Blaney’s New Superhuman Helper

May 21, 2019/in Machinery, Press Release/by Gillian Bonnar

Blaney’s New Superhuman Helper: Blaney Motor are excited to launch a new mini loader – the BIONIC S1 035. The new Blaney BIONIC though small in size offers massive capabilities for many tasks involved in landscaping and greenkeeping.

This new superhuman helper can lift six times that of a man and 12 times what is recommended we should lift. This little machine is less than 1500mm long and can fit into a van for easy transportation with no need for a trailer licence. The Blaney BIONIC is affordable help, capable of more than we can imagine.

Following extensive customer consultation the BIONIC has been developed to be compact, mobile and manoeuvrable with the ability to do a variety of tasks. What makes this mini loader so handy is that you don’t have to climb into this machine or open doors. You can quickly and easily step on and step off, moving from job to job.

Blaney’s optional high flow oil drive for attachments gives endless applications. An advantage over a small tractor is that all implements are in front of you, with a small hitch for trailer work. With over 25 years’ experience in developing attachments, the BIONIC can be equipped with a range of attachments to carry out tasks including soil preparation and grass maintenance. Could you do with some extra help with: lifting, loading, shifting or mowing? Then put the Blaney BIONIC to work.

This versatile mini loader is ideal for working in tight and awkward areas thanks to its small size and zero turning circle. With a bucket capacity bigger than a wheelbarrow it is ideal for disposing of debris and grass cuttings and given its ability to reach over 2m it can tip into a trailer easily, making it better than any wheelbarrow.

The BIONIC is ideal for working in tight and awkward areas such as narrow paths or small gardens making it ideal for landscapers and tree surgeons. It can be fitted with a host of equipment for soil tillage and grass keeping duties such as a power box rake, a broadcaster for grass seed and fertiliser or a range of mowers for finishing and topping vegetation. The BIONIC can also be kitted out with a sprayer and boom making it a handy weed control device. A sweeper can make tidy ups quicker and easier. Equipped with forks it is ideal for unloading and moving pallets up to 350kg. Round the green, garden or field the BIONIC can be used to cut grass in hard to reach areas, lift stones and bore holes for strainers and fencing.

Blaney Motor Company, part of the Blaney Group of engineering companies based in Co Antrim, Northern Ireland is known for designing and manufacturing innovative off road vehicles including compact wheeled loaders. The New BIONIC is an exciting addition to their range and was showcased at this year’s Balmoral Show alongside Blaney Motor’s compact L1 loader range.

The team at Blaney will be pleased to speak to you about how a machine can be tailored to suit you. Blaney Motor are developing their dealer network and welcome trade enquiries.

Toro The Choice At Bridgnorth

May 21, 2019/in Machinery, News, Press Release/by Izzy Cutler

Toro The Choice At Bridgnorth: Bridgnorth Golf Club in Shropshire recently signed their fourth renewal agreement with Toro despite competitive offers from other brands because “nothing matched up” says head greenkeeper, Martin Jones.

When it came to the end of the club’s third renewal agreement with Toro, Martin chose to consider all the options to find the best possible machinery for the parkland course situated alongside the River Severn.

“One company even brought a whole fleet for us to trial,” says Martin. “But at the end of the day, myself and the whole team agreed that nothing matched up to Toro.

“Since our first agreement, we’ve been impressed with the quality of machines, service and the improvement to the course, and it’s continued to get better through the tenure of two more agreements. In fact, in the last five years, I can count on one hand the number of issues we’ve had! That’s an incredible track record that’s hard to beat.”

Martin also credits the service from local dealer Oakley’s Groundcare and Reesink Turfcare, an official Toro UK distributor, as largely influencing the decision to renew for a fourth time.

“We’ve got a great relationship with Oakley’s. On the rare occasion we have a problem, I know I can pick up the phone and they’ll get a mechanic out to us in an hour and a replacement machine within a day. Similarly, Reesink’s area manager John Pike has been really helpful, from general advice to the training; it’s all been great.”

Having been at the club for 42 years and head greenkeeper for over 20, Martin knows quality when he sees it, which he says is exactly what Toro provides.

“The quality of Toro machines is second to none and every single machine does exactly what it says on the tin. That’s why we’ve renewed like for like as well as purchasing a couple machines from our previous fleet.”

The new fleet consists of a Greensmaster TriFlex 3400, Groundsmaster 5610, GM4000-D, GM3500-D and Reelmaster 3100-D alongside a purchased Workman HDX-D and GR3250-D. “The quick release unit of the Greensmaster TriFlex 3400 in particular is fantastic,” says Martin. “It’s a real time saver and the standard of cut is outstanding.”

“With every new renewal the course has improved, particularly the fairways and the tees,” Martin concludes. “With Toro things just keep getting better!”
