The MANEGE MANAGER
Some working examples
(Scroll down for sand and plastic granule mix surfaces)
(Arenas shown are sand and PVC granule mixes)
This manege surface is in serious need of redistribution.
Notice how tracked material has built up at the edges
to a point of overflowing the side kick boards.
As shown by the rear fence line, the surface has become uneven due to lack of proper maintenance.
The MANEGE MANAGER is used to plough the tracked material away from the kick boards back towards the inside of the arena
The kick boards are becoming visible. Notice that sides are easily accessed
Here the harrow bars have been used to break up the surface. This is necessary to redistribute lumpy areas evenly over the surface and assist with correct drainage. The rear scraper bar is retracted for this operation.
With the scraper repositioned, the surface can be finished to an even level. Tyre tracks from both the towing vehicle and the Manege Manager itself are also filled.
Almost finished. The surface is evenly distributed, shown by the constant level along the kick boards.
After several months of not being maintained the time to achieve this finish was just 30 minutes.
