New heavy duty hedge trimmers from EGO: Battery-powered outdoor power equipment specialist, EGO Power Plus, is giving gardening and groundscare professionals the cordless long-reach hedge trimmers they need to cut more with less effort.

The HTX5300 hedge trimmer range is available in two versions – and both have variable cutting speeds from 3200 – 4,000 strokes per minute, allowing for maximum user control.

Both models also have triple-sharpened blades featuring a cutting edge on the front, back and side, this design creates score marks on larger branches to prevent slipping when the branch enters the cutting zone.

The HTX5300-P is a short-reach pole hedge trimmer with 53cm cutting head and excellent tool balance. The HTX5300-PA has a longer pole, plus the ability to angle the head for increased manoeuvrability. It also comes with a front loop handle, enabling the operator to use it safely for trimming above head height. An adjustable harness point ensures better comfort for a full day’s work.

The long-reach version enables professional users to cut more with less effort, allowing tall and deep hedges to be cut in a single sweep and without the need to use ladders while the carbon fibre shafts make the tools lightweight and durable.

Chris Buck, Product Manager at EGO, said: “These long-reach hedge trimmers bring the benefits of EGO’s battery technology to professionals who need their tools to have high performance and work remotely all day.

“Robust and durable, with swap-out batteries and a portable charging solution, the HTX5300 hedge trimmers are ideal for heavier-duty applications in groundscare, gardening and facilities management.”

Designed specifically for the rigours of work by contractors and local authorities, both models feature three speeds for different trimming and cutting tasks, a variable trigger for precise cutting control and a rear-geared motor compatible with all portable EGO 56V ARC Lithium batteries. They are also IoT-ready thanks to a built-in Bluetooth module.

The HTX5300 range is part of the new Pro X series of hard-wearing and powerful tools for professionals, which also includes a lawn mower, grass trimmers, brush cutters, a chainsaw and our next-generation PGX battery charging solution.

Polaris Introduces Heavy Duty Parts: Everybody and every ride is different, and for those who ride in extreme conditions; conditions that are even tougher and more demanding on the vehicle, Polaris introduces its Heavy Duty Parts Program: a collection of parts that have been engineered to deliver the best driving experience possible, no matter how extreme it may be.

The Heavy Duty (HD) parts expand the boundaries of Polaris riders by helping to tackle heavy payloads, extreme cold, extreme heat and much more. The HD Parts program offers HD Brake Pads, HD Drive Belts, HD Oil Filters and HD Bearings that feature triple sealing to keep out water dust and mud making them last much longer in the extreme, as well as HD Bushings that are made of a stronger material compound to enhance the wear characteristics.

Dario Baraggia, PG&A Manager at Polaris Off-Road Vehicles EMEA said “Our Heavy Duty Parts have been developed and tested to ensure riders get the most out of their rides, taking the passion of the riders, workers and outdoor enthusiasts to the next level.”

HEAVY-DUTY BRAKE PADS

Polaris Parts introduces four new, tough handling, brake pad options. Available in sets of two pads and designed to provide a premium braking performance, riders can trust the brake pads will tackle severe mud riding, operate under extreme payload and aggressive towing. The Heavy Duty options also have an increased pad density that lasts three times longer in harsh muddy and wet conditions and a high friction capacity resulting in less effort and shorter stopping distances. The HD Brake Pads offer quiet breaking through a noise insulator which also helps to prevent squealing in all extreme conditions.

HEAVY-DUTY DRIVE BELTS

Purposely built for Heavy-Duty customers, the new Heavy-Duty Drive Belts will fit over two million Polaris Off-Road Vehicles including the Sportsman 500s, RGR 1000s, RZR XP 1000s and more. Developed in collaboration with Powertrain and clutch engineers to ensure 100% customer confidence in maximising the performance and ultimate durability of the ride. The HD Drive Belt is made from an enhanced rubber material compound that will keep the belt cool in extreme conditions and a patent cord treatment process that maximises the transfer of horsepower to the ground to help hauling heavy loads; extreme riders are now unstoppable.

HEAVY-DUTY OIL FILTER

Engineered to keep oil clean with a robust housing and steel tube centre, the Heavy-Duty Oil Filter has been designed to resist vibration and high temperatures under extreme riding conditions. With advanced synthetic material the HD Oil Filter is built to give the highest debris holding capacity, maintain oil flow and maximise performance. The Heavy-Duty oil filters will not deform under duress from the harsh and extreme conditions. The three new Heavy-Duty Oil Filters will fit over two million Polaris Off-Road Vehicles.

/in , /by

Woods launch ‘Extreme Duty’ Batwing: Woods have launched their extreme duty 15-foot (4.60 meter) Batwing, developed after more than 60 hours of interviews with operators.

The company say the BW15.70 can tame the harshest conditions including heavy brush and trees up to 11.4 cm in diameter and will cut more material in less time, making it the ideal option for crop shredding, contract farming, cooperatives, roadside and airport maintenance.

Simon Richard, UK Agent for the Woods range says “the new, advanced double triple lipped oil seal technology offered by the BW15.70 and developed for heavy duty jobs in the harshest of environments, offers the customer a market leading 6 year warranty on gearboxes including seals, and greasable quick change blade pins are easy to reach through a panel on top of the deck which features a ‘clean deck’ system making it easier to maintain and clean.

Simon adds “the BW15.70’s rounded wings and a curved leading edge, slice through tall brush, deflect impact and easily manoeuver close to obstacles. The fully baffled, 33 cm deep deck handles more material and distributes it evenly. The batwings flex 90° up, 22° down and steel tubes surrounding the perimeter absorb shocks and shrug off impact “
