Manufactured in Europe, this innovative chipper is designed to deliver professional-grade performance and tackle tough jobs with ease, making it ideal for landscapers, tree surgeons, and contractors.

Its compact design ensures easy maneuverability in tight spaces without compromising power, while its durable construction guarantees long-term reliability. At an introductory price of £8,750 plus VAT, the TRX120 PRO offers value for professionals seeking high-performance equipment.

Wiedenmann UK: Super 1300 M (Stand A080)

The new Super 1300 M will sit alongside the Super 1300 S as a smaller sized stablemate to the larger Super 500 and 600 models.

While the Super 1300 S is purely a turf sweeper for material collection; the Super 1300 M offers different functionality. The 1300 S uses two rotary brushes to sweep grass cuttings, leaves, and debris into its 1600 litre tank; the 1300 M is equipped with an all-new multi head unit onto which flail or scarifying blades can be fitted. This allows the Super 1300 M to cut and collect in one pass or scarify and collect in a single pass, depending on fitted blades, and hence, broadly similar to the hugely popular 500 and 600 versions.

The Super 1300 S requires a minimum 25hp tractor while, the 1300 M requires 35hp. High dump allows emptying into trailers up to 1.7 m. An optional fill indicator alerts when the tank is 90% full. A working width of 1.3 m allows manoeuvrability through tight spaces and amongst trees. Choose either fully trailed with a drawbar hitch or semi-mounted via a 3-point-linkage.

Henry Seach Ltd: Bobcat Walk Behind Mowers WB700 (Stand E050)

The Bobcat WB700 walk-behind mower delivers the same exceptional cutting performance and zero-turn maneuverability as Bobcat’s renowned ride-on models, but in a more compact size.

Designed for precision mowing in tight, landscaped areas, the WB700 offers increased stability on slopes and minimal ground disturbance, making it ideal for challenging terrains.

Equipped with a rugged TufDeck™ cutting system, the WB700 ensures a commercial-grade cut and comes with a 2,000-hour bumper-to-bumper warranty. Available with 48″ and 52″ cutting decks, it’s powered by a reliable Kawasaki FS series engine and features Hydro-Gear ZT-2800 hydrostatic transaxles for smooth operation.

With large 20-inch drive tires, a 3.8-gallon fuel capacity, and an ergonomic handle design, the WB700 is built for comfort and efficiency, making it the go-to choice for professional landscapers.
