The LEIT-2 is a very compact, wireless controller that can operate 2 valves. It uses a photovoltaic cell to collect ambient light and generate power for itself (no AC power or batteries needed). It can be mounted directly onto the cover of valve boxes, a galvanized steel pole, or onto a valve itself.

The RC2 handset operates 100% of the controller functions, with an operating distance of 300' or 100 meters line-of-sight. It operates up to 198 stations.

Hitch-N-Ditch attaches to a four-wheel drive vehicle to assist in laying any pipe up to 2” in diameter. Dig a hole to the depth you desire, attach the piping to the Hitch-N-Ditch, and drive. The piping is both installed and covered. The product will install the piping in a straight line, or allow for gradual turns.

Sub-Compact Mowers

The ZMaster Z300 series sub-compact mowers offer contractors a “gateway solution” that provides property accessibility and mowing efficiency. They are small enough to fit through standard 36" and 42" gates, yet large and fast enough to deliver significant productivity gains over a walk-behind.

The 34" and 40" cutting decks are powered by a 19hp Kawasaki V-twin engine. A cast-iron spindle housing with a 9-3/8" base absorbs impact loads and distributes them across the seven-gauge steel deck shell. The rubber discharge chute allows for close trimming without damaging the chute or landscape structures.

Pest Control Device

Designed for use with underground sprinkler systems, Skeet-R-Gone is a concentrate injection device that quickly and easily treats a landscape for mosquitoes and other pests through a new or existing irrigation system. It includes its own controller, pump, enclosure, and mixing chamber.

To operate, each zone in the irrigation system is run for an additional one minute (30 seconds to mix and distribute the concentrate and 30 seconds to flush the zone) longer than the ordinary runtime. This device is different than a fertigation unit in that it is not distributing the concentrate for a zone’s entire runtime.

Ground Perfection Mats

Made of ½" thick polyethylene, AlternaMATS ground protection mats virtually eliminate the need for ground restoration by protecting turf and landscaped areas from damage. They can withstand 60-ton loads and are guaranteed to last for 6 years. They provide traction in sand and mud and link together to create a continuous roadway or large working platform.

Advanced Pond Skimmers

Pro Series skimmers provide mechanical filtration to assure water clarity and a healthy environment for fish and plants. A mesh screen removes large debris and Bio-tech brush panels effectively filter and clean the water.

Designed to be easily camouflaged with natural materials or faux rock lids, each skimmer housing is molded from high-density polyethylene for all-weather durability. Removable top lids provide access for placement of recirculation pumps and periodic cleaning. These skimmers are available in eight sizes.

Web-based Business Management Software

From getting a proposal to a client to overseeing an installation to forecasting next year’s profits, envista software was designed to manage every aspect of a landscape contractor’s business. It is web-based and completely integrated, allowing you to access all areas of your business from your truck, on location, or in your office.

The program includes many automated features, such as GPS, accounting software, and a photo database library for estimating. It is easy to learn and use, and can be customized to meet whatever business goals you set.

Pocket-Sized Time Tracking Device

Designed for workers on the go who visit several jobsites a day, PocketClock tracks worker attendance on a Palm Pilot, where each person clocks himself in and out using a personalized PIN. Because it works on a standard Palm Pilot, it is portable and travels with the crew.

When a worker clocks in, he is prompted for the jobsite he is at and the cost code he is performing. At the end of a pay period, all of the records download into PC software that creates accurate timecards and detailed reports for each employee. Payroll review and preparation can then be finished quickly.

Automated Rotary Blade Grinder

With an enclosure system for dust and noise control, the 460 automated rotary blade grinder features two grinding heads, automated infeed cycles, and a built-in blade balancing system.

While grinding is recommended every 8 to 10 hours of use, the 460 minimizes the multiple issues associated with dull rotary blades. It elevates performance and increases cut quality.

Aerator Sulky

The Plugr Step Savr mounts behind a PL850 Pro HD hydrostatic turf aerator to change it from a walk-behind unit to a ride-behind unit. The receiver hitch mounts to the aerator frame in minutes and permits a quick release when not in use.

The compound swivel knuckle allows maximum maneuverability and stability. The unit also features a 31" wheel base, 10" pneumatic tires, and a stable, non-skid platform.

Hydraulic Mounting System

Compact excavator operators no longer need to manually position or align attachment pins during hook-up with the Hydraulic X-Change mounting system. It features hydraulically-activated attachment retention pins that retract to remove the attachment and extend to secure the attachment.

Once attached, the feature maintains optimal “pin-on” bucket geometry so that arm and bucket force are not compromised. A rocker switch on the left console inside the cab activates the mounting system, which is available on three compact excavator models.

Disease-Resistant Rose

The Flower Carpet Scarlet rose displays vibrant red double flowers with high levels of natural disease resistance. Small buds burst into clusters of 6 to 8 flowers, and the foliage is a dark, glossy green. It performs best in full sun, but will bloom steadily with fewer flowers in filtered sunlight.

This rose blooms in waves from early summer through late fall. A mature plant grows from 24" to 32" tall and 40" wide. A single plant can bear as many as 2,000 blossoms in a season. It is hardy in USDA zones 5-11, and can be grown in zone 4 with winter protection.

NSF-Approved Algaecides

Algimycin-PWF algaecide controls planktonic, filamentous, and chara algae, and inhibits rapid reinfestation. There is no waiting period required before using treated water for irrigating turf, ornamental plants, etc. It is National Sanitation Foundation (NSF) approved.

Phycomycin SCP is EPA-registered for use in lakes, drinking water reservoirs, and more, and also has NSF certification for use in potable water. It is especially effective at controlling blue-green algae and can be used to treat heavy blooms.

Flow Meter with Communications Technology

Pre-packaged and ready to install, the V2 System flow meter is designed for easy maintenance without shutting down the pipeline. It arrives wet-flow calibrated and accurately measures flow from 40 to 7,500 gpm.

The addition of the HART Protocol to the transmitter makes the task of integrating flow measurement communications with control systems easy. HART provides reliable two-way communication and is backward compatible with the installed base of instrumentation in use today.
