Product Update
A round-up of the latest product news announced in recent weeks
Another fine example of innovative Toro technology, the Greensmaster eTriFlex 3360 is the new greensmower, developed specifically with customer needs in mind. Reducing noise, minimising impact on the environment and with no hydraulics, it says goodbye to leaks whilst never compromising on quality of cut.
Pellenc UK has announced the launch of the all new Rasion Easy 2 and Rasion Smart 2 battery powered pedestrian rotary mowers.
The new and improved Easy model has a number of key features:
• Silent brushless wheel motor with direct drive.
• 91 dB at speed 3 and 93 dB at maximum power.
• Mowing with consideration for the user's well- being
• Exceptionally low vibration rate of 0.7 m/s² (compared to 4.5 m/s² for a petrol mower).
• An easy-to-handle lawn mower: Single front wheel facilitating stability and work flow. 2 wheel-locking positions: free/idle wheels or guided steering - flexible and smooth.
A cutting width of 60cm with height of cut between 25-75mm, 70 litre grass box capacity and two front swivel wheels ensure the Rasion Easy 2 is ultra-manoeuvrable. Weighing less than 30kgs and folding handlebars means that transportation between sites is effortless. The Rasion Easy 2 also has an IP54 water rating, which as time goes on will be the standard through the rest of the Pellenc tool range.
All Pellenc batteries and tools come complete with a three-year commercial warranty as standard - the first manufacturer to offer this on battery-powered tools.

This clever ride-on utilises all-electric components for traction, steering, lifting and cutting, alongside a proven Kawasaki twin cylinder 14hp air-cooled engine with battery assist technology and a reduced speed of 2400rpm, shrouded in venting. It’s this design that ensures perceived bystander noise level is significantly reduced, making it the perfect greensmower for courses with nearby residents. As Toro’s quietest ride-on greensmower yet, work can start earlier whilst complying with noise regulations, meaning greens can be ready earlier which could enhance revenue by allowing for earlier tee times.
The suspension system maintains a full flotation range to prevent gouging or scalping when going over undulations and Toro's proven Flex technology allows the cutting units to pivot around the centre of the front roller to prevent side-to-side scrubbing. Add to this DPA cutting units and you have a mower which floats freely over any terrain with superior contour-following.

Bayer has brought a new residual pre-emergence herbicide to the UK market, adding another product to the amenity contractor’s armoury.
Valdor® Flex (MAPP:19033) contains two active ingredients, diflufenican and iodosulfuron- methyl-sodium, that prevent the emergence of a broad spectrum of weeds for up to four months, reducing the frequency of traditional herbicide applications.
The product provides excellent residual control for even the hardest to manage weeds on a wide range of surfaces, including open soil, gravel and industrial areas.
Valdor® Flex acts as a valuable tool for resistance management within the weed control sector and is stable in water for at least 24 hours so, if for some reason there is any spray solution left in the tank, it can be used the following day.
It is easy to mix in a knapsack or tractor mounted sprayer with very little dust given off, providing improved operator safety.
Valdor® Flex is available in a range of pack sizes from 10g sachets up to a 500g bottle ideal for contractors.
Valdor® Flex is available from the Pitchcare shop -

If you are looking for an easy way to remove dirts and debris from the top of a synthetic pitch then the GKB Top-Clean is the machine for you.
The GKB Top-Clean is a full mechanic, self- driven machine that removes all kind of dirt from the top of a synthetic pitch, from cigarettes, leaves and papers to plastic bottles.
This machine can easily be connected to almost every tractor by using a standard three- point hitch or electric drawbar. Using a high driving speed (around 10 km/h) will result in a perfect looking artificial pitch that you can be proud of!
Designed as a full self-driven machine, the Top-
Clean features two rubber wheels at the front to ensure that the machine will roll softly across the artificial pitch. Not only this, but a rotary brush is connected with the wheels by a chain drive. You can determine the speed of the brushes with the driving speed.
During operation, debris and infill will come on a vibrating sieve. This sieve will separate infill material from the debris and, thanks to the vibration of the sieve, all pollution moves to the bins at the end. Containing two separate bins, after use, the bins can easily be removed to get emptied in a regular waste container.

The Uplift 86E is the new 82V li-ion battery powered stadium rotary mower, designed for debris collection after matches and built on the experience gained with previous models. It features twin contra rotating blades for a high lift cut and vacuum for increased efficiency, while a full width rear roller produces perfect stripes.
The cutting width is 86cm (34”) and there is a single point, robust and effortless height of cut adjustment between 20mm-50mm. A wide grass chute allows unimpeded grass collection and the moulded deck is constructed to optimize the airflow.
The Uplift 86E power source is an 82V battery system which features four quick change battery docking stations and the mower can use any number of batteries from one to four.
Batteries can be charged in 1.5 hours and they are interchangeable with the C34E in the Allett range. The batteries connect to a phone app via Bluetooth, enabling the operator to check battery life, battery temperature and even the batteries' location. There are three brushless motors for maximum efficiency and reliability, two powering the blades and one powering the rear roller. Using batteries as its power source the Uplift 86E is extremely quiet in operation with exceptionally low vibration for maximum user comfort and productivity.
