McConnel is set to break new ground at IOG SALTEX unveiling a series of innovative attachments for its remote control multi-functional ROBOCUT machine.

The new accessories open up a host of new business opportunities for customers – allowing them to transform ROBOCUT into an all-terrain snow blower, stump grinder, sweeper, and soil grader.

Five new easy-to-fit accessories are available, including:

- A high-performance 1.5m rotary mower. Hydraulically driven with a heavy duty belt drive and a side discharge, the machine’s three rotors propel six cutting blades at 2,200 rpm – delivering a fine cut finish perfect for the horticultural, landscaping and amenities sectors.
- A robust stump-grinder featuring a high-speed cutting wheel armed with heavy-duty tungsten teeth. The machine can handle tree and bush roots and is ideal for dealing with unwanted tree stumps in previously inaccessible areas.
- A snow-blower. Armed with a high-velocity ejection unit, the machine provides a safe and effective solution when clearing roads and paths in hard-to-reach and potential dangerous locations.
- The universal blade is equally at home clearing snow or grading soil. It features a hydraulically adjustable blade angle and a replaceable steel blade face.
- A sweeping brush that helps operators clear up following grass-cutting. With a working width of 1.5m, it’s fast and effective over rough, steep-sided ground, removing debris at speeds of up to 7km/h

The new attachments complement a state-of-the-art machine which already features a best-in-class 1.3 metre flailhead that cuts everything from grass to gorse.

Designed to deliver exceptional stability, ROBOCUT can tackle the toughest terrain and master slopes up to 55 degrees. It also improves safety by removing operators from hazardous areas and allowing precise proportional control of all key functions up to 150 metres.
