Weather it with Countax

August 3, 2020/in Machinery, News, Press Release/by Tony Hawkins

Weather it with Countax: A sizeable garden with a large area of lawn calls for a ride-on mower or garden tractor to enable you to make short work of cutting the grass. But it’s not as simple as that, says AriensCo, the manufacturers of Countax, the British built garden tractor that has been with us for over thirty years.

You need a machine that’s built to manage all the British climate throws at you and works for you all year round. Countax tractor mowers are built for British gardens and have evolved around the experience and feedback of customers, together with the Countax dealers who work closely with the company. So, it comes as no surprise how versatile the latest models can be, starting with the ability to cut and collect grass at virtually any time and laying a high quality striped lawn finish.

Weather it with Countax

While most ride-on lawnmowers rely on the air from their spinning blades to blow the grass through a chute and into a hopper, the Countax cut and collect system works in a different way utilising a clever brush system to physically sweep even wet cuttings into a collector. There’s no clogging and the action of the sweeper also removes dead grass and debris, helping to reduce thatch for a healthier lawn. In the autumn the system can be used effectively to sweep up leaves as well. The grass collector is powered by the tractor’s engine and driven by the Power Take Off (PTO) that is also used to drive a range of accessories and powered attachments, including a broadcast spreader for spreading rock salt on ice in the winter.

The latest addition to the Countax range of accessories is the PGC+. Driven by the PTO it’s a cassette system which allows you to quickly switch accessories and transform a Countax C or B Series garden tractor into an all-year-round workhorse. The grass sweeper cassette comes as standard with the PGC+ and there’s an optional scarifier cassette to make removing thatch and moss easier come early spring or autumn. Even better is the fact it scarifies and collects the debris simultaneously.

Now, a garden tractor that’s going to be working all year, and not just in fine summer months, needs to be tough and substantially built. In tests, each painted component in a Countax is exposed to 500 hours of continuous salt spray without showing any corrosion. The cutter decks are made from high-grade steel, while the front axle is cast iron. Equally important, all the electrical components in a Countax are fully waterproof. Weigh it all up and you have the investment in a durable machine that will go on working for you throughout the seasons – year in, year out, whatever the British weather throws at you. Find out more by contacting Countax on 01844 278800 or visit www.countax.co.uk/dealers to find your local dealer.

Scottish dealer expands offering

July 31, 2020/in News, Press Release/by External Source

Scottish dealer expands offering: Polaris Britain dealer, Reiver Garage Services, has expanded its customer offering with the Polaris recreational product line-up, including the Polaris RZR.

A family-run business based in Duns, a town in the Scottish Borders, Reiver Garage Services has been an authorised Polaris dealer for four years, offering Polaris utility UTVs and ATVs since 2016. After expanding to become a Polaris recreational dealer this year, Reiver now offers the full line-up of Polaris vehicles including youth models, utility vehicles including both petrol and diesel Ranger models and the Polaris Sportsman ATV range, as well as sport and leisure Polaris vehicles such as the RZR and Scrambler.

The owner of Reiver Garage Services, Dale Robertson, has always been strongly involved with motorsport which is one of the driving forces behind his decision to add leisure Polaris vehicles to his dealership. Dale began rallying in 2005 and has competed in both Scottish and British championships, claiming the Scottish Group N Rally Championship title in 2014.

Dale said: “With rallying such a prominent part of my life, we saw this as an excellent opportunity to combine work with pleasure. We’re really proud to be expanding and to have the full Polaris range on offer now, from a child-friendly Outlaw 70 ATV, to a hardworking Ranger Diesel, all the way to a full spec RZR. It’s exciting to stretch out into the recreational market to give both new and existing customers the chance to experience this side of off-road vehicles and get some adrenaline running through their veins. We’re planning on holding a ‘ride and drive’ day in October to give people a chance to see what these machines can really do, and we’re sure they’re going to love it as much as we do.”

Reiver Garage Services prides itself on first-class customer service, both for sales and after-sales care. Managed by the head mechanic Paul, Reiver provides repairs and servicing on all ATVs and UTVs, no matter the make or model.

“It’s exactly the same for utility and recreational customers – they both want a reliable vehicle and they both want good customer service; Polaris provides the reliability we look for, and we provide the rest. It’s a perfect combination.”
