Advantages
1Safety
It’s the obligation of all decision-makers, regarding the conditions of their infields, to properly invest in equipment that is going to produce the safest playing environment for their athletes. The ability of the ABI Force to properly prepare an infield is second to none in the industry. Only the ABI Force can properly eliminate under surface compaction, inconsistencies, and conditions that put the athlete at risk of injury.
2Playability
No one can enjoy the game if the game cannot be played. Team schedules, revenue generation, and fair play are at risk when your infield maintenance equipment cannot handle the power of Mother Nature. The versatility and control of the ABI Force gives facility managers and operators the tools they need to combat the conditions that make playing the game impossible.
3ROI
The ABI Force generates significant returns versus other infield groomers. Operators using the Force can prepare infields significantly faster due to its zero-turn chassis and stand-up platform. In addition, with its multi-function design, the Force can handle gravel maintenance, aerating, fertilizing, seeding, edging and more. The Force’s durable, industrial grade construction ensures years of dependable performance.
4Commercial Grade
The ABI Force was designed to utilize some of the most reliable and durable commercial grade engine, hydraulic, electrical and cooling system technologies on the zero-turn market. Commercial Grade warranty is a standard on all internal systems, assuring your investment will show returns for many years of operation.
5Efficiency
The need to get the work done right and in the most efficient manner is critical to a well-managed facility. The versatility and control that the ABI Force offers facility managers and equipment operators will reduce the time needed for infield grooming, preparation, and renovation. With the ability to prepare and finish in one pass, zero turn maneuverability and multiple options for other maintenance needs, the ABI Force is in a class of its own.
6Versatility
With the ABI Force’s mid-mount attachments directly below the hydraulic controls, it becomes an extension of the human body. Easy visibility for both attachment ground contact and forward direction makes the ABI Force the safest and most effective infield groomer on the market.
7Operator Experience
With traditional bunker-rake style infield groomers, physical fatigue comes standard. Always looking over your shoulder to see how the drop-and-drag attachments are affecting the infield quickly leads to operator fatigue and discomfort. With the ABI Force’s attachments directly below the eyes of the operator, and with the ergonomic design of the stand-on platform, operators will experience more comfort, safety and better results

They say a picture paints a thousand words. A perfectly maintained infield tells athletes, coaches and spectators that you care about the Game. When games are played on a pristine and beautiful infield, everyone wants to come back.

The ABI Force is built to give the operator the ability and control necessary to renovate, prepare and groom the safest and most playable playing surface possible.

Reviews
With the ABI force I gotta say it's a one in a kind of machine with it is anyways, but with what it can do it's priceless for a grounds crew . I have 10 fields I mostly use the ABI force for and with the ABI and myself I can get all 6 fields spiked leveled and groomed all in 4 hours. The district I work for didn't have a groomer they used a bobcat to do it's work in the past this is something I pushed for and sold my boss on getting and we did. This has replaced 4 guys. The ABI is a huge time saver for me now I have those four guys mowing other areas in the district and helping.
The ABI Force from ABI Attachments has been a complete game changer, at the USA Softball Hall of Fame Stadium, here in Oklahoma City, OK. Being able to laser grade our infields whenever we want and how we want has been an absolute blessing! We are now better able to not only control where our water travels from our infields, but we are also better able to control our moisture throughout the days, weeks and months of a softball season. The ability to pitch our fields in different directions almost on command has changed the way we take care of our softball fields. This machine has also saved us time and labor! Being able to operate multiple attachments at the same time makes the work much more efficient and less strenuous on our personnel. We essentially have gained more man power without having to hire more workers. This machine is a BEAST!
In my 40 plus years of working on fields as a player, high school coach, collegiate coach and now maintaining the fields at the Softball Hall of Fame I have never had one piece of equipment that has made as much of an impact of maintaining fields as the ABI Force. The Force is such a versatile and agile piece of equipment that performs a multitude of jobs for us that we never were able to do or it performs these jobs so much better and efficiently for us than in the past. The greatest impact the Force makes on our facility is our ability to laser weekly after each tournament event. We are now able to maintain our surfaces on a weekly basis by managing and replacing our material, preventing low spots in our infield due to heavy play. This provides us with a safer surface that is manageable both in dry and wet conditions. I give the Force my highest recommendation for an infield grooming machine.
