John Deere Press Room 2009

With their strength, durability, quality of cut and time-saving adjustments, John Deere’s new golf product range will keep greenkeepers and groundsmen moving – and cutting and spraying – with speed, precision and power.

John Deere's largest product launch to date combines existing solutions with advanced innovations in engineering. New products include a range of mowers, cutting units and a sprayer, all of which are designed to enable operators to work more efficiently and achieve a higher quality finish on golf courses and other sports turf areas.

The new line-up includes Quick Adjust 5 and Quick Adjust 7 cutting units, featuring a unique Speed Link system for extremely quick height of cut adjustment; the 220e E-Cut hybrid walk-behind greens mower; the 7500e, 8500e and 8000e E-Cut hybrid fairway mowers; the 7200 PrecisionCut trim & surrounds mower; the 8800 TerrainCut rotary mower; and the HD200 SelectSpray turf sprayer.

Pointing to the vital feedback the company receives from its customers, John Deere says operator needs, along with industry experience, have guided the development of each new piece of equipment.

"John Deere’s Feedback programme is all about listening and reacting to what our customers have to say about our products, so that we can design the right equipment with the exact features they're looking for," says Gregg Breningmeyer, director of sales and marketing, John Deere Golf.
