Available to customers who buy a new Sportsman 570 between 1st February and 30th April, the promotion will give customers a free upgrade to a Sportsman 570 with electric power steering (EPS) as standard, making it even easier to go further and do more, for the same price.

The promotion enables customers to save up to £900 excluding VAT with prices for the Sportsman 570 starting at £6,999 excluding VAT, and the EPS model starting at £7,899 excluding VAT**.

The new generation of Sportsman introduced to Polaris’ 2021 line-up features a sleek, modern design with all-new LED lights and work pod, alongside a host of new features like its intuitive true on-demand all-wheel-drive system that kicks in when you need it most. The Sportsman 570 EPS delivers 29.6cm ground clearance, MacPherson Strut front suspension with 20.8cm of travel, independent rear suspension with 24.1cm of travel, plus a towing capacity of 680kg – the highest towing capacity of any ATV on the market.

Overall ride performance has been enhanced thanks to a larger, more powerful 18AH battery, major improvements to the engine braking system (EBS) for safer descents and a more controlled ride, plus a new clutch for smooth engagement at low speeds – especially useful when precision is needed, like when navigating tight trails or backing up to a trailer.

Available in Sage Green, the EU package includes mirrors, a number plate bracket with light, horn and built-in factory-installed integrated indicators.

Free ATVTrac

Since October last year, Polaris Britain has worked with the leading security experts, ATVTrac, to equip all new Sportsman models with the proven tracker as standard, so riders can be confident that their new vehicle is better protected. ATVTrac’s technology and rich feature-set comes from over a decade’s worth of experience with a 94% recovery rate and recovery of over £10m worth of stolen machines to date, with updates and new features added along the way.

Free Easi Training

As well as the free upgrade and free security tracker, the Sportsman 570 comes with free Easi training for one operator. Free Easi training, RRP £180, is run by the European All-Terrain Vehicle Safety Institute and consists of a comprehensive training course to maximise the safety of Polaris riders.

For more information on this offer, please contact your local dealer.

*This promotion is available for the new 2021 Sportsman 570 Homologation EU, upgraded to the 2021 Sportsman 570 EPS Homologation EU.

Emission free weed control

/in , , /by

Emission free weed control: The 100% electric AllTrec Tool Carrier from Campey Turf Care Systems has made weed control CO2-emissions free.

Weed control is an essential task in almost every groundsman, greenkeeper, contractor and landscapers schedule, and the AllTrec with Air E-Variator or Weed Brush has made it quicker, easier and emissions-free.

The E-Variator is one of four attachments currently available for the AllTrec Carrier and it has been specifically designed for weed management on large paved and semi-paved surfaces. It works both preventively and repressively, saving up to 70% of its own energy through re-use – better known as the patented advanced air recycling system.

The unique variable airflow function (ADS) enables the machine to work in corners and around obstacles in just one pass, with operators able to fully control the attachment using the digital control screen. LPG tanks used for the E-Variator Weed Burner can be mounted to the back of the AllTrec, with a connection available for the automatic tank heater to prevent them from freezing. The closed burner system with heat recovery has gas reduction of no less than 60% and an automatic temperature regulation of 380°C.

Weeds can also be removed using the 70cm Weed Brush, which is electrically powered with three brush speeds and controlled using the onboard joystick. It can be hydraulically adjusted to any angle and used for a full day without any worry of batteries running out. All batteries come with a three-year warranty and have a lifetime of + – 2500 charge discharge cycles. The 48VDC battery uses LifePO4 technology with a capacity of 20kwh or an optional 30kwh, with onboard charging taking 4-8 hours.

The power produced from the battery means the AllTrec can also be operated using the mower or hedge cutter attachments. The hedge cutting attachment has a 75cm working width with electric motors directly powering the blades which have speeds from 2000-3000rpm. The deck is controlled using a joystick and is easy to manoeuvre for a comfortable and effective days work. The mowing deck comes in optional cutting widths of 130cm or 180cm with a variable height of cut from 30-110mm, making it perfect for use on regularly maintained grass or overgrown vegetation. When cutting with the four-blade 180cm deck, the battery will typically last for 6-8 hours and 7-9 hours using the three-blade 130cm deck.

A large-action radius and highly efficient attachments combined with low operation and maintenance costs make the AllTrec perfect for use in urban environments, sports complexes, holiday resorts and parks by contractors, local authorities and landscapers.

Headland Keeps School Disease Free

/in , /by

Headland Keeps School Disease Free: Thanks to help from Headland Amenity, the 17 hectares of grounds for rugby, tennis and cricket at Kings Bruton School have come through the winter of 2017 disease-free and stronger than ever before.  For a relatively small school, they punch well above their weight when it comes to sport and the facilities they offer their 350 pupils.

Grounds Manager, Adie Davis, and his team of 6 groundstaff are kept busy looking after the facilities. “I have been familiar with Headland products for a long time and have enjoyed success with their programmes here at the school for a number of years. On our cricket outfields & rugby pitches we’ve been using Multigreen 28-0-0 which delivers results for the full 5-6 months it promises it will.” Applied in April and then again in September for strength through the autumn/winter, this is complemented on the fine turf areas by C-Complex in various formulations: 4-3-4 used during renovation work; 7-0-7 through the cricket playing season and 5-2-10 as a spring-starter.

Headland Keeps School Disease Free

On the cricket squares, Adie has found success with the combination of Multigreen Mini and Headland’s 20/20/30 non-pesticidal tank mix. “We apply the Multigreen Mini in early autumn to take us through the winter and then once a month between October and March we supplement this with a spray of the 20/20/30 enhanced plant health mix.” Headland’s industry-leading 20-20-30 mix combines Seamac ProTurf Fe and Liquid Turf Hardener plant protectants and Turfite elicitor that work together to strengthen the plant against disease. The combination of products applied at Kings Bruton delivers enhanced root development, disease resistance and strong colour. “This programme has kept all disease, including Fusarium and Dollar Spot, at bay – which I know groundsmen at other schools are suffering from.”

As the school heads towards its 500-year anniversary celebrations in 2019, Adie is delighted with the success achieved with their current nutritional regime. “I’ve worked closely with Headland’s Alex Hawkes, who is very knowledgeable, for a number of years and it’s thanks to him that we now have a combination of products that are really working. We get a lot of comments from staff, parents and local clubs that they’ve never seen turf quite like ours, our cricket areas in particular, which makes all the hard work worthwhile.”
