SMITHCO V-STAR
The SMITHCO V-STAR is a field developed tool designed to condition the surface of putting
greens, lawn bowling greens, and tee boxes.
The V-STAR is built of the finest and heaviest material utilized on each part to insure longevity.
The frame is fabricated out of ten gauge steel to provide weight to the machine and prevent
warping. The steering has been especially engineered for operator comfort to alleviate fatigue
during prolonged use.
Before placing the V-STAR into service it must be serviced.
Operator familiarization should be conducted before use of the V-STAR on the greens. Improper
handling of the V-STAR could cause damage to the turf. Read Operator’s Manual before using
this unit on the greens.
Each Golf Course Superintendent should plan a cutting pattern of his greens.
The V-STAR should be lubricated frequently with any grade of machine oil at all moving joints,
and the bearings that are furnished with grease fittings should be greased with any good grade
Lithium or equivalent water repellent grease. The transaxle uses 3w nondetergent oil.
Good maintenance and regular servicing will insure that longevity of your SMITHCO V-STAR.
Support is readily available from your local distributor or
