New Leguan 195 delivers powerful performance

September 3, 2024/in News, Press Release/by Admin

New Leguan 195 delivers powerful performance: Taking advanced features and design cues from their flagship model, the next-generation Leguan 195 is the perfect combination of agility and robust performance.

Key features:

Premium working height of up to 19.7 meters
Advanced boom design delivering fast and smooth movements
Up to 9.9 meters of side reach and 250 kg maximum lift capacity
Market-leading all-terrain capabilities and sturdy track platform
Intuitive and user-friendly joystick control

What do you get when you combine the speed and versatility of the Leguan 190 with the smart controls and market-leading performance features of the Leguan 225?

You get the new Leguan 195 – a brand-new model that redefines excellence with its unmatched all-terrain capabilities, robust track platform, and impressive driving speeds.

Designed to conquer even the toughest environments, the 195’s redesigned and shielded boom structure delivers maximum side reach even at greater heights, while the cutting-edge smart control interface guarantees seamless, precise and safe movements.

Compared to the Leguan 190, the all-new 195 features Leguan’s highly praised, user-friendly, joystick controls plus quick one-button access to home and back-to-work positions.

New features also include a shielded boom structure that protects components from external blows, falling branches and sawdust, making the 195 a great choice for arborists and construction professionals alike.

Leguan spider lifts are known for their premium performance in slopes, hard-to-reach areas and uneven work sites thanks to their automatic levelling, advanced track design and low center of gravity, and naturally the new Leguan 195 is no different.

“Our users have been requesting a Leguan model that retains the 190’s agility, compact size and speed but adds the intuitive controls and smart features of our flagship model. I believe we’ve succeeded in designing a machine that truly meets their needs,” Leguan’s Sales and Marketing Vice President Jori Mylläri says.

Standard features:

21 hp Kubota diesel engine + 230 / 110 V electric motor
230 / 110 V and USB power outlets on platform
Automatic engine RPM control and outrigger levelling
Proportional outreach monitoring system
Battery powered emergency lowering system
Lower controls with integrated service display

The R&A Sustainable Agronomy Service expands into Europe

September 3, 2024/in News, Press Release/by Admin

The R&A Sustainable Agronomy Service expands into Europe: The R&A Sustainable Agronomy Service has agreed a strategic partnership with SURTEC – a multi-disciplinary agronomy team offering consultancy across the maintenance and development of golf courses – to expand its operations in Europe, with Spain and Portugal regions now benefiting from its expertise.

The new partnership will offer knowledge and experience to facilities in the continental European market, providing support in relation to sustainable agronomic practices to golf clubs.

The R&A Sustainable Agronomy Service expands into Europe

“The development of The R&A Sustainable Agronomy Service and Sustainable Championship Agronomy is supported by our Research and Education initiatives, which are the foundations of our work” said Daniel Lightfoot, Director – Sustainability at The R&A.

“The partnership with SURTEC allows us to expand our operation into Europe alongside a team which has a wealth of knowledge and understanding of the market, our goals and golf course agronomy. We look forward to bringing our collective expertise and guidance to European golf clubs and resorts together with local insight to help educate, support, and encourage their commitment to a more sustainable future for the game of golf.”

SURTEC, based in Seville, consists of a team with over 15 years of independent experience within the industry in Spain, Portugal and further afield. Its team provides golf course agronomy consultancy to over 30 clubs, offering a broad range of services for golf courses covering consultancy, project engineering, irrigation, and project management.

Pablo Munoz, co-founder of SURTEC, commented, “Collaborating with The R&A undoubtedly represents our most significant step forward since the foundation of SURTEC. We believe that with the knowledge and support of The R&A’s qualified and experienced agronomists and with the help of the latest technology, we can reach more clubs and people within the industry, share our know-how, broadcast our message for sustainable agronomy widely, and truly fulfil our commitment to the golf industry in our region. This commitment is based on responsible use of resources and the conservation and enhancement of the environment.

“Our mission alongside The R&A, is to achieve the best playing surfaces with minimal labour and sustainable use of material and water resources.”

Whilst this partnership first sees the offering expand into Spanish and Portuguese territories, it marks the start of the continental European operation for The R&A Sustainable Agronomy Service.
