Sweep Star 48 Sweeper – Golf
The Smithco Sweep Star 48 is a compact, high-performance turf sweeper purpose-built for golf course maintenance crews. Its 3-wheel, self-propelled design and tight turning radius make it ideal for navigating around greens, bunkers, and other tight areas. With a wide sweeping swath and large-capacity debris hopper, it makes quick work of leaves, grass clippings, and aeration plugs. The belt-driven single reel and adjustable sweeping height provide consistent performance on fairways, roughs, and practice areas alike. Dual caster wheels help the machine follow course contours smoothly, delivering professional, tournament-ready results day in and day out.
