Etesia UK has presented a Pro46 pedestrian mower complete with mulching kit to the winner of the prize draw competition winner which was run at IOG SALTEX 2010 and within the August-November issues of The Landscaper magazine.

 

Terry Bates of Bates Garden Maintenance, Surrey was presented with mower by Etesia’s new Southern Area Sales Manager, Phillip Gibson at the company’s UK head quarters in Oxfordshire earlier this month where he was also given a tour of the new facilities.

 

Designed to meet the rigors of a wide variety of commercial grass cutting applications, Etesia’s Pro 46 pedestrian rotaries are specified by contractors who want to profit from grass cutting. The special shape of the mowing deck produces a powerful suction and blowing effect to ensure a quality cut with 52 litre grass collection box. As an option, a PR46E mulching kit and PZ46M
mulching blade also converts the pro 46 mower into formidable mulcher. The Pro 46 rotaries are lightweight and compact, making them ideal for mobile grass cutting units.

 

Commenting on his win, Terry said: “It was such a surprise to win as you never think it will happen to you. I entered the competition last year and thought no more about it. Etesia has such a good reputation so I’m more than happy with winning the new mower which will be put straight to work”.

 

Bates Garden Maintenance celebrates its 10th year this year, with clients ranging from private customers, large estates and more recently Mary Quant, the British fashion designer who was instrumental in the mod fashion movement and one of the designers who took credit for inventing the miniskirt and hot pants.

"I wouldn't cut a hedge without one. Anything over 6' you should get with 3 adjustable legs, otherwise they can be unstable if you lean - but positioned correctly they are the only way.

"Yes had that scenario where you can't reach a fiddly bit no matter what ladder and have to balance on the apex of a shed roof or do best job painstakingly with a long reach pole pruner . "

"I'm very wary of these tripod ladders, I took a life changing fall from the top of a 12ft tripod. Now I only use them myself with great care. The issue is that they are very unstable at the top if you lean to either side, and they go with no…"

"Done a couple of second cuts already this last week would you believe. It's almost as if the grass has a memory of last year's drought and is making up for it now plenty of moisture available"

"the tripods are good but in some scenarios the wide base and the fact the 3rd leg has to be placed some distance away from the step part for stability makes this large foot print impractical eg when cutting hedge behind a shed or greenhouse with…"

"Never tried these but always thought they look a bit of a pain to cart about. Looking at the picture, seems you're quite away from the hedge so you have to reach out more?   I just use ordinary aluminium extension ladders that you can easily adjust…"

"Tripods are better than any other ladder that's a fact. You can cut hedges that are lower than the ladder but it is more awkward, I have a 6ft amd a 12 foot been using both for the last 15yrs and haven't come stuck yet. Believe me once you've had…"

"I agree with HB. 12 foot Henchman with 3 adjustable legs are fantastic and we use them all the time."

Does moss always = full renovation

Hi.Does a mossey lawn always equal a full lawn renovation? Once you kill (or control) moss the customer is left with brown / black dead moss all over their lawn. So then its needs scarifying to rake it up, then usually a preseed fert, seed and top…
