Multifunctional Vehicles For Local Authorities And Service Providers

October 30, 2017/in Machinery, Press Release/by Franziska Reiche

Multifunctional vehicles for local authorities and service providers: Internationally successful manufacturer HOLDER presents its vehicle programme of ground care and winter maintenance products for the first time at SALTEX in Birmingham.

German company Max Holder GmbH looks back on nearly 130-years of “German engineering”. Even today the wide range of municipal vehicles with their high quality, innovative ideas, and maximum economy are quite impressive.

The range of products starts with the small X-series (40 HP), moving up to the middle range C-series (50/65 HP) and then on to the large S-series (100/115/130 HP). These articulated vehicles, along with their perfectly matched attachments, offer a versatile and all-year-round usage. In only a few steps, it is possible to switch to winter maintenance, sweeping, mowing or several special applications. The vehicles are used in municipalities, at airports, for car parks, in industrial companies, and for facility management. They are characterized by their agility, their driving and operating comfort, as well as their reliability and durability.

The Holder products are already available in numerous countries throughout Europe, Asia and America. The market presence especially in the UK and Ireland shall now be further developed. While the importer in Ireland, RD Mechanical, has been successfully active during the last years, UK is still a new Market for Holder. Andreas Vorig, CEO of Max Holder, states: “This year we started with our new distribution company Holder Equipment UK. We are very happy that for the director’s position we could win Brian Croll, who has enormous knowledge and experience of the municipal market in the UK. One of the first actions will be to develop a sales and service network that fits our customers’ needs.”

At this year’s SALTEX, the latest model of the C-series will be presented: the new Holder C 70 meets the new European emission standard Stage 3B and has the award winning Holder PowerDrive inside, which provides 40% more traction and 50% more climbing capacity compared to a common four-wheel drive. While the presentation of the Holder X series with petrol engine and catalytic convertor is Holder’s response to the urban particulate pollution problems without a costly exhaust gas after-treatment. The Holder range of products including attachments will be presented at the SALTEX in Birmingham from 1 – 2 November 2017 at stand number H031.

Power Through Autumn With The ECHO PB-580

October 30, 2017/in Machinery, Press Release/by Tony Hawkins

All too often you’re shifting wet or damp materials, with leaves clinging together and hard to move. Not so with the PB-580 backpack blower. The PB-580 has all you need to power your way through the autumn with a premium grade Stage 2 compliant 58.2cc engine doing the work. What’s different as well about the ECHO blower is its excellent balance, and it’s light enough to be used throughout the day without causing excessive user fatigue. It has to be ECHO’s most comfortable backpack blower, with its ventilated backpack pad to keep the operator cool even with the machine on full power. Four anti-vibration springs support the operator’s back and the shoulder straps are fully padded.

ECHO engineers take a very different approach in their design – it’s all about user experience and the environments where the blower will be used. Clearly, adding comfort enhancing features will increase operator productivity for a quicker result. The blower’s handle has been designed with a new palm rest and hand stop to reduce the chances of the operator’s hands slipping down and losing control of the machine. The trigger has also been made longer for more precise throttle control.

You can tell this is a machine that has been tested in everyday, real-life environments as everything feels easy and natural to use. What’s more, the PB-580 has been designed to be easier for the operator to maintain. The air filter cover is easily accessed with no need for tools. The pleated, automotive style air filter can be quickly replaced and the in-grip adjustment has been placed near the handle for easy access to tighten the throttle cable. There’s a leaf guard to eliminate any debris being potentially blown into the fan intake clogging the filter and fan. The metal ring at the end of the straight pipe reduces the pipe’s wear and tear.

Add to this the fact that ECHO products are manufactured by the Japanese Yamabiko Corporation, who have been leaders in professional outdoor power tools for over sixty years. The PB-580 also comes with a two-year professional warranty, giving you peace of mind to put autumn in its place. You can find out more from your local authorised ECHO dealer.
