Will Parker is busy running Parkers Pitches, a contracting business specialising in all aspects of sports turf maintenance and construction across East Anglia.
Working at Ipswich Rugby Club, about 30 miles away from their Woolpit depot, they offer full contract mowing, which is a 7-hectare site
He used to use a 1.9m mower for cutting. “We found we’re not getting through the ground quick enough – it would take all day to cut this site,” he said.
In looking for a wider mower delivering the output required without compromising on quality of cut, the only option on the market was the Major CS Pro.
The CS Pro is a multipurpose mower for compact tractors. The 3.0m model requires a minimum of 30-hp on 540 PTO. The machine has 4 rotors – two in the middle deck and one on each wing – fitted with 16 blades capable of processing dense vegetation yet clean enough for fine turf applications. Front and rear rollers on each deck eliminate scalping and produce a striped finish. Wings can be folded up to 2.0m transport width.
The body of the Major CS Pro produced from high-performance Strenx 700 MC structural steel makes it stronger yet light enough to fit onto a trailer.
“With the 3.0m CS Pro we can cut a 7-hectare site in 4 to 5 hours. It used to take a whole day! Now we can go to a second site on the same day which saves a massive amount of time and effort for us,” enthused Will.
“We recommend the CS Pro to any sports club with wide areas to cut. From 20mm to 80mm it will do a great job. We couldn’t ask for anything more from this mower,” Will concludes.
