SPECIALIST MOWERS
From our very first conversation with Bobby McDougall at INFINICUT ®, we could see how the purchase of these mowers would be a fantastic step forward in reducing our fuel usage and improving our green credentials .
“ From our very first conversation with Bobby McDougall at INFINICUT ®, we could see how the purchase of these mowers would be a fantastic step forward in reducing our fuel usage and improving our green credentials ” explains David . “ Once we ’ d decided battery was the way to go , it didn ’ t take us long to settle on the INFINICUT ’ s ® – we had a demonstration of both the rotary machine and floating head cylinder mower and were so impressed that we didn ’ t look at anything else !”
“ We thought the cut quality of our previous petrol-driven machine would be hard to beat but the cut we get from the INFINICUT ® SM34 , together with the powerful suction , is superb .” Used for the post-match clean-up cut , another thing that has impressed David and the team is the noise – or lack of it – emitted from the mower , equipped with a UXR lithium battery . “ Sometimes it would be half an hour or more before we could resume work after a fixture because of media interviews happening around the ground but with the SM34 we can be out and cutting straight away .”
“ It ’ s comfortable to operate and simple to control . We can manually adjust the height of cut really easily and settings such as the walking speed can all be set via the INFINIApp ® which means that in the winter , when the ground is softer and the plant is more vulnerable , we can simply slow it right down and achieve a better result .”
Also delivered in July 2022 was an INFINICUT ® FL34 . “ This has been another fantastic purchase and the floating head has without doubt improved the quality of cut and , in turn , had a really positive impact on plant health even in this relatively short period of time .” David concludes , “ These machines tick a lot of boxes but ultimately do the job of cutting and presenting a first-class surface better than any other machine we ’ ve used .”
