AriensCo unveils AS-Motor at SALTEX

On display will be Ariens’ APEX and ZENITH. The Ariens’ APEX has established itself as an industry leading zero-turn with uncompromising performance, power and precision, available in 48” and 52” decks with side and rear discharge configuration. ZENITH is Ariens’ fully commercial zero-turn with enhanced operator features. It comes with 60” or a newly developed 52” deck and has rear and side discharge capability. All Ariens petrol powered zero-turn mowers for the UK and Europe are manufactured at its Oxfordshire factory.

Excitingly, Ariens’ battery powered ZENITH E zero-turn will also be on show. ZENITH E retains all the same top-class features as the ZENITH but with no emissions and low noise. The ZENITH E range has increased with the addition of 48” and 52” side and rear discharge decks alongside the original 60”.

Additionally, Ariens will be presenting its new commercial stand-on mower, the ARROW. This low-profile machine offers professionals both speed and accuracy, giving them the ability to mow large areas of grass and manoeuvre easily around flower beds, trees and other obstacles. ARROW comes with both 32” and 36” decks and will soon be available to purchase.

Following the recent acquisition of AS-Motor, AriensCo is excited to be exhibiting its range of high- grass and mulching products. On display will be the SHERPA and YAK commercial ride-on mowers. These machines combine strength, performance and comfort to tackle even the toughest meadows, slopes and high grass areas.

Furthermore, AS-Motor’s range of petrol and battery powered walk-behind mulching mowers will be on display as well as its specialist battery powered WeedHex tool.

Brad Stiles, Vice President of Sales, EMEAA, said, “AriensCo is one of the fastest growing outdoor power equipment suppliers in Europe and we can’t wait to show Saltex the benefits of joining us on this incredible journey. Our exceptional line-up of Ariens petrol and battery powered zero-turns, speciality AS-Motor products and outstanding customer service sets us apart from others in the industry. There’s never been a better time to grow with us.”

ISEKI is part of the team at Bloxham: An ISEKI compact tractor is proving to be an ‘extra member of staff’ for the grounds team at Bloxham School according to Head Groundsman Paul White.

Located in the heart of the beautiful Oxfordshire village of Bloxham, Bloxham School is an independent, co-educational boarding and day school for boys and girls aged 11 to 18.

On a single-site campus the school boasts state-of-the-art facilities for academic work, technology, arts, and sport – which is where Paul comes in. Bloxham has a superb sporting programme offering a wide range of sports and Paul and his grounds team work hard to prepare these surfaces to the highest standard.

To achieve this, Paul is somewhat of a perfectionist when it comes to grounds maintenance equipment.

“As soon as machinery becomes outdated and not fit for purpose it absolutely needs replacing,” he said. “Specifically, we wanted a tractor to cover all the implements we have in our workforce, and to be able to use them safely and correctly on different surfaces.

“The reason we bought into ISEKI was because we have used their machines regularly in the past and they have always been reliable.”

After a demonstration arranged by ISEKI dealer Turney Groundcare & Garden Machinery, Paul decided to purchase the ISEKI TG6495 – a 47 hp compact tractor with the innovative IQ dual-clutch 24-speed transmission.

Other benefits of the TG6495 include:

1580 kg lift capacity at the ball ends and 1400 kg lift capacity @24″ behind
Category 2 cab with air-conditioning, heating, and a good view
Front loader joystick, up-stop PTO, linkage up in reverse and draft control all supplied as standard
Equipped with an electro-hydraulic power take-off shaft that saves the attachment and the engine while providing operator comfort

“We all been really impressed with the tractor,” said Paul. “The lifting of the PTO has been a massive benefit and the automatic clutch shut off is good for when we are turning on the sports fields.

“The weight and the size of it is much better on our fields for compaction. It has good traction for the wheels, the all-round visibility of the tractor is very much improved compared to our last tractor, and general use is a lot easier for the operator.

“It has performed exceptionally well in all weather conditions. Through the winter it has been fantastic with our vertidrainer and in summer it has helped with a number of different implements.

“Also, the IQ transmission makes it easier for our operators to use and change gear when there are implements on the back.

“We like to think of this tractor as an extra member of staff – it does everything we ask of it.”
