The TR3’s & SR3’s PATENTED 3-IN-ONE DESIGN pairs scarifiers and a finish rake—both set at the optimum angle for controlled results—with an auto-leveling blade. Used together, the three ground contact points simultaneously loosen, level, and rake the ground to produce consistent results across a variety of applications and materials. The design of the TR3 inspired the development of the Command Series line of products for skid steer and tractor, as well as countless other innovations at ABI!

INNOVATION FROM THE START

KEVIN KEIGLEY, ABI’s founding President, has decades of experience in the commercial contracting and landscaping industries. With 8 patents to his name and thousands of his tools sold, he is a preeminent inventor and innovator in the attachment market. He uses the tools he builds and builds the tools he’d want to use, giving him valuable insight into what innovations increase our customers' profitability and efficiency.

AT ABI, WE BUILD TOOLS WE WANT TO USE: Tools designed to make your work more efficient and effective.

Tools designed to be easy to maintain.

Tools that will last years and years.

TOOLS THAT WORK HARD, EVERY DAY.

At ABI, we set out to re-imagine what the HARDEST-WORKING, LONGEST-LASTING, & MOST-EFFICIENT CONTRACTOR TOOLS should be able to do.

From decades of experience in the ground prep industry, we know which jobs are hardest to get done right, which jobs consume the most time, and which jobs our competitors avoid (because they can't make a profit on them). Then we made the tools to accomplish these hard jobs quicker, with fewer men, leading to greater profits and more jobs worth taking.

THE COMMAND SERIES LINE OF CONTRACTOR EQUIPMENT makes the even toughest work easier and more profitable.

The SR3’s industry-exclusive PATENTED LEVELING BLADE WITH ROCK TEETH floats to automatically level high & low areas and sifts out small rocks and debris with ease. In the floating position it will catch high areas and drop material into lower areas automatically. If the area is already level it will help to maintain a perfect grade while raking & sifting.

The HYDRAULIC SCARIFYING TEETH loosen the ground up to seven inches deep! Adjustable on the fly, it’s never been easier to quickly rip through an area of hardpan or heavy compaction and readjust as soon as the tool passes into softer soil. The heavy unit weight and ground-entry angle enables this tool’s teeth to penetrate even the hardest conditions.

The ¾"-thick hardened-steel FINISH RAKE is crafted for long life and is replaceable in one foot sections. Beyond pulverizing clumps of material and leaving a beautifully smooth signature finish, the finish rake also enables the user to move dirt like a mini dozer, rip out vegetation (even against a tight edge), move material to fill in washouts, plane rough ground (keeping a consistent angle with the float wheels), and remove saplings and other overgrowth!

Invented and tested by landscape contractors to be the perfect combination of finesse & speed, power & precision.

THE PATENT-PENDING SR3 IS THE KEY TO INCREASED PROFITS AND WINNING BIDS Designed to be the centerpiece of any contractor’s all-terrain arsenal, the SR3 is a workaholic. It’s designed to do the job of many tools, allowing smaller crews to finish more work. Built to be used all day, every day, the SR3 is the ideal investment: it’s a purchase that will work hard with little service, and one that will save its owner time and make more money!

THE SR3: A NEW STANDARD IN VERSATILITY AND EFFICIENCY

▷Heavy-duty foam-filled FLOAT & GAUGE WHEELS never go flat and feature extreme-duty spindles and replaceable hubs and bearings. These wheels gauge the depth of the loosening and raking and also enable the user to place the skid steer arms in "float." By maintaining the SR3's ground contact while traveling over rough terrain, this wheel-supported floating action enables the tool to operate at the ideal pitch to simultaneously grade, loosen, and rake the soil. This capability makes the perfect seedbed possible with minimal skill on even less-than-ideal rough terrain!

Less guesswork & maintenance...

MORE PROFITABILITY!

HOW THE INNOVATIVE DESIGN OF THE SR3 GIVES IT THE COMPETITIVE EDGE

READY TO WORK WHEN YOU ARE

Unlike hydraulic power rakes, the SR3 tackles any job with minimal maintenance:

WIN MORE BIDS AND PROFIT ON HARDER JOBS WITH THE SR3! 1. SAVE TIME: the SR3 is 3 tools in one!

With an easy-to-set depth control in the gauge and float wheels, any operator can quickly clear, grade, and finish the toughest of jobs. Sift out rocks, level, and loosen when pulling the SR3; push large amounts of material and feather loose soil up against an edge when pushing forward!

