STIHL goes zero-turn (in the US)
IT’S NOT OFTEN you get money
back from a Government agency but, as part of its “Control the roll” program, ACC New Zealand is offering a $180 cash back to farmers who purchase a Crush Protection Device (CPD).
Accidental quad bike roll overs continue to cause serious injuries and fatalities on our farms but CPDs create a space for survival during a roll over.
The $180 cash back applies to purchases of Quadbar, Quadbar flexi and ATV LifeGuard CPDs and you can redeem the cash back on up to two selected CPDs.
This offer does not include the QuadGuard product from LifeGuard.
Businesses with up to 99 employees with the following Classification Units (CUs) are eligible for this cashback offer: • 1230–sheepandbeefcattlefarming • 1240–sheepfarming
• 1250–beefcattlefarming
• 1300–dairycattlefarming
• 1590–livestockfarming(nec) • 2200–huntingandtrapping.
STIHL Inc and Briggs & Stratton
have announced a new manufacturing relationship that will add zero-turn (ZTR) mowers to the offerings of STIHL in the US for the first time.
Manufactured by Briggs & Stratton and branded STIHL, the new domestic and professional products will be available in select authorised local STIHL Dealers in the US from January 2023.
Best known here for its engines, the Briggs & Stratton portfolio in the US already includes the well-known Ferris brand of ZTRs which boasts an extensive range, including diesel powered models.
