MP493 3939B
T H White proudly hosts Ransomes Jacobsen machinery at Windsor this year with an array of new products for the municipal sector and an exciting preview.

We will be launching a new product, the Ransomes MP493, the first in a series of new mowers to be manufactured at Ransomes European headquarters in Ipswich. Primarily targeted at the municipal sector, the MP range will provide multiple options from a single design platform.

This first machine is a wide area rotary mower powered by a 49hp Kubota diesel engine and featuring three all new rotary decks - one out-front and two wing decks. With a cutting width of up to 3.2 metres and height of cut ranging from 25mm - 120mm, this new mower has a transport width of just 1.65 metres with the wing decks folded, making it highly manoeuvrable in tight spaces and readily transportable. The lightest mower in its class due to its ground up design and use of high strength steel, the MP493 will benefit from significant fuel savings as a result of its reduced weight. The series is set to redefine the municipal moving industry.

From the Iseki brand comes another new product - the Iseki SF450 our front cut and collect mower with an impressive 1300 litre collector. Its high mow speed, permanent 4-wheel drive, wide mower deck and a larger capacity collector ensures the SF450 is more efficient than its competitors, increasing productivity and reducing operating costs over the life of the machine. The energy-efficient 48 hp diesel engine, the most powerful unit in this product segment, is renowned for its reliability and high torque at low rpm. Its location lowdown in the chassis results in a low centre of gravity, which aids mowing on slopes and banks.

As well as launching new product from Ransomes and Iseki, T H White will be exhibiting the full line up of high performance cut and collect machines from Iseki; the SXG series family.

Also featuring will the Ransomes pedestrian mower range featuring new chain drive system and re-designed controls. The high productivity HR300 with both a rotary and flail deck will be on display. The HR300 features hydraulic deck drive, superior operator comfort and control environment, and some of the lowest whole body vibration figures on the market today.

T H White will also be exhibiting products from industry leading brands such as Weidenmann, Amazone, McConnel, Kawasaki, and New Holland.