2. LESS DOWNTIME AND LESS HANDWORK:The ability of the SR3 to finish a job from land-clearing to a seed-ready finish drastically reduces time spent changing tools, unloading trailers, reconnecting hydraulics, and more. Its ability to tackle every job from spreading large mounds of topsoil & removing debris to feathering against a tight edge greatly reduces the need for other tools and handwork. Watch your profits soar: complete more jobs each day with fewer staff on site!

3. ANY CREW CAN TACKLE HARD WORK:Matchless in the landscape contracting industry, the float & gauge wheels on the SR3 let any operator achieve quick, easy, and professional results. Furthermore, the low profile design was engineered to provide maximum visibility (minimizing guess-work). Assign any crew with confidence!

NO HYDRAULIC & ROTARY COMPONENTS The SR3 has minimal moving parts, relying on simple controls and inspired design to work hard, every day. By utilizing gravity, leverage, and our patented components (rather than rotary tools) the SR3 spends more time in the field and less time getting repaired!

EXTREME-DUTY DESIGN The SR3's design allows it to accomplish a full range of tasks no other single tool can do. From deep ripping to fine-finishing, from extreme undergrowth clearing to seed-bed prep, the SR3 has a foot up on the competition!

FULLY-WELDED FRAME Some would say we overbuilt our Command Series attachments, but we wanted to build tools that could utilize every bit of power your skid steer offers. From clearing debris to breaking the driest hardpan, our attachments are built to be worked hard.

The SCARIFYING TEETH are adjustable to loosen the ground up to five inches deep! The heavy unit weight and ground-entry angle enables this tool’s teeth to penetrate even the hardest conditions. The stabilizing wheels support the tool to gauge penetration depth and to mitigate undulations. Hydraulic scarifying teeth may be optionally added at the time of purchase or aftermarket for on-the-fly depth adjustment!

The ¾"-thick hardened-steel FINISH RAKE is crafted for long life and is replaceable in one foot sections. Beyond pulverizing clumps of material and leaving a beautifully smooth signature finish, the finish rake also enables the user to push backward to move dirt like a mini dozer into low areas, rip out vegetation, move material to fill in washouts, and accomplish other land clearing jobs.

A PATENT-PENDING INNOVATIVE DESIGN PROVIDES UNPARALLELED PRECISION & SPEED:

IN AN INDUSTRY WHERE TIME IS MONEY, THE SR2 EXCELS AT EFFICIENCY. It’s a pro at clearing and prepping tight spaces, edging a building before seeding, and ripping up weeds and old turf around obstacles (like wells, sidewalks, and landscaping, and more)! Beyond that, the I-beam construction, thick hardened-steel finish rake, and cast scarifiers don’t pull any punches when it comes to tough roots, lifting out rocks, or clearing debris and overgrown land. When you give your operator so many tools in such a nimble, easy-to-use package, be prepared to see your on-site time plummet, allowing you to finish more jobs quicker and more effectively!

THE SR2 IS THE MASTER OF ELIMINATION You won't find a scarifier rake that’s stronger, more nimble, or more effective at eliminating hand work than then SR2.

Heavy-duty foam-filled FLOAT & GAUGE WHEELS never go flat and feature extreme-duty spindles and replaceable hubs and bearings. These wheels gauge the depth of the loosening and raking, and also enable the user to place the skid steer arms in "float." By maintaining the SR2's ground contact while traveling over rough terrain, this wheel-supported floating action enables the tool to operate at the ideal pitch to simultaneously loosen and rake the soil, making the perfect seedbed possible with minimal skill on less-than-ideal rough terrain!

THE NEXT GENERATION OF SCARIFIER RAKES

THE SR2: EXPRESSLY DESIGNED TO SAVE TIME & INCREASE PROFITS

The SR2’s smaller profile and

economical price make it a sound investment for any contractor.

THE LOW PROFILE DESIGN MEANS PERFECT VISIBILITY of every component during use, eliminating countless hours of handwork around a house, septic, sidewalks, curbs, and more. Every component is visible, so operators can quickly, cleanly, and safely cut an edge alongside buildings in a fraction of the time. The SR2 eliminates almost all hand-work completely. Push freshly loosened topsoil right up to the edge of a house or sidewalk, and feather it out backward for a beautiful, hand-rake-free, seed-ready finish! For tough vegetation along curbs or sidewalks, cut in with the finish rake or pull a scarifier right alongside the edge to eliminate weeds at the root in a fraction of the time it would take a worker to use a spade and rake.

