Autoguide gets Moore for its money.

Autoguide gets Moore for its money. Autoguide Equipment has announced its purchase of the manufacturing and marketing rights of the Moore Mower with immediate effect.

The Moore Mower designed by industry veteran Frank Moore, has been added to the growing range of specialist mowing machines manufactured by Autoguide.

The mower is a 36in (90cm) cut ride on cylinder mower offering grass collection with the ability to empty the box without leaving the driving seat. The unique high tip, forward dump grass box allows discharge into containers up to 1.15m (45") high - or onto a compost heap.

Power is from a 16HP Briggs and Stratton Vanguard petrol engine driving an Eaton transaxle and two independent hydraulic systems for the attachment.

A three-point hitch system is designed into the mower so the cutting cylinder can be easily removed for maintenance and allows the unit to be offset for mowing around flowerbeds or under shrubs.

Alternatively a hydraulically rotary roller mulching mower can be quickly fitted, this is ideal for mowing longer grass avoiding the need to collect clippings whilst leaving a striped finish.

Full width rollers are standard, the total machine width is just 46" (117cm) enabling the unit to pass through a 4ft gateway and the whole machine is as manoeuvrable as a 'walk-behind' mower. Particularly important to all users is the very low vibration, which peaks at 2.5m/s2 and is generally lower in actual use.

Commenting on his new acquisition Autoguide Managing Director Richard Robinson said, "The adding of the Moore Mower to our range confirms our commitment to offer our customers a range of British built equipment for the niche market. We are very pleased that Frank Moore has entrusted us with his product and intend to provide a first class spare parts and service back up to old and new customers."
