ABSTRACT:
A maintenance vehicle with a suction roller constructed as a water-removing device is used for preparing, for the purpose of achieving an optimum condition, a natural grass playing field for soccer games or the like. This suction roller is essentially a perforated drum-shaped roller with a foam-rubber coating surrounding it. A weight roller lies approximately on top on the suction roller and is rotatably supported axially parallel to same, and a catching trough is positioned in the suction roller with a pipeline leading into a water tank for the purpose of emptying the trough. This maintenance vehicle also has a lawn verticulator, a surface roller, and a warm-air blower for drying or aerating the playing field. Thus, it is possible to remove accumulating rain water on a playing field within the shortest possible time, so that soccer games can take place independently of the respective weather conditions and the terrain can be maintained in an optimum condition.
