FSI B31-980 launches

September 2, 2024/in News, Press Release/by Admin

FSI B31-980 launches: Last year, the FSI B31-749 stump grinder took the arboricultural market by storm, with its 26.5hp engine combined with a compact, manoeuvrable design.

While the B31-749 quickly became a favourite with professionals, FSI listened to industry feedback and recognised the appetite for even more power. In direct response to this demand, FSI are pleased to introduce the new, higher horsepower, FSI B31-980.

FSI B31-980 launches

As the world’s only dedicated stump grinder manufacturer, FSI have a long and proven history of industry firsts. FSI were the first to introduce a pivot point design on pedestrian stump grinders, and continued innovation has seen features like the FSI power-clutch, safety bar and hill hold brake system going on to set the industry standards. “The market is constantly evolving, and we strive to always stay ahead of the curve” explains FSI Managing Director Kim Schmidt. “By actively listening to our customers, we can identify emerging trends and develop products that truly meet their needs.”

Responding to customer feedback has driven the introduction of the FSI B31-980. Building on the success of the B31-749, the new model retains the same narrow design (74cm), reliable performance, stability and manoeuvrability operators have come to expect from FSI. However, the increase from a 26.5hp to 38hp engine, delivers the additional power users require to quickly and effectively tackle stumps and navigate challenging terrain.

The compact build, combined with counter-rotating tracks and low centre of gravity, optimise manoeuvrability of the FSI B31-980 making it ideal for a diverse range of working environments. When navigating tough terrain, or cutting on slopes, the built-in hydraulic motor brakes and counterbalance valve found on the B31 range ensures stability during intensive operations.

Efficiency is assured thanks to two hydraulic cylinders which enable it to cover 120cm in a single sweep, while the ergonomic operator panel offers an exceptional view of the working area and conveniently places all necessary controls at your fingertips. Like the FSI B31-749, routine maintenance also remains simple. The hydraulically-driven cutter wheel on the FSI B31 eliminates the need for daily maintenance, minimising operating costs and reducing time spent in the workshop.

“At FSI we are always listening and are proud to respond to what the market needs – whether it’s a completely new feature or a request for more power. We are committed to delivering the solutions our customer’s demand.” Kim continues, “We are delighted to be showcasing the FSI B31-980 at a number of events with our FSI partners throughout Europe over the next few months, including GaLaBau in Germany, Groen Techniek in The Netherlands, Salon Vert in France and APF in the United Kingdom.”

Visitors to APF looking to see the new FSI B31-980 or wishing to discuss their stump grinder requirements with the team can do so on stand 1560/1580.

Corvus appoints Ark ATV

August 30, 2024/in News, Press Release/by Admin

Corvus appoints Ark ATV: Somerset ATV dealer Ark ATV has joined the Corvus Off-Road-Vehicle network. The announcement was made by BOSS ORV, the UK Corvus distributor, whose Managing Director, Phil Everett, has previously worked with Ark director Rob Blomfield-Richards.

“I am delighted to be reunited with him and his team, as I know how professional they are and what fantastic support they offer to their customers,” says Phil.

Corvus appoints Ark ATV

ARK ATV Ltd has been family-owned and operated since 1997, supplying farmers and other workers with high-quality ATVs from their Minehead area base. BOSS ORV’s National Sales Manager, Neil Everett, has also known Rob and the team for many years and says he has seen them demonstrate extremely high customer service levels and a great understanding of the working ATV/UTV market. They will cover the area across Somerset and North Devon.

Neil says, “with their current line-up lacking a UTV and us requiring coverage in such a strong area for UTV sales, it seemed almost natural for us to open up discussions regarding the Corvus franchise.”

Ark will sell and support the Corvus Terrain ranges of diesel and electric UTVs. BOSS say they are extremely pleased to have such a longstanding, credible ATV/UTV specialist added to their dealer network. They believe Ark ATV will provide the highest standard of sales and aftercare support for all new and existing customers within the area. For Ark, becoming Corvus dealers gives them access to the full Corvus range, and allows them to cater to their customers’ needs by providing true commercial work ATVs, both diesel and electric. BOSS add that not only are they extremely pleased to have them on board, but they are also very much looking forward to working with Rob and Ark MD, James Westwood, in the coming years.

For more information about the Corvus Terrain range, you can call 01785 561046
