Eco Clipper FM4 Sport for sporting grounds

Eco Clipper offers large area mowers that help field managers mini-mize mowing costs while producing a clean cut result . The Eco Clipper mowing system was originally developed to replace the cylinder mower in turfgrass production . The goal was to main-tain the cutting performance of a properly tuned cylinder mower , but not the high maintenance requirement and sensitivity to mowing conditions , like wet grass and weeds .
The system
The smooth cutting decks with fast ro-tating small blades ensure a high quality of cut and a good distribution of the clippings . The clippings are also well spread in wet grass . This makes it possi-ble to schedule this mower almost inde-pendently of the weather .
Due to the electrically driven blades , the mower is very economical and quiet . The large wheels and clever deck linking system ensure good contour following and enable high mowing speeds .
Municipalities and sports field and park managers have also discovered the ad-vantages of the Eco Clipper mowing system . For them , Eco Clipper offers the EC-FM4 Sport . This 4.11 m wide mower has four independent cutting decks . The forward position provides excellent visi-bility and comfort for the tractor opera-tor .
The Benefits
Users report high productivity gains , a factor two compared to 5-gang selfpropelled cylinder mowers , and appreciate the low maintenance and the ability to schedule the mowing even under less favourable mowing conditions , such as early morning dew and wet autumn .
