Toro ProCore 648 Headlines Stand At Jersey Skills Show

November 16, 2018/in Events, Machinery, News, Press Release/by Rosie Duckworth

The division was attending the show to encourage a career in sports turf maintenance, says Steve Landick, playing fields manager of the division for States of Jersey. And what better way to visually represent the work the division does at the show than the ProCore!

“We work closely with sports organisations, clubs and schools to grow sport in Jersey and we’re working on developing an integrated system that supports grassroots sports and its development to provide a pathway for performance athletes to go on and represent us in events such as the Island Games and the Commonwealth Games. Having a talented sports turf maintenance team is essential in achieving that.”

The ProCore 648 is widely considered to be one of the most important tools there is when it comes to aeration, with many Premiership football clubs happy to use the machine just ahead of a game, the finish is so good. There’s little heave, and it can be depended upon to deliver all year-round aeration.

Steve, who attended the show with the division’s current apprentice Peter Ahier, says: “The ProCore is a new addition to our fleet of machines and has debuted on the Island’s cricket squares and bowling greens. The whole division has been very pleased with the way it has performed, it’s a great purchase.”

They say a picture is worth a thousand words and seeing is believing so to have the ProCore on stand will have helped bring to life Steve and Peter’s chat about what a career as a groundsman is like, showing those visiting the show the type of quality machinery they’ll be in charge of as they potentially strive to keep the island’s sporting surfaces in the best possible condition.

“There’s a fantastic opportunity in sports turf maintenance for school leavers, people wishing to change career or re-entering the workplace,” concludes Steve. “To have the opportunity to reach these people and explain that at the Jersey Skills Show has been fantastic and the ProCore did as good a job for us there as it has been doing out in the field!”

Bobcat Loader Scoops Award

November 16, 2018/in Machinery, Press Release/by Mike Isherwood

Taking place every two years at the MCH Messecenter in Herning, Agromek is Northern Europe’s largest agricultural fair, with well over 41,000 visitors in 2016. The fair is an important meeting place for the agricultural industry, its suppliers, customers and business partners. Chosen by a panel of judges that includes farmers and industry experts, Agromek Stars is an award system focusing attention on the exhibitors’ product news. Svenningsens’ award recognizes the TL43.80HF as a ‘newsworthy’ product at the show.

According to Bobcat, the TL43.80HF combines several new features to take lift capacity, lifting height and breakout force to unprecedented levels in the farming market. The TL43.80HF is therefore ideal for the heavy-duty, high-productivity applications found on large crop, livestock and dairy farms; for use by agricultural contractors working with manure, straw, alfalfa and cereals and for use in agricultural cooperatives.

Appearing for the first time at Agromek, the new top-of-the-range TL43.80HF telescopic loader will be centrestage on the Svenningsens stand (No C2750). The TL43.80HF will be joined on the stand by the latest loaders, excavators and attachments from Bobcat’s market-leading compact equipment range.

This year Bobcat celebrates the 60^th anniversary of the loader. What began 60 years ago on farms in North Dakota, USA, with the development of the world‘s first skid-steer loader has grown into a truly global business and iconic brand. As well as loaders, Bobcat now offers a full line of telehandlers, compact excavators and matching attachments for agriculture, all of which will feature on the Svenningsens stand at Agromek.

As a part of celebrations for the 60^th loader anniversary, visitors to the Svenningsens stand can learn about new developments in the market-leading Bobcat compact loader range. The new developments provide an increased choice of features, providing many extra benefits for customers of Bobcat skid-steer, compact track and all-wheel steer loader ranges.

Best Loading Productivity for Agriculture

Thanks to a maximum lift capacity of 4.3 tonne and a maximum lift height of almost 8 m, combined with the fastest boom movement available in this market, the new TL43.80HF allows farmers to lift more, faster and to use higher capacity buckets for the highest loading productivity available.

Built for intensive loading work, the TL43.80HF is in fact the only machine in this area of the market that can use a 3500 l light material bucket, combining this with a Z-bar tilt angle of 152° and a higher breakout force of 7000 kg. When compared to other machines in this segment, the TL43.80HF provides greatly superior performance offering an increase of up to 40% in loading productivity. Cereal truck loading, for example, has never been so fast as it is with the new TL43.80HF telescopic loader.

HF – High Flow technology is a key feature of the TL43.80HF, offering outstanding hydraulic capabilities and performance with a class-leading 190 l/min load sensing pump and flow sharing distributor to combine all movements together. This hydraulic flow makes it possible to maintain a high work rate with an increasing number of advanced hydraulic attachments including mixer feeder buckets, bale unrollers and straw blowers.

This allows the operator to work at significantly lower speeds, consume less fuel and benefit from much shorter working cycles. To prevent unnecessary oil heating and power loss, the load sensing pump supplies oil only when hydraulic power is required.

An Unbeatable Package for Farming

The TL43.80HF offers an unbeatable package for this segment of the farming market, bringing together robustness, relatively compact dimensions, rough terrain ability and ease of use for the operator in the same machine.

With the new TL43.80HF, Bobcat now offers a range of seven different telescopic loader models for the farming market, covering maximum lifting capacities between 2.6 and 4.3 tonne and lifting heights from 6 to 8 m.

Unlike any other manufacturer on the market, all Bobcat telescopic loaders are covered by a three year/3000 hour warranty as standard. There is also the option of extending the warranty to five years/5000 hours. All Bobcat telescopic loaders are designed and produced in Europe to meet the demand for high comfort required by customers.

The new TL43.80HF is also available with a choice of three different AGRI packs for the farming market meeting different levels of expectation in terms of ease of use and level of comfort.
