Description

The Castle Eden Dene NNR team has a requirement for a new ISEKI (or similar) compact tractor and a side-arm flail to access the gorge woodland of Castle Eden Dene NNR, to cut back the branches that are overhanging footpaths.
The vehicle will need to be small with a low centre of gravity due to the narrow paths and steep inclines on site. The flail will be operated close into the cab (not on an extended reach). The tractor will also be required to tow trailers and operate a backhoe. The tractor will also work on sensitive grassland sites and must be able to be transported on the back of a 16x7ft trailer.

The required minimum specification for the vehicle is as follows:
• NEW ISEKI TH5370HST TRACTOR (or similar) DIESEL ENGINE AIR CON CAB 2X DA REAR SPOOLS,
• FRONT WEIGHT FRAME & WEIGHTS
• TYRES NEED TO BE SUITABLE FOR USE ON BOTH GRAVEL AND GRASS (minimal damage to grassland sward - possibly 50/50 hybrid tyre)
• NEW SIDE ARM FLAIL C/W MOTION CONTROLS & 1M FLAIL HEAD
