STIHL has launched a range of service kits for petrol handheld tools that enable professional and domestic owners to carry out simple routine engine maintenance themselves, increasing their tools reliability and longevity.
Developed by STIHL to make routine maintenance quicker and easier, the new service kits allow owners to maintain the optimum performance and reliability they expect from STIHL products.
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, because they are purpose-built for grasscutting, place the operator directly above the cutting deck, and one of the main features on the new V-Ride Stand-On is that this configuration 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.
Full model name is 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
The machines are available through the STM dealership network.

The kits contain everything needed to carry out routine servicing on a STIHL petrol hand held power tool engine and include an air filter, spark plug and fuel filter, plus additional items depending on the specific machine. The kits also come with a QR code and short URL so users can quickly access how-to videos to give them step-by-step instructions for replacing the air filter, spark plug and fuel filter.
Twenty-three variants of service kit are available, covering the most popular STIHL petrol chainsaws, brushcutters, blowers, pole pruners, hedge trimmers, cut off saws and earth augers.
In addition to professional and domestic users, the new service kits can also be used in-store by STIHL approved dealers, making the process of ordering and carrying out a service quicker and more cost-effective.

Building on the success of its versatile, dependable L1 Series, Kubota has introduced a brand new model, the L1-382.
With its enhanced features, the L1-382 model ensures greater durability and productivity, whilst also improving performance and efficiency. Its attractive new styling reflects Kubota’s new design strategy, combining a dynamic appearance with superior robustness.
Amongst its most significant improvements is a new Kubota stage V three-cylinder 38hp engine with CRS, EGR and DPF technologies designed to minimise exhaust emissions and reduce fuel consumption. The L1-382 also boasts increased fuel tank capacity at 42 litres for longer working days.
In addition to its improved efficiency and enhanced performance, this tractor offers increased visibility and comfort, with a new platform design and impressive ergonomics, all controls being optimally placed and easily within reach.

Reesink brings invisible and complete top access in-field irrigation to Toro’s B Series sprinklers with a new natural turf cup.
This innovative addition to the popular sprinkler head allows grass to grow in the cup on top of the sprinkler to create a seamless and continuous area of turf. The quick release rubber cap pops up, allowing all the access needed to service the internal parts of the sprinkler without digging it up. It’s available in full-circle or adjustable part-circle configuration.
Designed to fit perfectly on the popular Toro B Series sprinklers, this turf cup further enhances the many benefits the B Series sprinkler is known and appreciated for. In action, the heads evenly irrigate a span of some 13 to 29 metres and the volume can easily be altered to deliver exactly what’s required with adjustment from 25 or 15 ‘Dual Trajectory’ options without having to change the nozzle.

Ventrac has added two Flail mowers to its growing list of dedicated attachments.
The two available models, Fine Cut (MW series) and Fast Cut (MY series), feature unique knife choices and offer two width options for more versatility of cut, speed, and application. Cutting widths for the decks are 1.42m (56") and 1.83m (72") and offer the most versatility for specific property needs.
The Fine Cut Flails (MW560/MW720) are equipped with scoop knives, and will achieve a quality cut with a more finished look on grassed areas mowed between three and eight times per year.
The Fast Cut Flails (MY560/MY720) feature Y- shaped knives, for taming dense and brush-type material. The Fast Cut is an excellent choice for areas of overgrown brush and woodland margins that do not require regular mowing, while providing a superior finish to that of a typical rotary rough-cut mower.
The introduction of these two new flail options complements the existing Tough Cut rotary mowing deck. All decks have a flip-up option for easy maintenance, enabling access to the knives for sharpening or replacement.

stage clutch which allows the pto to be operated while engaging the main clutch. This is particularly useful when needing to change gears when working without stopping the pto. Alternatively, the L1-382 can be specified with the popular three-range HST transmission for easy operation and smooth control of implements requiring constant speeds.
Routine maintenance is simpler and quicker thanks to a one-piece fully opening hood, and a newly designed bonnet and side cover.
