Introduction
The remote control mower industry has developed rapidly in the past decade, and the influx of options from the numerous manufacturers has made the choosing of remote control mowers a complex decision.
The development of the machinery options comes down to the sheer demand from consumers, due to the several added benefits that the remote-controlled mowers give compared to their manually operated counterparts.
In this blog we will discuss the range of remote-controlled mowers on the market, their benefits & which model/manufacturer would suit your needs best.
There are, in our opinion, three brilliant machines to choose from when considering a remote-controlled mower. These are the URS 100 on tracks made by Stella in Germany and the Crawler on tracks & Taurus both made by Köppl who are also based in Germany.
The benefits
Too often there are difficult to reach areas that require mowing but are very unpleasant or unsafe for the operator. Such environments include steep ground, loose substrate, mowing under trees and shrubbery, along hedge rows, through stinging nettles, high grass and even areas around wasp nests. However, there is a solution, a remote-controlled mower.
Our Remote-controlled mowers are capable machines if you have a problem with very steep slopes in potentially dangerous or unpleasant areas. With its incredible capabilities they really are the go-to mower for many. Given the extra cost required on alternate machines that often do not offer any more productivity or reliability.
The Stella URS 100 – Remote controlled hydraulic Brushcutter
Works on extreme slopes up to 55°. The operator is always safe, away from emissions and dangers. The balanced weight distribution, the wide track of the crawler chassis and the low centre of gravity ensure soil-friendly and safe off-road use. The URS 100 does not require any time-consuming and ground-damaging turning manoeuvres. The mulching result is excellent with the pendulum wing blades both when driving forwards and in reverse. The robust rotary mower distributes the clippings evenly over the working width.
The patented caterpillar drive with the ingenious guide rollers ensures traction on all types of soil. For fast driving or extreme turning manoeuvres on the steepest slopes. The proven drive concept with axial piston pump and generator motors is extremely robust and works very sensitively. The electrically reversible radial cooler protects the hydraulic system from overheating, even at extreme temperatures and when used on rough terrain. The neatly distributed hydraulic hoses and a professional wiring harness ensure durability, even under harsh working conditions. The optimal and sensitive control of the remote control increases comfort and gives the operator maximum safety in all driving situations. The URS is a great alternative to a ride on flail mower.
The URS 100 is powered by the high-quality HONDA iGXV 800 EFI engine with 26 HP and 55 Nm of torque. The electronic engine control with modern petrol injection ensures optimum power transmission, even under the toughest conditions. The two-stage 5" Donaldson air filter with tangential pre-filter in front of the main element protects the engine even in the dustiest conditions!
The electromagnetic blade clutch with the safety brake drives the large multi-wedge blade shaft via a C-V-belt tensioned by a tension roller. The overlapping flexible chain curtain on the mower protects against stone chips.
The Köppl Crawler Remote control 23hp power unit
Work safety, flexibility, short set-up times and working comfort were the main goals in the development of the Köppl Crawler.
The machine with 23hp power and hydraulic drive is extremely compact, manoeuvrable, and perfect for work on slopes as well as in difficult to reach places.
The Crawler’s excellent traction and load-bearing capacity also allows it to be used for steep slopes up to an angle of 50°. The remote control with a range of 300m makes it possible to handle the Crawler comfortably from a distance. With a wide range of suitable attachments, the Crawler can be used as a solution to almost any Groundscare requirement.
