The FURY has the ability to cut grass up to 5.5 inches to its adjustable floating rear discharge cutting decks with anti-scalp solid front wheels, the Hi/Low blade speed control allows the blade speed to be slowed down when cutting short grass.  Designed with aerospace engineering technology and powered by an 11kWh (equivalent to 24HP) Mean Green Lithium Energy Module offering a mowing time up to 7hrs*.  The FURY provides more than enough power from its motors and controllers as fitted to the larger RIVAL, EVO and VANQUISH mowers.  With horsepower exceeding most commercial petrol mowers in its class and maximum torque from the start, the FURY proves that electric mowers can be powerful, economical and quiet.

The Impulse Drive System (IDS™) is designed with maximum power in mind, Mean Green has combined time proven planetary gearing and the latest electric hub motor technology.  The IDS™ generates unrivalled power, weight carrying capacity and speeds up to 9mph.

An Interactive Touch Screen Display allows operators to choose high/low blade speed and high/low drive speed, displays the battery charge level, machine operation status, hour meter, and service notifications.  The Blade Performance Monitor displays speed and performance of each blade to help the operator maintain optimal mowing efficiency and quality of cut.

Greenkeepers work fury

/in , , /by

Greenkeepers work fury: Greenkeepers at Caird Park Golf Club in Dundee are said to be fuming they are being forced to continue going in to work despite two of their colleagues testing positive for coronavirus, according to the region’s Evening Telegraph.

A report from BIGGA last week claimed that it was in their understanding that greenkeepers are able to keep “essential maintenance” of golf courses should they wish to, despite the UK lockdown for COVID-19 so that golfers would still have courses to play when the health crisis is over.

Union bosses are said to be backing the call for greenkeepers at the club to be off work due to two members of staff testing positive for COVID-19, with one other self-isolating due to having symptoms.

A decision to remove staff workers from the course is now being strongly backed by union bosses representing the club.

“Following the confirmation of the cases the remaining staff feel they shouldn’t be asked to go into work,” said Dundee branch secretary of the GMB, Jim Cunningham.

“The union is backing this call and we are demanding that our members should not have to go to work in the meantime. We have asked that the remaining workforce is currently removed from such  hazardous duties.”

He added: “We have been told that golf courses must be maintained so that when the current crisis is over they can immediately come back into use.

“However, we don’t believe that the greenkeepers and groundsman are essential staff currently. City council gardeners are not working at the moment and we don’t think our members should have to either.”

It is also claimed in the report that members of staff were not being supplied with the correct level of protective equipment with which to go about doing thejr jobs on the course.
