Product Update
A round-up of the latest product news announced in recent weeks
A range of three low decibel three-point linkage mounted debris blowers and two high capacity collectors, recognised for their safe, efficient and reliable performance for sports, grounds and other turf customers, are now available from Reesink, the agricultural and turfcare distributor, in time for autumn.
Aspen Fuel have announced the introduction of two new package sizes to their range of 2- stroke and 4-stroke Alkylate Petrol. In addition to the standard 5L and 200L units, new for 2020 are 25L and 60L options.
These new sizes give users the flexibility to specify their fuel quantity by the container, pallet or drum that best suits their usage, storage and transportation requirements.
Being virtually free from sulphur, benzene and other harmful substances found in regular pump fuel, hazardous emissions from equipment running on Aspen Alkylate Petrol are minimal - improving the working conditions for the operator and significantly reducing the harmful impact your machinery makes on the environment.
The new size options are also matched with new bulk-order pricing, details of which can be found on the Aspen website. For added convenience, bulk orders can be delivered to site in 48 hours or, alternatively, collection is available from Aspen dealerships nationwide.

There are three leaf and debris blowers available. All are tractor mounted with the BW2500 requiring 25hp at the PTO, BW3500 35hp and BW4500, 45hp respectively. They have an aluminium rather than steel impellor which, because it requires less energy at full throttle, delivers a quieter, smoother and vibration free operation. This will appeal to golf courses and urban sports grounds, for example, where it is important to keep noise pollution to a minimum.
The lightweight construction reduces the sudden loading on the driveline and helps reduce belt wear as the PTO is engaged. The large roller on which the blower rides lets the operator work in the worst conditions without marking or compacting the turf, particularly useful for sports surfaces, especially on turns. This low decibel series of tractor-drawn blowers has been designed for maximum productivity and minimum maintenance and are a worthy addition to any golf course, sports ground, paddock and orchard and the option to fit caster wheels, which allows the machine to switch to hard surface application, makes them a good option for public schools, colleges, universities and large estates for driveway clearing too.

well as an electromagnetic PTO clutch which replaces the hydraulic PTO, offering a more positive drive for consistent cutting performance.
Building on its reputation for developing innovative solutions for customers in the groundcare market, Kubota has announced the launch of its newly updated and popular G-Series range of mowers.

Additionally, users of these new cutting-edge models will benefit from improved output, increased speed and greater comfort. G- Series mowers have been engineered to run faster and deliver improved mowing performance; saving time, money and effort for customers. The enhanced performance and adaptability of Kubota’s new G-Series also enables operators to work more efficiently across various types of terrain which can pose a multitude of challenges.
With a top speed of 19.0km/h, the highest in the industry, G-Series mowers enable users to cut grass at higher speeds and ultimately finish the job quicker. Enhanced driver comfort is also offered by the new tilting steering wheel.
An improved collecting system features a wider and taller chute with a shorter travel distance between the deck and the grass collector enabling impeccable grass flow and reduced clumping. More grass can be handled with ease and efficiency..

As part of their continuous product development programme, INFINICUT® have announced the introduction of a new 60Ah battery module. The new power unit joins the line-up, alongside the industry-leading 30Ah option, to offer extended run-time and more power for increased overall flexibility.
Together with a significantly reduced carbon footprint compared to that of a petrol-driven mower, the modular demountable battery configuration of the INFINICUT® has proven to deliver a reduction in noise output and significant improvements to the Hand-Arm Vibration (HAV) levels for the operator.
This new, larger 60Ah battery offers a run-time of up to 390 minutes (dependent on machine, set-up and conditions) and supersedes the current 40Ah module option, giving the operator the opportunity of matching battery capacity with the specification required to deliver desired work patterns. The 30Ah and 60Ah module units are standard and interchangeable across the entire INFINICUT® range - including the floating head and fixed head cylinder mower collection, and SM34 Rotary model - to give reliable, consistent performance with the option of purchasing further interchangeable battery modules as required.
