BEAT THE PRICE INCREASE !!!! Machines set to be built after September 2017 will fall under the new Mother Regulation enforced by the European Union. This will mean we will start 2018 with all new machines abiding by the new regulation. The new features introduced for type-approval are many and vary widely. The most significant of them are listed below: Mother regulation is a European requirement (EU/167/2013) which impacts on different areas of the tractor as follows: Increased Operator safety Applied to any new model homologated from 1st Jan 2016 Mandatory for all models produced from 1st Jan 2018 (Inventory produced before 1st Jan 2018 will have restrictions for being sold in 2018 – limited volume) All tractors for European supply Those requirements involve some improvement on the tractor, mainly on : Tractor and trailer emergency braking performance Guards Access & handrails Safety decals / labels Warning indicators Control logos Component shape around the operator environment Guard access Hand Brake Emergency brake lever will have a holding position – it becomes a handbrake lever. Parklock stays as standard Brake pedal safety rules Linked pedal sensor to allow the tractor to travel at speeds above 40Kph 2 line braking system One of the requirements is to have at least 2 brake lines. To meet Mother Regulation trailer/implement requirements an ABS socket Access & handrail RHS step integrated into the fuel tank with a folding section for more convenient access. Guard access To open the bonnet, a tool is now required and this is delivered in the toolbox. Action is turn to open. This inevitably means more machinery is going to cost more, with more changes being made across the industry its worth talking to your local dealer now to discuss how these changes may affect your future purchases. At Johnston Farm Equipment we try and safeguard our customers by purchasing stock prior to these increases. We are looking at what special pricing packages we can offer customers to ensure that they are getting the best deal out there. Give us a call now if you’re unsure of how this will affect you. Call us on 043 33 41951 or Kane on 086 6056807
