Harrogate Week looms for BTME
02 January 2012 With the new growing season just around the corner, BTME is the ideal show to catch up with Amazone Groundcare. With a comprehensive range of turfcare kit on offer, the relaxed atmosphere found at Harrogate means that there is time to stop and chat about your green space maintenance needs.
The GBK Overseeder combinations are ideal for rejuvenating fairways and those intensively used areas such as around tees and greens that have taken a hammering over winter. And if it’s a question of putting down new areas of grass, then that is also no problem for these grass seeding combinations.
The model line up of spreaders and top-dressers such as the EKS or E+S offer year-round use – from snow and ice clearance on hard areas like car parks at this time of year, through to top dressing on greens approaches or tees in the spring, or applying mineral fertilisers to fairways where appropriate. There is a hopper size and level of sophistication to suit all pockets and demands.
With the Exact-Cut flail rotor, immaculate collecting ability, and a choice of self-propelled with the Profihopper, or tractor trailed from the Groundkeeper range, it makes Amazone Groundcare the number one choice for mowing, scarifying, collecting and rolling.
The Groundkeeper, in working widths from 1.2 to 2.1 metres can be fully mounted, semi-mounted or trailed depending on tractor horsepower and hopper size. The tool-less blade change makes it the most flexible of grass cutting machines, from clearing out the rough to fine lawn cutting around clubhouses and greens. In the autumn then just a few minutes is all it needs to be ready for scarifying and collecting – and all in one pass!
But if it’s self-propelled that is required, then that is no problem with the Profihopper; there are three models in the range - the all new 4WDi and iDrive with 0-radius turn or the lever-controlled Profihopper 04 with its zero turning radius. Again the Exact-Cut rotor from the Groundkeeper, coupled with the Profihopper PowerCompactor auger collection system, means that over 1000 litres of cut material can be mashed up and compacted into the 700 litre hydraulic high-tip hopper. The 26.5 hp, 3-cylinder diesel with automatic radiator cleaning makes short work of waist-high grass, heather, wild flower meadows, rough, scrub, hedge cuttings, spring bulb waste, etc – the all-rounder that can be used all year round!
