STIHL enhances battery

Fineturf Machinery – delivering maintenance and contracting services to leading venues across the sporting spectrum.

STIHL has upgraded its AP 300 S battery to include built-in STIHL Connected technology, allowing professional users to monitor the working time of the battery and manage their machinery fleet efficiently.

This includes information regarding the total discharge time per day, the battery health status and the number of charge cycles completed.

The Ariens Arrow range of stand-on zero-turn mowers is now available to buy in the UK for the first time. The Arrow provides a perfect blend of power, performance and manoeuvrability, combining the comfort and speed of a zero-turn mower with compact size and agility.

The Arrow’s mowing performance is enhanced by its compact design and very low centre of gravity. At a length of only 160cm, with a cutting width of either 81cm or 91cm, the mower can be driven closely and quickly around bushes and trees.

The Ariens Arrow’s space-saving dimensions and low weight (approximately 345g) also make a noticeable difference to daily handling. The Arrow is backed by a warranty of five years or 1,000 hours (in line with the Ariens EMEAA warranty conditions).
