Minimise emissions and maximise uptime with the ZE range

Minimise emissions and maximise uptime with the ZE range: The ZE Electric Zero-Turn range from Kubota has proven its credentials with operators looking to reduce their environmental footprint, all without detriment to productivity or cut performance.

Verifying that sustainability does not have to result in a compromise in turfcare standards, the fully-electric ZE-421 and ZE-481 mowers from Kubota’s Zero Turn collection are exceeding expectations too on operator comfort – reducing the noise, odours and vibrations associated with ICE-powered equipment.

Minimise emissions and maximise uptime with the ZE range

With no internal combustion engine, the ZE produces no CO₂ or particulates during operation, supporting the UK air quality and net-zero commitments of local authorities and other green space managers. Instead, the ZE range is powered by a durable 48V, 10kWh lithium-ion battery which allows the mower to cover up to 15,000m² on a single charge. Depending on site conditions, the operator can choose between Eco, Standard or Boost mode deck settings to further optimise battery life whilst choosing between two transport speeds, when exhausted, the battery module can be removed and exchanged in minutes.

The advanced K-Sense auto-adjustment system also actively monitors deck load in real time to automatically balance mowing and travel speed to preserve cut quality on varying grass types and densities.

The ZE-421 and ZE-481 models come with a 42” or 48” side-discharge deck, ideal for professional contractors and landscaping applications, with an optional mulching kit available. Smooth and quiet in operation, additional comfort is provided by the adjustable seat and ergonomic deck controls designed to reduce fatigue and improve operator wellbeing.

In addition, the ongoing maintenance of the ZE range is significantly simplified, making it ideal for busy grounds teams. With no engine oil, spark plugs, fuel filters or exhaust systems to service, the routine upkeep is reduced to essential checks such as blade sharpening, tyre inspection and periodic battery monitoring. The electric drivetrain also results in fewer moving parts and less wear and tear, lowering the risk of breakdowns and maximising uptime.

The ZE range forms part of Kubota’s ongoing declaration to support a carbon neutral environment by 2050. For more details on other sustainable solutions for professional groundcare, visit www.kubota-eu.com

Reesink Hydro-Scapes make key appointment: In a period of sustained expansion, Reesink Hydro-Scapes has created a role to strengthen the sale and technical support provided to its water related customers.

Adam Moss joins the team as the new Sales and Technical Support Representative, covering the south of the UK and Channel Islands.

He brings with him the perfect blend of experience. He’s got practical experience from working in a turfcare role: 21 years in total as First Assistant Greenkeeper at Evesham Golf Club, Deputy Head Greenkeeper at Blackwell Golf Club and Course Manager at Henley Golf Club giving him awareness of the realities of the job, a detailed understanding of the industry and a passion for turf management.

In these roles, Adam used Toro irrigation equipment and machinery, so he is familiar with not only the products he will be working and supporting customers with, but also with Reesink as Toro’s UK distributor.

Adam explains: “I can speak from experience when it comes to helping new and existing customers with the irrigation issues they face. I will be able to help problem solve and find solutions. Whether it is the pressures of the weather, budget issues, technical problems, or additional support, the chances are I faced the same, or a similar, situation.”

Adam’s last role before joining Reesink was in a turfcare sales role which will certainly aid him in building strong relationships and identifying new business opportunities for Reesink.

Robert Jackson, Reesink Hydro-Scapes Division Manager, says: “We understand the water business is specialist and the products require specific training to get the best out of them. We were waiting for the right person to demonstrate the qualities required to understand the customer’s requirements on a practical level and provide the necessary help and support, as well as develop and retain relationships with existing and new customers. Adam, with his expertise and industry insight, is that person.”

And if all that wasn’t enough Adam is a keen golfer so knows what constitutes to good playing conditions in real life – he has a handicap of four! So, whether you’re diving into the world of sprinkler systems for the first time or navigating water management software, Adam is available for a chat to help make the right decisions regarding water requirements such as precision control and reliability.

“The time is certainly now for everyone in the golf course industry to be evaluating their water usage and supply against the backdrop of the changes in weather and the strain on older systems,” Adam concludes. “I’m really excited about the prospect of starting customers on their journey towards water sustainability and best practise and being there every step of the way.”

For those wishing to start a conversation about irrigation in the south of the UK and Channel Islands can contact Adam, while Pete Newton can be contacted by those in the north of the UK, by calling Reesink Hydro-Scapes on 01480 226800, emailing info@reesinkturfcare.co.uk or visiting reesinkhydro-scapes.co.uk.
