Product Update
A round-up of the latest product news announced in recent weeks
The V-Ride is a stand-on mower designed for professional use; the compact machine size, ease of manoeuvring and clear view for the operator have lead to the V-Ride becoming increasingly popular for intricate mowing areas.
The Ride-On SCAG machines place the operator directly above the cutting deck, and one of the main
features on the new V-Ride is that the revised configuration of the stand-on deck follows the
same concept, placing the operator nearer the centre of the machine.
The new version of the original V-Ride was announced in 2017 and had revised features that exhibit SCAG’s policy of continuous improvement and response to operator feedback, which combine to make them such a successful machinery manufacturer.
The latest machine in the range addresses the need for gate-access - the new 2020 V-Ride 32 version.
The V-Ride 32A-16FX: • 32” Advantage Deck • 16HP Kawasaki FX • Electric start
• Drive wheels: 20 x 6.5 - 10 • Fuel capacity: 4 gallons • New style 2020 V-Ride operator pad
• All other features as on the 36” V-Ride
The machines are available through the STM dealership network.

The Etesia Hydro 80 MKHP5 can cut and collect in all conditions with the added benefit of a differential lock. The new model will give operators extra traction and stability on difficult, uneven and undulating terrain by reducing wheel spin, reducing damage to the grass and aid in cutting presentation.
The versatile mower also benefits from a mulching insert included as standard. The 80cm cutting width, 240 litre collecting box and impressive Kawasaki FS481H 11.7 kW engine give it the cutting performance and raw power to impress while operating.
The Hydro 80 MKHP5 cuts and collects both long and short grass - without clogging.
Add to that its compact dimensions measuring just 1.98m x 0.90m wide, it is easily transported in a van or trailer. It can pass through most gateways and its tight turning circle make it ideal for small or awkward areas. It mows close to walls and fences and is highly manoeuvrable and efficient offering the kind of output that would easily replace three walk-behind mowers.
Cutting height and emptying of the grass collector can all be adjusted or carried out from the driving seat, while the steering console is fitted with a timer, rev counter and electric starter.
A hose pipe fitting makes cleaning the cutting system quick and easy, while the tool-free access to the engine allows for easy maintenance thanks to quick access to all mechanical parts.
As with all Etesia machines, the new Hydro 80 MKHP5 ride-on mower comes standard with a comprehensive two-year commercial and three- year domestic warranty.

Sharing technologies with the award-winning A Model mower range, the 6080A and 6500A E-Cut hybrid electric fairway mowers from John Deere feature high-performance electric reel drive, which greatly reduces the number of potential hydraulic leak points to ensure maximum productivity and performance.
These new mowers can be operated at lower engine speeds, which further reduces operating costs by decreasing fuel consumption.
Equipped with a powerful 24.7hp (18.4kW) diesel engine, the 6080A and 6500A E-Cut hybrid mowers feature a three-wheel smooth tyre configuration on a durable chassis, with premium performance and comfort features for all-day mowing. Width of cut is 80in (2m) on the 6080A and 100in (2.5m) on the 6500A, with 18 and 22in (46 and 56cm) QA5 cutting units respectively.
These new models include the proven eHydro transmission and LoadMatch as standard, which maintains a high quality cut even when working on slopes. A mowing speed of 8mph (13kph) on both models allows operators to be more productive by covering larger areas in less time.
Both models fature the innovative, password- protected TechControl display. This gives turf managers and technicians complete control over cut quality and performance by enabling them to input commands such as mowing speed, transport speed and service times, while also capturing on-board service diagnostics.
Cut quality is further enhanced with rear- attaching yokes on the cutting units and standard hydraulic down pressure, which can tackle even the toughest mowing conditions. Additionally, the hybrid reel drive system allows more power to be available for the standard GRIP all-wheel drive traction system, to further improve performance on slopes.
