3. The TS25 tractor, the multi-tasking wonder from TYM

The subcompact TS25 tractor from TYM offers customers superb value along with outstanding performance. It’s a versatile machine, a multi-tasking wonder, ideal for many landscaping and sports surfaces.

It’s part of a comprehensive range of TYM tractors which extends from 19 to 100hp. All TYM tractors benefit from powerful diesel engines, hydrostatic power-steering for effortless manoeuvrability and a tight turning circle, and a heavy-duty, four-wheel-drive front axle for greater traction where needed.

Most TYM tractors can be upgraded with optional heated and air-conditioned cabs for maximum operator comfort. But models without cabs boast a handy feature as well – the ROPS roll bar can be folded down for compact, convenient storage under a low roof. They can also be fitted with an array of attachments such as front-end loaders and backhoes.

And new for 2020, all new tractors are available with a new three-year bumper to bumper warranty package. Reesink Turfcare, the UK distributor of TYM, has long been known for offering more when it comes to its service, after-sales support, parts and warranties and 2020 starts as it means to go on with the brand extending its warranties on all TYM tractors to three years.

4. STIGA compacts cater for both domestic and commercial market

STIGA, don’t just cater for the discerning domestic gardener, they also offers two high-end tractors designed and built to meet the needs of commercial operators, from contractors and estate managers, through to groundskeepers and professional landscapers.

STIGA Estate Pro 9122 XWSY Garden Tractor

Combining an expansive 122cm cutting-width with a positively cavernous 360-litre grass-collector, the four-wheel- drive Estate Pro 9122 XWSY is hard to beat when it comes to large-area work-rate. Its three-in-one design, whereby the operator can choose to collect, mulch or rear-discharge, confers the sort of versatility that’s essential for the management of varying grass-conditions; while its high-capacity 688cc Honda V-Twin engine, which develops a huge 18.1hp, brings the very best in both performance and reliability.

STIGA Tornado Pro 9121 XWSY Garden Tractor

The superbly well-equipped Tornado Pro 9121 XWSY
is a heavy-duty, 121cm side-discharge tractor capable of handling rough, overgrown grass across the very largest areas. Commercial-duty features shared with the Estate Pro include a four-wheel-drive transmission, a reinforced cutter-deck and Smart widescreen dashboard display. This model also employs Honda V-Twin power. Both machines excel in terms of pulling-power and are supplied with a tow hitch that will enable tasks to be carried out with any numerous trailed attachments (sweepers, rollers, flail mowers and striping kits).
