydraulic system which uses less sequence valves, piping and
hosing. Maintenance costs are less on this particular system. it is therefore recommended
that the Toro greens mowers be purchased.
