CS Pro in 3m working width elevates reputation of specialist landscape company RA Country Services who serves prestigious estates and sports facilities throughout South East England.

RA Country Services in West Sussex has been servicing high-end client properties in some of the most prestigious estates and sports facilities for over twenty years. Because of the business’ reputation in providing a high-class finish to its work contracts, they are often approached by elite clients looking for the ultimate in grounds-care service.

“We have an extensive customer base which requires maintenance of high-quality sports pitches for football, rugby and cricket,” explained owner Richard Amer.  “Grassland management is a major part of our business and we also carry out a lot of equine paddock management.  

“We pride ourselves in always going the extra mile to achieve total customer satisfaction. We want our customers to walk out through their grounds and sports pitches and always be proud of what we have done for them,” Richard emphasises.

Three years ago, Richard began looking to enhance his machinery. His finishing mower wasn’t leaving the required finish for his contracts. Plus, it was only 1.8m wide and he needed to increase the cutting width and his daily output to meet increasing customer demand. 

His dealer, Farol Ltd, recommended the Major MJ65-300 CS Pro. The Major CS Pro is a fully mounted rotary mower designed for compact tractors tackling dense vegetation and long grass yet capable of delivering a pristine finish in fine turf conditions. 

The ability to cope with rough grassland and fine turf conditions is due to the unique blade system. The gearbox driveline powers four rotors and 16 blades under three pivoting decks.  Durable 5mm boron steel blades overlap and ensure no material is left uncut across the working width.

The finish left behind the Major is a league or more above the previous machine and is better than I have seen from any other mower,” enthused Richard. “It has front and rear rollers, which help firm the grass surface and minimises scalping.  The rotary blades are excellent at mulching the residue and avoids leaving lumps of clippings behind.”

The MJ65-300 comes in a 3.0m working width which can fold up to a 2.0m transport width, which means it can be easily transported by trailer.

“We are running a John Deere 3046R compact tractor, which is almost fifty-horsepower and it comfortably drives the CS Pro,” said Richard. “The mower has folding wings which enables ease of road transport between customer sites, but also has a 3.0m cutting width.  It is much bigger than our previous mower and better on daily performance. This is the perfect combination for us and works well on our clients’ estates and sports fields.”

The mower is built using Strenx™ 700 high-strength steel which is stronger, yet much lighter than steel used in ordinary mowers. Combined with a fully galvanised finish, the Major CS Pro has the durability and integrity to outlast many competitive makes.

The beltless design and simple operating system contribute to low-maintenance qualities. “The Major CS Pro is easy to service and maintain,” added Richard. “With the galvanised finish, we can see this mower lasting us for many years to come.  I would recommend this to all the professional turf contractors and landscapers out there. They just need to try it out for themselves to see what a difference this mower can make in providing a beautiful finish with a high-output performance to all kinds of turf applications and especially fine-turf.”
