About The Parma Company:
Located in Parma, Idaho in the heart of the Treasure Valley of southwest Idaho and eastern Oregon. We are a leading manufacturer of specialized agricultural equipment for the farming and livestock industries. We pride ourselves on fine worksmanship and specialization of our Equipment. With our in-house engineering department we are innovative leaders in the agricultural community. The Parma Arena Groomer®
The Parma Arena Groomerhas been proven in arenas and on tracks for all events that require good footing. Its ability to prepare your base as well as the top surface in one pass can improve the performance of your horse and save stress on his legs at the same time. The unit uses vibrating "S"-tines that can be set to your desired digging depth to leave a well-prepared base. Following the tines is a leveling bar that will shave off high spots and carry dirt to fill holes as you pass over the arena. To the rear of the machine is a roller that conditions the surface and also gauges the depth of the tines to leave a uniform finish on your arena.

What does the Parma Arena Groomer® Do?

The 'S' Tines loosen compacted soil and prepare the base. Front depth is controlled by the hydraulic lift of the tractors 3-point hitch in combination with the set depth of the rear roller. The tines have reversible points that are also replaceable. The Leveling Bar fills in holes and smoothes humps. It adjusts to different depths to control the amount of surface material carried.The Rear Pipe Roller, which is fully adjustable also, breaks and pulverizes clods. It firms and packs the base, leaving a soft, uniform surface.

How is the Parma Arena Groomer® Different From Other Drags?

The Parma Arena Groomer utilizes the balance of three functions placed in one unit to create a complete ground preparation in one pass. The Arena Groomer uses time proven seedbed preparation techniques, applied in a design exclusively for the Arena. The combination of the S-Tines, leveling bar, and rear pipe roller and their placement create that perfect balance. There is no need to own two or three different tools to accomplish the same task that one Parma Arena Groomer will do.

The Arena Groomer prevented a huge wreck at the Idaho Qualifier after a forgotten hose flooded 1/3 of the arena overnight. With the Arena Groomer we moved the mud around the arena and worked it into the dry ground. We started on time and roped all day with no problems.

The Parma Arena Groomer does a great job, and it does it fast. I use it because I don't have to waste practice time working the arena with several implements.

How Do I Know What Size Is For Me?

There are three standard sizes of the Arena Groomer; the 8-foot 3Bar, which has three rows of S-Tines, and the Mini 6 foot and 5 foot, which each, have two rows of smaller, mini S-Tines. The size determination is mostly dependant on the size of tractor or power unit available to pull it. The 8-foot model will require 30 to 35 horsepower minimum, while the mini models will need only 18 to 25 horsepower min. Remember to also match the width of the Arena Groomer with the tractor tire outside width to insure coverage of the tractor tire tracks. We have been very successful utilizing four wheel ATV's with the 5-foot model. There is available a pull tongue option for those without a 3-point hitch hook up on their power unit. Other widths are available upon special order.

All of the above mentioned models attach to the tractor utilizing the 3-Point hitch for quick and easy hook-up and go. They are lightweight with the 8-foot unit weighing just 800 lbs while the lighter mini models are just 300 to 350 lbs. With all these features each unit is easily adjusted and maintained by anyone around the arena.

The Solution Section
What does the Parma Arena Groomer® do?
It combines three functions in one unit to prepare your arena ground in a single pass. Vibrating "S"-tines loosen compacted soil and prepare the base, a leveling bar fills holes and smooths humps, and a rear pipe roller breaks up clods while firming and packing the base for a soft, uniform surface. Because all three steps happen together, you don't need to own two or three separate tools to do the same job.
How does the Parma Arena Groomer® protect my horse's footing?
By preparing both the base and the top surface in one pass, it leaves consistent, well-prepared footing that can improve your horse's performance and reduce stress on the legs. The S-tines can be set to your desired digging depth for a uniform base, and the rear roller conditions the surface and gauges tine depth for an even finish. It has been proven in arenas and on tracks for events that require good footing.
What sizes and models are available?
Mini models come in 5', 6', 7', and 8' widths with mini S-tines (Models AG513, AG615, AG719, and AG821M). Standard models include the 8' AG821, 10' AG1027, and 12' AG1233, plus an 8' Professional (Model AGPRO) with two rows of standard S-tines and two rows of coil tines. Special wider sizes can also be built on request.
How do I know which size is right for me?
Size is mostly determined by the tractor or power unit available to pull it. The 8-foot model requires 30 to 35 horsepower minimum, while the mini models need only 18 to 25 horsepower. Match the groomer's width to your tractor's outside tire width so it covers the tire tracks, and ask about the pull tongue option if you don't have a 3-point hitch.
Can I use the Parma Arena Groomer® on a synthetic or equestrian arena, or pull it behind an ATV?
Yes. A Coil Tine Conversion swaps out the S-tines for use on synthetic and equestrian arenas. There is also a Tongue and Ratchetjack option for pulling behind an ATV or UTV, and Parma has been very successful using four-wheel ATVs with the 5-foot model.
How does it attach to my tractor, and how heavy is it?
All standard and mini models attach using the tractor's 3-point hitch for quick, easy hook-up. The units are lightweight, with the 8-foot model weighing just 800 lbs and the mini models running 300 to 350 lbs. Each unit is easily adjusted and maintained by anyone around the arena.
Is it hard to assemble or set up?
No. The Arena Groomer ships easily by truck in a simple bolt-together package that requires only a ¾ wrench for assembly, and the mini models need just minimal assembly. Parma also provides a short video walking through the easy setup in six steps.
