Product Update
A round-up of the latest product news announced in recent weeks
The new Attila 98X has been designed to work in the toughest of conditions. This powerful workhorse effectively deals with clearing vegetation from a wide variety of sites - long grass, weeds, bracken and brambles on woodland paths, orchards, verges and embankments.
Powered by the new Kawasaki FS691V 24HP electric start engine, the Attila 98X has a strengthened welded tubular chassis providing a better driving position for operators.
With a low centre of gravity, four-wheel-drive plus heavy-treaded tyres and differential lock, the new ride-on brushcutter to join the Attila family provides greater stability on slopes up to 30°.
Swing or fixed tip blades with a 98cm cutting height adjusted by a centralised lever with 8 working positions from 50mm-120mm plus transport mode enable this workhorse to cut through dense growth of up to 4.5cm diameter.
The new Attila 98X model joins the Attila range of pedestrian and ride-on brushcutters already available within the extensive Etesia portfolio.

ICL has announced the launch of LockStar - a new residual, pre-emergent total herbicide for vegetation management in the UK.
LockStar arrives at a time when public green spaces, amenity areas and
transportation infrastructure are all coming under increasing pressure from reduced budgets, weed infestations and a reduction in chemical solutions available on the market. This new herbicide will keep areas such as these weed-free, functional and visually pleasing.
The GM3200 and 3300 out-front rotary mowers have all the benefits Toro’s out-front rotaries are known for, including superior access and trimming, optimal sight lines, easy-to-use controls and all-season versatility, and, as you’d expect, significant performance enhancements too.
There are two engine models - a 24.7hp for the GM3200 and a 37.4hp for the GM3300, both Stage V emissions compliant, with options of 152cm (60ins) or 183cm (72ins) rear and side, or rear-only discharge rotary decks, with or without mulching kits, or a 152cm flail deck.
Toro has focused particular attention on the deck design with 4.5mm high strength steel decks, rugged spindles, a bullnose bumper and reinforced sideskids, these machines are built to tackle any terrain and deliver a superior and consistent cut while dispersing clippings evenly.
Customers can choose from three deck options. There are two rotary options: the standard deck has rear and side discharge and replaceable deck bumpers, whilst the Turbo Force deck has rear discharge and welded deck bumpers. Mulching kits are available for both.
Meanwhile, the option of the fine cut flail provides even more productivity and versatility for customers and further value to their investment making light work of both shorter precision cutting as well as tackling longer, wetter, coarser grass.
The tip-up cutting deck makes servicing even easier with access to the underside of the deck in under 15 seconds, whilst its 19.8cm ground clearance means kerb climbing is easy.

Reesink Turfcare has expanded its range to include the BTD-200 lightning warning system from meteorological equipment specialists Biral.
Designed to be quickly and easily installed, the comprehensive server software package of the BTD-200 detects cloud-to-ground, intra-cloud and cloud-to-cloud lightning, charged precipitation and strong atmospheric electric fields, displaying the lightning distance in real- time on a map of the local area and the current lightning alarm level.
Quasi-electrostatic measurements avoid the 140 PC December/January 2020
problem of false alarms and mechanical failures associated with the detection of lightning using radio wave and field-mill based sensors. It’s able to issue overhead lightning warnings prior to the first lightning strike, unlike systems based on radio waves.
With the BTD-200, the detector is placed outside whilst a PC indoors runs the software. Minimal installation is required and up to five people can simultaneously use the system.

Developed for use on natural surfaces not intended to bear vegetation, permeable surfaces overlying soil and railway ballast, LockStar controls a broad spectrum of weeds and has an innovative, long-lasting formula which allows for professional and safe weed control. The formula contains diflufenican and iodosulfuron-methyl- sodium - which is the first new weed control active ingredient to be released in the UK for many years.
When applied before germination LockStar creates a dual barrier at the soil surface ensuring that soil is kept weed-free for up to four months. To control weeds that are already present, LockStar should be tank- mixed with glyphosate or a fatty acid..

• A wider base than most irons to provide a very stable platform when changing direction and negotiating slopes on and off the green
• Large diameter rollers are utilised to reduce compaction by having increased ground contact. This assists a smooth driving action through reduced rolling resistance
• The rubber mounted engine and hydraulic drive unit is fully contained in a tray to keep oil/fuel off the green
• Conventional greens iron operator position of the driver sat sideways.
• Tiller steering with 2 handed control for precise control of direction
