Turfchek II
Rough Grass Height Cut Gauge
The Turfchek II is a height of cut gauge designed for taller grass
to determine the actual mowing height, right in the field. The unit
is made of high impact plastic and can tell grass height in inches
or millimeters. Simply push the two outside teeth into the soil until
the serrated teeth at the bottom of the unit come in firm contact
with the soil. Look at the gauge and you can see the actual
cutting height of the grass as well as the quality of cut.
This method will measure the actual height of the turfgrass so
you can compare it with mower bench settings.
The inch side of the Turfchek II shows height of cut in 1/4 inch
increments from 1/2 inch to 2 1.2 inch and then 1/2 inch
increments from 2 1/2 inch
to 5 1/2 inches tall. The
Millimeter side (Optional)
of the Turfchek II shows height of cut in 6 millimeter
increments from 6 mm to 60 mm inch and then 12 mm
increments from 60 mm to 132 millimeters tall.
The "quality" of cut may also be inspected by comparing
the turf over the viewing plane of the gauge. It is ideal for
inspecting green collars, fairways, intermediate roughs and
roughs. It is also ideal for measuring athletic fields, infields
and outfields as well as soccer and lacrosse.
