Taking centre stage on the Etesia UK stand at SALTEX
2017 was the new Bahia Hydro 80 MKHP4 E-Connect ride-on mower, which also won
the SALTEX 2017 innovation award.
Visitors to the show
were able to get a first glimpse at the new model ahead of its official 2018
release.
Thanks to a series of clever technological
innovations, the new E-Connect Hydro 80 is even easier to use and a pleasure to
work with.
Featuring a membrane keypad and a
new LCD display, the control panel on this machine is intended to be as
simple as possible to work with while giving you all the information you need
at your fingertips.
Another innovation is the RFID antenna, with the
key ignition replaced by the use of RFID cards for simple, touch-sensitive
starting. This also means you can set up various user profiles to give
particular people the right to use the machine, while it helps guard against
theft, too.
Benefiting from a full shut down system, the
battery can be protected and saved during extended machine stops. This also
allows you to work on it in safety, and transport the machine without worry.
An app is available to allow you to recognise and display nearby
machines with Bluetooth, while additional information about the machine,
instruction manuals and available accessories, straightforward ordering of
parts and accessories, as well as easy monitoring of maintenance periods and
costs are all close at hand.
The Hydro 80 is a versatile machine that
can collect in all conditions, also benefiting from a mulching
insert included as standard.
The 80cm cutting width, 240 litre
collecting box and impressive Kawasaki FS481H 11.7 kW
engine give it the cutting performance and raw power to impress while
operating.
Thanks to a range of additional accessories, users are able to
extend the versatility of your machine so that you are ready for any scenario
when working.
Commenting
on the launch of the Bahia MKHP4 E-Connect, Etesia UK operations director said:
“This machine will appeal to fleet managers, who wish to keep accurate records
on what the machine has been doing in terms of maintenance, costings,
performance, and output.
"It can also be fitted with a range of attachments for
a wide range of applications.”
