Product Overview
The UBS Hydro 9 Kersten Two Wheel Tractor is an incredibly versatile, machine with mechanical PTO and much more power. Ideal for lengthy, heavier tasks in grass cutting, weed removal, path edging and artificial surfaces. For Contractors and Councils in parks and city center.
The machine features hydraulic drive to the wheels, with steering using wheel motors and unlike the K-Series it has a direct mechanical drive to the attachments. This delivers power to implements as efficiently as possible. This mechanical drive is necessary for power hungry tasks such as path edging, flail mowing and snow throwing. In the UBS series the chassis is also enhanced to give extra support for coping with the additional strain these jobs put on the machine.
The Kersten Quick-Attach70 system allows the wide range of implements to be changed in seconds. An adjustable stand allows you to do this with only one operator

Applications
Moss & Weed Control
When Moss and Weeds become established on hard surfaces, such as block paving; tarmac; or concrete - they are difficult to remove with a sweeper. For this application we have made the Weedbrush. Kersten weedbrushes have been designed to quickly remove weeds and moss.
Artificial Surface Maintenance
In addition to the normal problems we face maintaining hard surfaces; artificial surfaces have infill, which gets compacted and also migrates around the surface. This infill can be de-compacted with a sweeper allowing the surface to drain properly. The sweeper will also even out the distribution of infill and stand up the grass, making the surface much nicer to use.
Winter Maintenance
Keeping pavements and highstreets open is also a challenge, often undertaken by council teams. A Kersten Plough or Spreader can allow facilities, key bus stops and other transport networks to remain accessible to pedestrians.
