ISEKI Covers the Course at BTME

December 16, 2024/in Events, News, Press Release/by Admin

ISEKI Covers the Course at BTME: Iseki UK and Ireland will be exhibiting tractors, a remote-control tool carrier and mowers for every area of the golf course in Hall 6, Stand 645, at BTME 2025.

Recognised as one of the leading exhibitions for greenkeepers, BTME provides the perfect platform for Iseki to showcase its innovative range of machinery tailored to the needs of golf courses and turf management.

This year, Iseki will exhibit a lineup of equipment designed for precision, efficiency, and sustainability, including the Raymo remote-controlled Torpedo with Electric Power Pack and R42/R48 Deck. This eco-friendly mower provides quiet operation and zero-emission performance across all terrain and is especially effective on side slopes, around water hazards and other areas that traditional mowers can’t reach.

The powerful yet compact theme is continued with the TH5 ROPS tractor. This tractor is perfect for a variety of course maintenance needs, with its hydrostatic transmission and high lift capacity giving the operator complete control. Comfort, lift capacity and manoeuvrability combine to make a tractor that can access and operate in almost any area of the course on essentials tasks.

For jobs that need more power over more expansive areas, Iseki has the TG6507 IQ Tractor with Loader – a robust and powerful tractor equipped with the IQ transmission system. The IQ dual-clutch gearbox works on the principle of a direct-shift gearbox, which consists of two gearboxes working in unison, offering the control of a manual with the convenience of an automatic. There are eight main gears and three ranges. Gears are changed by simply moving the gear lever through the straight shift gate with no need to use the main clutch. If D is selected, then gears 4 – 8 are operated automatically – ideal for aeration, spraying, topdressing or cutting.

For cutting in more compact areas, Iseki offers the SXG327 with 54” High-Tip Collector. Known for its precision and high-performance collection capabilities of up to 650 litres, this mower is perfect for fine turf maintenance using the high-tip function for effortless unloading, saving time and effort during busy course maintenance schedules.

Joining the SXG327 on the stand will be the SF551 Mower with 60” Rotary Deck. Built for high-capacity mowing, the SF551 offers exceptional cut quality, reliability, and speed using a turbine-driven collection system and a 1300-litre high-tipping collector, which can be emptied at any height up to 2.2m directly into skips, truck beds or trailers. As well as mowing, the SF551 is also an exceptional option for leaf collection during the autumn and winter.

Iseki’s machinery is meticulously engineered to address the unique challenges of golf course maintenance, including manoeuvrability in tight spaces, minimal ground disturbance, and superior cut quality.
