Toro adds line of concrete and masonry equipment

April 2, 2013 – Toro has introduced its new
line of specialized concrete and masonry equipment. Toro's new line was
developed through the company's acquisition of products from Stone Construction
Equipment, Inc., and utilizes trusted designs and quality to offer
concrete mixers, mortar mixers, power trowels, concrete vibrators, screeds and
concrete working tools. These new products join Toro's expanded product
offerings to the construction and rental industries.

“Toro continues to
look for ways to expand its product lines for professional contractors and
rental operations,” explains Anna Foster, rental product marketing manager for
Toro. “Through recent acquisitions, we are able to deliver even more quality
products with the service and parts support that customers expect from Toro.”

Concrete Mixers
With a batch capacity range of 2-12 cu. ft., Toro's extensive line of concrete
mixers offers a model for every application.
From the portable electric models, like the CM-250E, to a heavy-duty diesel
CM-1258Y, there are eight Toro concrete mixers to choose from. Convenient
operator features, such as the easy-access cowl design and heavy-duty paddles,
axles, gear rings, and more ensure lasting durability on all concrete mixers.
Each model is supported with a heavy-duty frame and exclusive features for
improved job-site productivity and enhanced operator control.

Mortar Mixers
Toro has nine models of mortar mixers with a batch capacity range of 6-12 cu.
ft., to fit every mixing need. From the large multi-point bag splitter to the
drum latch that can be operated with a knee, Toro mortar mixers raise the bar
for ease of use. The mortar mixer line-up offers both gas and electric models
for any job. The Toro MMX mixer offers a heavy-duty design with patented
features that create more paddle contact with the mortar for a faster, higher
quality result.

Power Trowels
Toro power trowels feature contoured adjustable handles and a rotating
stabilizing ring for precise handling that will deliver a smooth concrete
finish. There are four models to choose from and each comes equipped with a
Honda engine. The Toro Dyna-Clutch safety feature is incorporated into each
unit and will stop the blade without shutting down the engine. The PT-36PP and
PT-46PP feature Toro's patented Pro-Pitch blade adjustment system that provides
smooth, quick pitch changes to ensure blades are at the optimal angle for a
perfect finish.

MB-1600 Mud
Buggy
The Toro MB-1600 Mud Buggy offers versatility and flexibility to any task. Its
compact size and maneuverability allow the operator to dump material in tough
to reach areas, and its capacity to hold up to 16 cubic-feet of material and
travels up to 7 mph to increase productivity. The patented operator platform,
featuring an oversized brake pedal and dual-action dump pedal that returns the
tub to hauling position, improves safety and efficiency by allowing the
operator to keep their hands on the operating bar.

Concrete
Vibrators
Powerful and lightweight, perfect to tackle smaller jobs,
Toro concrete vibrators feature a quick-connect system that provides fast and
easy flex-shaft changeability. With five models to choose from, operators can
select electric handheld or gas-powered backpack models. Also, Toro offers a
variety of flex-shaft and assembly head options to help contractors find the
right tool to deliver a smooth concrete finish.

Screeds
Toro offers four models of finishing screeds for low slump and high slump
applications. With a beam length range of 4-30 ft., each model has an
adjustable handle and is equipped with a Honda engine. The VS-70 and VS-80 have
a patented equilateral triangle bar that enables the operator to cut,
consolidate, compact, and smooth concrete without build-up. These screeds are
designed for superior performance in low slump, stiff concrete applications,
and feature a T-bar handle to enhance operator control and maneuverability. The
VS-400 and VS-800 models easily clamp to 2” x 6” or 2” x 8” beams to offer
heavy-duty performance to consolidate concrete surfaces.
