BTME preview – Jacobsen: Hall M, Stand M9

Following a review of their marketing strategy Jacobsen have taken the decision to return to BTME on an annual basis. Their policy will be to alternate between small and large stands, so for 2015 they will have a limited presence, but will return in 2016 with a more significant stand.

The focus on stand M9 will be the Jacobsen MP493 wide area rough mower, one of the first two machines in a series of new mowers, manufactured at their European headquarters in Ipswich. The MP range, powered by 49hp and 65hp Kubota diesel engines, will eventually provide multiple mowing options from a single design platform.

The Jacobsen MP493 batwing mower features three, all new rotary decks, manufactured from high strength, lightweight steel with a 150 mm break-back system on the wing decks help prevent damage.

Also on display will be the Jacobsen Eclipse2 petrol-electric hybrid walking greens mower with frequency of cut technology that provides unrivalled consistent mowing across all greens.
