Visitors to the Etesia UK Stand on C050 at SALTEX 2015, held at the NEC Birmingham from 4-5 November, will be able to get their hands on the company’s free 2016 calendar.

The stars of the new calendar are Alanna Saskia Thomas and Kirsty Howe, who pose alongside some of Etesia and Pellenc’s market leading products. The girls will be joining the Etesia UK team on the stand where they will be available to sign the calendars and visitors will also have the opportunity to have a photo taken with them.

Those who receive the calendar will be treated to a new picture each month, such as the girls revealing their inner warriors to represent the extreme cutting capabilities of the Attila brushcutter; a western style theme for the new Buffalo ride-on mower; a Christmas shot which highlights the efficiency of the new Etesia Donky Electric wheel barrow and the girls taking it easy showcasing the effortless operation of the ETMower robotic mower.

The two girls also model alongside the company’s leading range of Pellenc battery powered equipment which is exclusively distributed in the UK by Etesia UK.

Visitors will also be able to view a range of pedestrian and ride-on rotary mowers and a range of Pellenc battery-powered equipment.

National green services company, Glendale, has recently added 100 Etesia PRO 46 pedestrian mowers to its fleet – reinforcing its reputation of using the best machines on the market for each task.

In 2015 Glendale celebrates a milestone anniversary – it is 25 years since the commencement of its first contract. The 25th anniversary represents remarkable longevity, sustainability and success. Part of this success lies in Glendale’s commitment to using the finest equipment in order to carry out work to the highest standard. It is for this reason that the company has chosen to work with Etesia UK as its preferred partner for pedestrian rotary mowers.

Glendale’s recent purchase of 100 machines consists of 60 PRO 46 PBE’s and 40 PRO46 PBTS’s. Designed to meet the rigours of a wide variety of commercial grass cutting applications, Etesia’s PRO 46 pedestrian rotaries are fast becoming the number one choice for landscapers and contractors who want durable machines without compromising on performance.

The Single bladed Etesia PRO 46 PBE push and PRO 46 PBTS self-propelled models have a 5hp Briggs and Stratton engine. Cutting width is 46cm, the detachable grass box which has an indicator to let the operator know when it is full, has a capacity of 52 litres and the overall weight is just 37kg; making the machine easy to manoeuvre.

To enhance the operator’s ease of use, the handlebars are ergonomically shaped and mounted with new ‘soft-touch’ controls reducing pressure on hands and fingers of operators. Extensive testing of these latest models has shown low vibration levels that meet stringent health and safety guidelines.

Stuart Darbyshire, Commercial Director at Glendale said: “These two models of Etesia mowers have been used by Glendale for a number of years and provide a high quality, durable and good value machine for the task they are required to complete.”

All the way from the Highlands of Scotland to the tip of Cornwall, Glendale operates in England, Scotland and Wales and Etesia’s mowers will be used at operational contracts in all three parts of the UK. The machines will be used daily on the various mowing rounds to both back up larger ride-on machines and to fully cut areas with difficult access, something which Stuart is particularly impressed with.

“The nature of these machines means that they can both collect and drop, giving us the flexibility to do either with just one machine.

“Glendale has had worked with Etesia for over 10 years, and has bought their pedestrian rotary mowers for much of that period with approximately 300 working in the company today.

“The deal with Etesia underlines our commitment to use only the highest quality machinery.”

Etesia launch rear roller for perfect lawn striping

The professional’s choice in cut and collect rotary mowers has just got better with the addition of an Etesia rear roller kit for easy effortless striping.

Etesia pedestrian mowers have become world renowned for cutting and collecting in all weather conditions – even the wet, but before now were not available with a rear roller kit for that all important presentation.

The first Etesia model available with the rear roller kit is the range of 41cm cutting width Duocut machines which are now able to cut, collect, stripe and by fitting the mulching insert, mulch – making this particular range of rotary mowers a must in anyone’s armoury. Rear roller kits to fit the 46cm cutting width models, which are Etesia’s most popular models, will be available soon.

