Trimax Mowing Systems is proud to introduce the Snake S3, the latest version of its globally trusted golf and sports turf mower. The Snake S3 builds on the legacy of the Snake series with a range of features designed to deliver zero daily maintenance and enhance ease of use. These improvements allow turf professionals to focus on delivering exceptional results while simplifying maintenance and operation, making their work more efficient and hassle-free.

A Decade of Trusted Performance - Now Better Than Ever

For over ten years, the Snake has been trusted by leading golf courses and sports facilities worldwide.   

Here’s what Damian Beattie, Head Groundskeeper, Helens Bay Golf Club had to say about his experience:

“We are into our 5th year with the Snake S2 now and it’s a fantastic bit of machinery. We went from a dedicated ride-on mower to the Snake and we haven’t looked back.   It has brought down fuel costs, man hours and maintenance.  We are yet to find an area that the Snake can’t get into or won’t cut.  We are able to use it in the winter months to cut fairways by lowering the height… it has just helped us out massively”.

Known for delivering a fine clip and more cuts per forward meter of travel than any other trailed rotary mower, the Snake provides a finish independently validated by the Sports Turf Institute of New Zealand to rival that of cylinder mowers. At the same time, it maintains the versatility and reliability of Trimax’s trailed rotary design.

The Snake S3 builds on this performance and retains its ability to handle tough or wet conditions efficiently. Its unique deck and blade design optimises airflow through the cutting chamber to cleanly cut and distribute grass, ensuring unmatched grass processing ability in a range of conditions.

Zero Daily Maintenance

The Snake S3 eliminates the need for daily greasing thanks to two key design changes:

• Trimax Titan Roller Bearing System:  Advanced multi-layered seals and a sophisticated ingress channel effectively prevent debris from entering the bearing ensuring smooth operation without regular lubrication. Initially incorporated into the Trimax Pegasus and ProCut mowers first, the Titan system comes with a proven track record of durability and is fully covered under Trimax’s industry-leading three-year warranty.
• Maintenance-free wheel hubs:  Sealed automotive bearings, engineered for durability, further reduce the need for daily maintenance. 

Together, these innovations drastically cut down on maintenance time,  allowing operators to focus on what matters most—delivering exceptional turf quality.

Ease of Use Meets Practical Design

The Snake S3 incorporates several new features designed to enhance ease of use, ensuring  minimal downtime and maximum efficiency.

• Removable blade beams:  Simplify blade changes and offer a more practical solution for potential repairs. If damage occurs to the blade system, only the blade beam needs replacing, rather than the entire spindle, helping to minimise downtime and reduce repair costs.
• Stand-on covers:  Provide safe and convenient access to key areas of the mower.
• Height adjustment collars:  Enable fast and precise changes to cutting height.

“The Snake S3 was developed in direct response to customer feedback,” said Michael Sievwright, CEO at Trimax Mowing Systems. “Their input has helped us create a mower that addresses the real-world challenges faced by our customers, reinforcing our focus on delivering practical, effective solutions.”

Core Features Operators Trust

The Snake S3 retains the features that have made it a favourite in the industry, including advanced articulation for superior contour following and zero-turn manoeuvrability for tight, complex spaces.
