John Deere shows new machines at Scotsturf
Machines from John Deere's all-new golf and sports turf maintenance product range will be featured at IOG Scotsturf in November. All are designed to enable operators to work more efficiently and achieve a higher quality finish on golf courses and other sports turf areas.
One of John Deere's brand new 5M Series utility tractors for commercial, amenity and horticultural applications also makes its public debut at the event.
The 220e E-Cut walk-behind greens mower, with hybrid electric drive; the 7200 PrecisionCut trim & surrounds mower, with the patented 'Width on Demand' cutting system; and the 8000e E-Cut hybrid fairway mower, a three-wheeled, ultra-light fairway machine, are all fitted with the latest Quick Adjust cutting cylinders.
These feature a unique Speed Link system for extremely quick height of cut adjustment; this new technology effectively allows the reels on an entire fleet to be set in the time it previously took to adjust the height of cut on just one mower.
Additional new machines on show include the 8400 Commercial triple reel mower for local authorities, contractors and landscapers, which features high capacity 10in Jumbo cutting units, an intelligent all-wheel drive traction system and a unique Cross Cut function for increased productivity; the HD200 SelectSpray amenity turf sprayer, fitted to a John Deere Pro Gator utility vehicle; and the X749 lawn tractor, an all-wheel steer version of the 4WD X748 model, also designed for demanding commercial applications.