No tools are required to fit the roller kits to an Etesia machine – just simply hang the free floating roller on two locating pins behind the grass box. Weighing 9kgs, the roller has been designed so that it will operate free-floating at any height the machine is mowing at – ensuring perfect striping no matter the weather or height of cut required.

“We’ve been asked if we could add a rear roller to our pedestrian mowers for as long as I can remember and I am thrilled that we now can,” said Les Malin, operations director at Etesia UK. “Our products are known to be robust and innovative but we have seen a number of our customers adding their own roller kits, which wasn’t ideal. This new rear roller kit will open our machines up to a whole new market where presentation of pitches or lawns is vitally important.”

Pellenc has launched the Selion C21 HD chainsaw – the lightest professional pruner on the market at just 2kgs.

Pruning requires specialised knowledge and suitable equipment. Pellenc offers arborists a model that will meet their expectations in terms of weight, balance, manoeuvrability, and power. Equipped with numerous innovations, the new Selion C21 HD chainsaw has an exceptional power to weight ratio and allows you to work without noise pollution, without pollution and with unmatched working comfort.

Four innovative safety features include:

• Kick-back sensor with electronic start-up. It instantly triggers an electric chain brake in the event of a fall or kickback, and is 8 times more rapid than a petrol-operated chainsaw chain brake.
• The low kickback Oregon chains. The rebound effect, if it occurs, will be much less violent than on a conventional chain saw.
• Self-diagnostic system of the tool. The Selion verifies that the electronic kickback sensor is operational upon first use, if it is, the machine will operate!
• Start-up trigger. Double press start-up prevents accidental operation of the saw.

As with all other Pellenc products, the Selion C21 HD chainsaw uses the ultra-high capacity technology of the Pellenc lithium battery and guarantees non-polluting, odourless operation with quick start-up and up to one day battery life when fitted with the Poly 5 ULiB battery.

The Pellenc ULB battery range is designed for professional tool use. Pellenc is the only professional tool manufacturer to offer a whole range of tools that operate with ultra-high capacity multipurpose batteries.

Ideal tools for all situations where noise and emissions are not wanted, Pellenc are used by groundsmen, landscapers, arborists and contractors for grounds maintenance, or close to hospitals, cemeteries, schools and other noise sensitive areas.

All Pellenc tools now come with a comprehensive three year commercial warranty as standard.

Pellenc is sold exclusively in the UK by Etesia UK.

Etesia has launched the new Hydro 100 III ride-on mower; which marks the era of a new line for the Etesia ride-on models.

What is immediately striking about the new H100 III is its new look – A front which is more aggressive and more expressive with tight lines and integrated side body panels for a streamline look.

While it capitalises on the strengths of the previous model, the new Etesia Hydro 100 III ride-on mower is innovative, offering commercial users even greater efficiency and operator comfort. The Hydro 100 III is derived from a unique concept to allow mowing and collection in all weather conditions; meaning it is the perfect mower for professional users who demand the ultimate machine for extreme mowing and collection requirements.

It has a new powerful 18HP Kawasaki engine, and a large 500-litre grass box that can be emptied in seconds thanks to its hydraulic tipping – The Hydro 100 III is a model that goes beyond existing standards.

New features include:

• New engine for more power
• New steering system for greater comfort
• New transmission for better productivity
• A differential lock for better traction
• A larger fuel tank for longer running time

The new H100 III boasts a modern hydraulic drive transmission with differential lock for improved traction and drivability. Its 18 HP twin-cylinder Kawasaki engine and its larger 14-litre fuel tank give it more power and range. The cutting deck with rear central ejection combined with two counter-rotating blades, while the high-clearance bridge and the large box make it an undisputed standard-setter for mowing and collection.

Thanks to its new look, the Hydro 100 III cutting deck provides the user with a machine capable of providing the perfect mix – 100% effective collection or mulching, giving you the best of both functions. The optional mulching insert can be set up in a few seconds without any tools allowing you to mulch with an unmatched quality.

The hydro 100 III is available with a range of accessories allow it to be active throughout the year undertaking various applications which include mowing with collection, mowing, mulching, spreading, towing and road cleaning. It is a true multi-functional professional user machine.
