Spring discounts from Reesink

February 5, 2024/in News, Press Release/by Rosie Duckworth

Spring discounts from Reesink: Spring is on the horizon and that means one thing: cutting season is fast approaching. With that in mind, Reesink Turfcare is supporting customers with discounts on genuine Toro cylinders and bedknives.

The best quality and most precise cut comes from a cylinder mower and in order for this precision machine to give the performance its capable of, it stands to reason it’s fitted with precision engineered parts.

Spring discounts from Reesink

Michael Hampton, parts manager at Reesink Turfcare, explains: “If the bedknife is not perfectly flat, it is impossible to get the bedknife to touch the entire length of the cylinder. And that’s an essential part of a cylinder mower’s construction that makes it a precision cutting tool. Adjust any part of the construction process with, for example, ‘will-fit’ parts and the fit, form and function are affected resulting in a less consistent cut and sub-par after-cut appearance.”

Toro genuine parts are the exact same parts used on the production lines to build the original equipment. Not only that, but they’re manufactured with reliable, high-quality materials to ensure maximum performance with less downtime, and they’ve been rigorously tested to make sure they can withstand the daily stress that come with keeping a course in top condition.

To consider buying an alternative is simply a false economy, says Michael: “If customers have made the decision to invest in a Toro machine, it’s important they understand why fitting genuine parts to match the quality of their initial investment is key. However, we appreciate, as costs rise, it can be tempting to cut corners and that’s why we’re offering our dealers discounts to pass on to their customers.”

To find out what offers are available, customers are advised to contact their local dealer to be sure they’re getting the right part with the exact engineering specifications for their equipment at the best possible price.

XP Kinetic now available in Europe

February 5, 2024/in News, Press Release/by Admin

XP Kinetic now available in Europe: Following the announcement of the arrival of the all-new RANGER XP Kinetic last year, Polaris has now announced that the first shipments of the Ultimate trim model have started, with both the Premium and Ultimate models now available at European dealerships.

RANGER XP Kinetic is available as a 3-seat model in Premium and Ultimate trim. The Premium trim contains a single 14.9 kWh lithium-ion battery that offers an estimated range of 45 miles (70 kilometres), whilst the Ultimate trim delivers double the battery capacity of 29.8 kWh with a higher estimated range of 80 miles (130 kilometres)* – ideal for longer days spent hard at work.

Convenient charging options are designed to fit specific customer needs and are as easy as plugging into a standard wall outlet. Whether customers are looking for an overnight charge, or a quick top off during the lunch hour, they are covered. XP Kinetic comes standard with a 1-phase EVSE that allows riders to charge from a 240V outlet. Factory-installed on-board charging rate is 3kW for the Premium trim—reaching full charge from 0% in 5 hours—and 6kW for the Ultimate trim—reaching full charge in 10 hours, which can be reduced to 5 hours with peak charging**. Peak charging requires a 3-phase (380V) outlet together with a 3-phase WallBox EVSE accessory, and along with the available 3kW on-board charging system (sold separately), rates can be boosted to 6kW for Premium and 9kW for Ultimate for up to 50% faster charge times.

Alongside all the premium features found in both model trims – like LED headlights, integrated dash switches and full-coverage front bumper fitted as standard – the Ultimate trim also offers a bright 18-centimetre (7-inch) touchscreen infotainment screen powered by RIDE COMMAND technology, which offers configurable gauges to monitor ride activity. Pair that with the Ultimate’s added front and rear camera, riders can then see a full view of their surroundings – including other riders behind. Riders can also seamlessly pair the display via Bluetooth to wirelessly stream music and stay connected with call and text alerts.

A feature also seen on the petrol-powered Ranger XP 1000 model, ‘Plow Mode’ activation on the XP Kinetic Ultimate makes snow removal even easier by automatically lowering the plow when shifting into low gear ratio, and automatically raising the plow when shifting into reverse. It also features a handy ‘Back Drag’ mode for pulling snow away from buildings.

Capabilities and Performance

Manufactured at Polaris’ state-of-the-art facility in Opole, Poland, and engineered through Polaris’ exclusive 10-year partnership with Zero Motorcycles, the RANGER XP Kinetic features an all-electric powertrain that offers the most horsepower and torque ever found in a utility side-by-side. Not compromising on capability, the XP Kinetic can effortlessly tow up to 1,134kg and boasts an industry-best 680kg payload capacity, as well as a class-leading 35.5 centimetres of ground clearance and 25.4 centimetres of suspension travel to confidently rise over obstacles and smooth out the bumps.

With regenerative braking, electric power steering, on-demand all-wheel drive and VersaTrac Turf mode as standard, as well as three driving modes—ECO, Standard and Sport—riders are in complete control of their ride, depending on the terrain and task at hand.

Warranty

Thanks to being fully electric, the RANGER XP Kinetic features fewer moving parts for lower maintenance costs, and both Premium and Ultimate models are backed by a two-year total coverage warranty, three-year electric powertrain warranty, and five-year battery coverage***.
