NEWS RELEASE, Norfolk, NE - 6/20/02

TRU MARK ATHLETIC FIELD MARKER USED FOR TRAFFIC ZONE MARKING

E-100 walk-behind athletic field marker demonstrated the capability to apply acrylic latex traffic zone marking paints in recent factory and field tests. The 12-volt 3.3 gallons per minute electric pump supplies sufficient pressure and volume to one of the spray nozzles for a professional looking 4" line. The traffic zone marking paint was diluted with either 16 ounces of water or 16 ounces of latex paint conditioner to 1 gallon of paint. This demonstrated capability adds a new opportunity for customers to use the E-100 as a 3-in-1 sprayer: field marking, traffic zone marking, and herbicide application.

Tru Mark Athletic Field Marker, Norfolk, NE, manufactures the E-100. Mark Hall Vice President of Operations demonstrated this new capability at the 27th Annual Nebraska Turfgrass Foundation Field Day, June 11, 2002, a University of Nebraska Agronomy Department hosted event at their Mead, NE facilities. Mr. Hall also presented a field lining maintenance cost reduction program at the Nebraska Sportsturf Managers Association Chapter Field Day, June 19, 2002, in North Platte, NE.

Tru Mark Athletic Field Marker also produces and sells a RS-500 self-propelled field marker that is capable of applying more than 250 linear feet of 4" line per minute. The two 20 gallon tanks make it a long endurance marker for large sport complex operations. If you have multiple field locations, Tru Mark produces the Paint Mule, a utility trailer to carry the RS-500 or three E-100s, 40 gallons of liquid, pumping transfer equipment, and storage for tools and supplies.
