About the FR1 Trencher
FR1 offers a wide range of rotor sizes and is therefore capable of the widest range of jobs – from micro trenching, sand slitting and root-pruning to installation of drains and other secondary drainage products. It is also ideal for installing cabling and submerged fencing.

FR1 Trencher in action
Our Case Studies and Research demonstrate that our FR1 trencher and the techniques it performs, provides greenkeepers and groundsmen with a versatile solution to problematic areas of sports turf.
Dr. Christian Spring (STRI) says:
"The main effect of the trenching with FR1 Trencher on turf quality was to significantly increase turf quality scores during wetter periods of the year, in comparison to untreated plots."
A Problem We've Solved
Existing drainage failing due to drainage lines in incorrect position, leading to puddling and waterlogging on hotspots.
Solution: Use ForthRoots FR1 to dig micro-trenches of less than 1" width, backfilled with quality drainage sand to link to main drains.
