“Our school district purchased the AFM-H13 field machine in the spring of 2008 and this has turned out to be a great piece of equipment. This is a total time saver for our staff and we use one piece of equipment to prepare our softball and baseball fields and it did a super job on the infields. But the real payoff came in the fall with the painting of the football and soccer fields. One staff member is able to paint the field in a quarter of the time over the past years. The lines are wide clean and we used about 1/2 the amount of paint. We have always painted the hash marks on the field by hand with a small tank. With this piece of equipment we spray the yard lines and the hash marks with one pass. The field looks great. The equipment is easy to clean and only takes a small amount of maintenance.
The customer service provided from Kromer is top notch and they have taken care of our school district’s needs. Our fields look great and I have heard many compliments from residents of our school system. I would highly recommend Kromer equipment for quality field preparation.”

“The time savings provided by my Kromer is a life saver. It allows a person to paint soccer fields and foul lines without the need of a trailer to get to both fields. The front mounted spray head follows the contours of the ground allowing for straight lines on uneven areas of the field. I will replace my 10 plus year old Kromer with a newer model when I need the hydraulic package for other uses until then my only painter will be a Kromer.”

"Our three Kromers allow us to line up to 50 fields weekly using 5,000 gallons of paint annually. They not only make it possible to get the job done but with a 60% savings in time over previous procedures. The Kromers’ great design, durable construction and extremely low maintenance has proven to be one of our best purchases. In addition to the excellent job by the Infield Groomer, the Ridge Remover attachment is “the best friend of infield players” from 1st to 3rd base. It easily removes the clay buildup ridge on the sod that creates crazy hops for both baseball and softball players. Thank you for making our job easier in providing the best surface.”

“I am still quite happy with our new paint station. We found another benefit in that it is semi-portable. Our maintenance building was being remodeled which required me to relocate my paint area for a few weeks. It was no problem to just lift up the paint mixing station and relocate it. It was back in business in about a 1/2 hour. With the ease of cleaning and user friendly mixing procedure, it has reduced my paint mixing labor by 50%.”

“The Kromer has been one of the best equipment purchases we have made. During the spring and summer camp seasons we are painting our fields on a weekly schedule. With the Kromer we have been able to reduce the painting time by almost half and with less paint. What has been really impressive is how accurate and straight we can keep the lines.”

“Our Kromer AMF piece of equipment is a great all-around machine. We use it in small skinned areas like shot put pits to big areas like warning tracks. It’s a great off field painter when we paint our Cross Country course and not having to re-fill the tank. Great labor and time saver. One use we found out is that going backwards with the stiff tines down you can loosen up high, rough or firm skinned areas. Great way to get your skinned areas level and consistent. A must have for your sports turf fleet. They have knowledgeable sales staff and good customer service.”
