Regardless of the size of your beach or the obstacles you have to clean around, Cherrington has the right-sized beach cleaner for your beach in its comprehensive line of screeners. From self-propelled to tractor models and large capacity to compact units – whatever your beach problem – it’s NO PROBLEM with a Cherrington!
The three wheel design of the Model 5000, Model 3000 and Model 950 allows for zero turn capability and gives a short overall length to make these self-propelled beach cleaners the ultimate in maneuverability and versatility for cleaning narrow areas, among trees, around cabanas or in sand play areas.
Cherrington’s high capacity Beach Cleaners are uniquely designed with the durability required for doing the final cleanup on projects with freshly dredged coral or hauled in sand.
Cherrington Beach Cleaners are rugged enough for picking rock up to 10 inches (250mm) in diameter and yet precise enough to screen down to 3/8 inch (10mm) – and all with lower maintenance costs than any other beach cleaner.
On wet or dry sand; on the upper beach into the tide line Cherrington beach cleaners collect unwanted coral, rocks, seaweed and trash in the hopper while quickly returning sand to the beach.
Easily clean up shoreline messes such as seaweed, animal waste, trash, stones or driftwood with a Cherrington Beach Cleaner and enjoy a beautifully groomed, sanitized beach.
Cherrington beach cleaners work well in either wet or dry sand and can even screen into the shallow water to insure the entire shoreline is cleaned. The Cherrington lift and screen process carries the sand – wet or dry – onto the powered screen and as the sand is sifted back to the beach the debris is carried to the hopper. This method leaves the surface well- groomed and appealing and gives you the added benefit of fluffed, aerated and freshened sand.
Whether you have a very small beach or several hundred feet of shoreline, Cherrington has a beach cleaner to meet your size and budget requirements.
For lakes requiring a high capacity machine, Cherrington recommends the self-propelled Model 5000 or tractor model 4500XL and for mid-range beaches the series 700.
If you have small sand areas, the compact and highly maneuverable self-propelled Model 3000 ride-on beach cleaner or the Model 950 wireless remote control walk-along beach cleaner are ideal for your application. The Model 800 can be towed behind a small tractor or 4WD ATV and is perfectly suited for reclaiming and maintaining small lakeshore beaches.
There are few areas more important to screen clean than a beach volleyball court because of the dangers hidden objects can pose to players. Cherrington’s Model 950 was used on the sand volleyball courts at the Beijing Olympics to keep the sand clean and soft for professional play. For courts on large ocean beaches, the Model 5000 easily adapts from high capacity cleaning on open stretches to maneuvering around net poles on the courts.
Cherrington’s self-propelled Model 3000 or Model 950 are ideal for cleaning around trees, play equipment, cabanas, picnic tables and board walks because of their compact size superior maneuverability and versatility. The ride-on Model 3000 can be unloaded into a dumpster and the wireless remote controlled Model 950 can be fitted with an optional bagger system for unloading into garbage cans.
Cherrington Landscape Screener Industry Applications
The Cherrington Model 4500 Series is a revolutionary rock picker for golf course construction and renovation. It provides an incredibly simple and effective solution for one pass shaping and seedbed preparation on fairways. Cherrington is unique because it screens the topsoil from 1 to 6 inches (25 to 150mm) deep rather than just picking stones off the surface. In one pass the Cherrington Model 4500 screens and collects unwanted stones and roots leaving a perfect seedbed.
Add Cherrington’s new powered pre-screening roller and you have the ultimate all-in-one tool for soil preparation. This option is designed to loosen rock, roots, sod and old turf for immediate screening and removal.
The Cherrington Model 4500 series is rugged and low maintenance. It was designed to be fast and efficient with a small, elliptical hydraulic motor providing the perfect amount of sifting power to the screen. Built with steel loading paddles, carbide wear points and just three bearings this machine is durable and low cost to maintain.
A Cherrington functions like a stationary screener to process top soil, but on a self-loading frame to give it the mobile screening advantage. This proven and dependable screening method gives you new abilities and options. Whether you are preparing turf fields for another season, preparing to seed a fairway or renovating athletic fields – a Cherrington Power Screener will save you time and money.
Cherrington’s are self-loading power screeners. The Cherrington lifts the soil onto the oscillating powered screen. Objects larger than the screen hole size, such as rocks, roots, sticks and construction debris are retained and carried by the loading flights to the hopper while a layer of screened topsoil is returned to the surface up to 6” (150mm) deep.
Cherrington’s Compact Screeners effectively screen the infields of ball diamonds removing small stones down to 3/8 inch (10mm) as well as unwanted vegetation.
Cherrington Industry Specialized Applications
Screen out hazardous stones and debris, clean and condition the cushion all in one pass with Cherrington Track Screeners. The Cherrington lift and screen system is the economical and efficient replacement for the expensive and time-consuming process of loading the cushion, transporting, screening it at a stationary plant and then transporting it back to the track.
Loading paddles carry the cushion up and over the oscillating screen. Anything larger than the screen-hole size is loaded into the hopper and the cushion is immediately returned to the surface.
Screen to your predetermined depth of 1 inch (25mm) to 6 inches (150mm) deep and 48 inches (1200 mm) to 72 inches (1800mm) wide, depending on the model. Options available in either ground dump or high lift models. Compact screeners (36 inch or 900mm cleaning width) are perfect for walkways and paddocks areas.
Screen out stones, nails, and other dangerous items lurking under the surface of the cushion as small as 1/2 inch (13mm). The Cherrington Screeners leave the track or arena surface level and immediately ready for racing, training or other events.
The wireless, remote controlled Model 950 screens up to 4 inches (100mm) deep, removing all brass and lead casings. This wireless remote controlled screener with its 3 wheel design is maneuverable enough to pass closely around firing stations and targets. Clean up firing ranges by retrieving objects from 3/8" to 4" in diameter.
Recycle brass and lead casings and reduce dangerous lead levels. The Cherrington sand cleaner system is both safe and effective, using an oscillating screening system that lifts and then sifts, retaining all objects bigger than the screen while returning the sand and soil to the ground.
Firing and artillery range clean-up is fast and easy with the Cherrington Screeners. For larger areas, the full-sized Cherrington screeners, such as the self- propelled Model 5000, can clean up all areas of the firing range, retrieving recyclable brass, copper and lead casings.
Military gunnery ranges of all types use the Cherrington mobile screeners to reduce dangerous ricochet hazards on both air to ground and hand held gunnery ranges.
The Cherrington’s rigid slanted screens make it uniquely effective for oil spill clean-up. The standard screens are fitted with galvanized steel plates for skimming crude off the top of shallow water at the shoreline or removing oil-soaked, polluted sand from the beach. The Cherrington can be set to a predetermined depth from 1 inch to 6 inches (25mm to 150mm) to skim off the top few inches of oil soaked sand. Because the depth can be easily adjusted, only the necessary amount of sand is removed.
Cherrington Beach Cleaners excel at sifting out tar balls, marine debris, dead fish and other auxiliary results of oil spills or leakage. Using the Cherrington’s standard sifting screens, a wide range of debris is carried into the hopper while the sand is sifted back through onto the beach. During this process the sand is aerated and exposed to the sun’s purifying rays, while the groomer bar leaves a beautiful finish on the beach.
Cherrington Screeners can be set to a preset depth to just skim the surface of drying beds and smoothly remove the cake of dried sludge. The sand remains in the bed and the surface is not gouged or in need of additional leveling – ready for the next batch of effluent.
Models 5000 and 3000 are available for sludge harvesting with interchangeable solid or sifting screens and are maneuverable enough to work even in small drying beds to remove all types of industrial and municipal sludge.
