“People are often surprised by how well our turf tracks perform. We have some landscapers who put them on for a single job and then never take them off because of the exceptional performance, especially in dry ground conditions. In a field test, we completed 30 counter rotations with an ASV machine with turf tracks and a similar model from another manufacturer with treaded tracks. The turf tracks left no damage while the other model dug a rut 2-3 inches deep into the topsoil.”

said Buck Storlie, product manager for the ASV brand.

ASV’s distinctive green turf tracks have a completely smooth design and are manufactured from a specialized blend that resists cracking, provides traction and maximizes overall life. The rubber tracks eliminate rusting and corrosion because they contain no steel cords. Additionally, durability is maximized through seven layers of embedded puncture, cut and stretch-resistant material. These turf tracks are available for the RT-25, RT-40, RT-50, RT-65 and VT-70 High-Output models.

ASV turf tracks amplify the effects of ASV’s patented Posi-Track undercarriage. Posi-Track features include flexible tracks, a large number of ground contact points and an open-rail undercarriage that contribute to longer component wear life, even ground distribution, more track on the ground and a virtually eliminated risk of derailment. Turf tracks take that to the next level with the elimination of treads, providing maximum ground contact and achieving traction on dry surfaces comparable to or better than machines with treads.

ASV turf tracks are backed by the company’s industry-leading 2-year/2,000-hour warranty. The warranty covers tracks for the entire period and includes the industry’s first and only no-derailment guarantee on new machines.

“We want our customers to have the best performance from their machines. These kits make it easy and convenient for them to achieve that through proper upkeep combined with OEM parts designed to keep the machine performing long term while avoiding costly repairs,”

said Buck Storlie, ASV product line manager.

The ASV Maintenance Kits include a hydraulic filter(s), an engine oil filter, fuel filter(s), and air filters. The packaged kits remove the guesswork from the process of replacing filters by including all required components in one package. This simplicity speeds up regular maintenance tasks and allows operators to get to work sooner. Additionally, the kits include labeling with instructions for ASV’s ELITE line of high-performance, heavy-duty lubricants. The engine oil, hydraulic oil, and grease products are extensively tested for use in optimizing ASV equipment and allow operators to do more work in more places.

“Whether you’re a contractor completing a job or a landowner tending your property, you don’t want to waste time hunting down the proper filters for your machine. With the kits, you have everything you need in one place. Just open the box and go. Plus, the added convenience means you’re less likely to procrastinate your filter changes, helping ensure the long-term health of your machine,”

Storlie said.

ASV Maintenance Kits are available through ASV’s dealer network. They are compatible with all current machines as well as many older models.