THE FOAM-FILLED FLOAT & GAUGE WHEELS allow an even planing action when pushed, and controlled-depth scarifier penetration when pulled. Adjusting the scarifiers & tool pitch allows measured & controlled penetration that’s easy to maintain even across rutted terrain. The gauge wheels make any competent operator an expert SR2 operator!

3 innovations that enable the SR2 to generate more profit than the competition:

ADVANCED SCARIFIERS The SR2’s durable cast-shank scarifiers easily penetrate hardpan and create an ideal seedbed for vigorous seed germination and root growth. The scarifiers allow multiple depth settings and have replaceable bolt-on tips. Optionally, hydraulics may be added for on-the-fly control.

ADVANCED RAKE The ¾"-thick laser-cut hardened-steel rake is the thickest, strongest rake on the market, enabling forward and reverse operation without worry of bending tines. Push forward to slice vegetation, clear debris, and spread top soil. Pull backward to pulverize dirt clods and leave an ideal seed- or sod-ready finish. Replaceable in 1' sections.

WHEEL-SUPPORTED FRAME The SR2's fully welded triple I-beam frame allows you to utilize every bit of power your skid steer offers. Furthermore, the frame is supported by never-flat wheels to add precision control over working depth and finish grading even when operating on rough terrain!

The TR3’s industry-exclusive PATENTED LEVELING BLADE floats to automatically level high & low areas and can lock in place for more aggressive grading. In the floating position it will catch high areas and drop material into lower areas automatically. If the area is already level it will help to maintain a perfect grade while raking. When locked, the blade can be used like a box blade for traditional “cut-&-fill” grading.

The SCARIFYING TEETH loosen the ground up to seven inches deep! The heavy unit weight and ground-entry angle enables this tool’s teeth to penetrate even the hardest conditions. The stabilizing wheels support the tool to gauge penetration depth and to mitigate tractor undulations. The TR3 can move easily from gentle sand grooming to breaking up hardpan—no retooling required!

The ¾"-thick hardened-steel FINISH RAKE is crafted for long life and is replaceable in one foot sections. Beyond pulverizing clumps of material and leaving a beautifully smooth signature finish, the finish rake also enables the user to push backward to move dirt like a mini dozer into low areas, rip out vegetation, move material to fill in washouts, and accomplish other light land clearing jobs.

THE TR3®: THREE TOOLS IN ONE

ONE TOOL DOES IT ALL: No other tractor tool excels at more tasks, is built for more hard work, and is as easy to use as the TR3®!

THE RIGHT VEHICLE & THE RIGHT TOOL TO DRIVE YOUR PROFITS: 1. CHOOSE THE TRACTOR FOR LARGE SITES

There’s no quicker way to finish a grade and prep a large seedbed than with a tractor. We invented the patented TR3® to be the ultimate multi-purpose tractor tool. On large sites, where heavy equipment has been constantly compacting the soil, the only way to create a healthy seedbed is to decompact deep enough for a robust root system. The TR3® Command Series attachment with hydraulic scarifiers penetrates 7 inches or more to remove compaction quickly. It reduces the labor and time needed for seeding jobs, all while creating perfect seedbeds for healthy, hardy growth!

2. INSPIRED DESIGN FOR ULTIMATE EFFICIENCYThe TR3 was designed to sit at an angle so all ground contact points work simultaneously: loosen, level, and rake on every pass! Foam-filled stabilizing wheels work in tandem with the 3-point hitch to keep the tool level, making it easy to operate & achieve professional results

#########

3 WAYS TO GRADE WITH THE TR3®

1 AUTO-FLOAT GRADING The TR3’s leveling blade can float to automatically catch high areas and drop material into lower areas without being overly aggressive. The degree of “float” is adjustable.

FIXED BOX GRADING The TR3’s leveling blade also locks into place for aggressive grading, similar to a box blade. Ideal for traditional “cut-&-fill” grading work.

MINI-DOZER PUSH GRADING Pushed backward, the TR3 becomes a mini-dozer, cutting high spots, pushing debris into piles or filling in a landscape edge with ease! The optional hydraulic top-link is indispensable for this use.
