TRACTORS
“
Jacobsen has a decade ’ s worth of experience with the
Eclipse range , and that has been reflected in the features of this new machine .
By having the reels turning in time with the wheels you ’ re able to keep a consistent frequency of cut regardless of who is mowing , but still have the option to increase it without reducing the mowing speed . This control is taken further with individual unit control that can adapt the cutting configuration to vary wheel runs and truly eliminate triplex ring .
Attention has also been paid to the access and maintenance aspects of the machine . A swing-out centre unit has been added for quick and easy cleaning , maintenance or swapping the unit . No tools are required to swing the unit out with the removal of a lynchpin that is then used to hold the unit in the swung-out position all that is needed .
Seven , nine , eleven or fifteen blade reels are available for the E360 ELiTE to allow for varied applications of the machine from golf greens and tees to football pitches and ornamental gardens .
For more information or a demonstration of the Eclipse 360 ELiTE , please contact your local Jacobsen dealer .
All of these changes were made following a 360-durability review that has also included the addition of new brushless lift actuators that have ten times the lifespan of the previous option .
