Ransomes Jacobsen, a Textron company and manufacturer of turf maintenance equipment, debuted its new Jacobsen HR3 ELiTE rotary mower. According to Jacobsen, the HR3 ELiTE leverages Jacobsen’s electric drivetrain, powered by Samsung SDI lithium battery technology, to deliver a quality cut with zero emissions, less noise and reduced operating costs.
The HR3 ELiTE pairs its electrically driven transaxle with electric motors for its cutting system, eliminating emissions and decreasing noise. The mower’s low-noise floor enables operation near residential areas without causing disturbances.
The rotary mower’s low noise level helps create a safer operating environment for the user, and the high-spec suspension seating and controls further aim to improve the operator experience. Its tilt-sensor technology enhances safety when operating on slopes. For cutting along thoroughfares, the HR3 ELiTE is road-safe, with LED lighting and mirrors.
The HR3 ELiTE’s Samsung SDI lithium battery system utilizes the same zero-maintenance technology in Jacobsen mowers, Cushman utility vehicles and E-Z-GO golf cars. The battery system provides more than 40 kilowatt-hours of energy for all-day runtime and is backed by a five-year battery warranty. An onboard charger simplifies recharging and is designed for overnight use.
The HR3 ELiTE has a cutting width of 1.52 meters (4.98 feet) and an adjustable cutting height. A high-strength steel frame with solid bumper rails protects the mower from everyday use, and onboard diagnostics allow operators to monitor the mower’s performance in real time.
The HR3 ELiTE is now available from authorized distributors and dealers in Jacobsen. For more information about the HR3 ELiTE and Jacobsen’s complete line of turf equipment, click here.
