The BB650 edge cutter in action.

Belgian manufacturer Jo Beau Products has recently launched a new range of garden machinery for spring, summer and autumn: the Landscaper-line™. From now on, Jo Beau products positions itself as the reference and total partner for garden contractors, urban and municipal green services and rental companies. A brief overview of this complete offering.

The new Landscaper line™ range is a perfect complement to the existing range of garden machinery, rather intended for winter use, such as stump tillers or shredders... It offers scarifiers, edge cutters and cable pullers, aerators, a seeder, a turf cutter, a leaf blower, a rough terrain mower and a wood splitter that can be used from spring to autumn. Towards the spring season, here we take a closer look at some gardening machines that you certainly won't be able to do without in the coming weeks and months.

The BB650 is ultra compact thanks to its handlebars that are fully collapsible.

 Edge cutters

Two models are available: the BB650 and the BB650+. The BB650+ comes with a trenching blade and coil carrier to lay a cable in the ground in one motion and act as a cable-laying device for such things as the perimeter wire/barrier of a mowing robot. The DC wire is fed through a tube through the knife and laid in the ground at a depth of about 5 centimeters. This is a safe depth, which prevents damage to this wire during subsequent lawn care (think aeration or overseeding). 

The edge trimmer creates seamless edges for cleanly defined borders around the house, pool or trees in a fraction of the time it would take by hand. The unit moves backward, not forward, to maintain a clear view of the work. The height-adjustable wheels can be locked to drive in a straight line. But if a more erratic path is involved, they can be unlocked and rotated (swivel rear wheels) to follow the edge. 

The blades are operated from the handlebars, which can also be adjusted in height. "An interesting detail is that the handlebars can be completely folded down, making a trailer unnecessary for transportation," adds Christophe Beauprez, managing director of Jo Beau Products. 

The H530 aerator is easy to operate with the lever on the handlebar, which can also be fully folded.

Aerators

Four models are available. Models H424 and H530 are self-propelled, while models TA10 and TA12 are trailed versions. The hollow pins provide excellent aeration, better air and water absorption, and thus a green lawn. 

"Operation is very simple via the lever on the steering wheel and, again, the steering wheel can be completely folded down. The special features of the trailed models are the larger working width and the optional addition of weight containers to ensure optimal penetration into the soil," says Christophe Beauprez.

The SC550 turf cutter also has four-wheel drive for better traction and stability.

With a working width of 457 mm, the Jo Beau® turf cutter is designed to complete the most difficult jobs quickly and easily. The SC550 is equipped with a five-speed gearbox, including two cutting speeds and two conveying speeds, plus reverse gear. The turf cutter also offers four-wheel drive for better traction and stability.

The highly ergonomic handle placement increases operator comfort, while the simple operation significantly reduces the effort required to lower the blade into the ground. The simple design also makes service and maintenance easier, with fewer parts. "To minimize vibration, the handlebar is mounted on two vibration dampers. The depth adjustment is done per 6 mm, with a maximum of 63.5 mm," Beauprez adds. 

Other highlights of the Jo Beau machines are the Honda engines fitted to all models and the three-year warranty. 

"We are experiencing tremendous growth in exports. The arrival of the Landscaper line™ illustrates our continuous drive for innovation. We strive to offer something that does not yet exist on the market. In short, we innovate where others stop," concludes Christophe Beauprez.
