This trailed seat attachment converts the Fortis Stadium 34 pedestrian mower into a ride-on unit, significantly reducing operator fatigue during extended use. Engineered with a padded seat, integrated armrests, and a vibration reduction system, it provides a stable and comfortable operating position for maintaining large expanses of turf. The attachment features a heavy-duty split steel rear roller to preserve turf quality and a modular coupling system for straightforward fitting and removal.
- Compatibility: Fits all Fortis Stadium 34 models.
- Operator Comfort: Equipped with a padded seat and integrated armrests.
- Vibration Reduction: Built-in system lowers transfer of machine oscillation to the operator.
- Rear Roller Design: Heavy-duty split steel roller ensures smooth turns and consistent striping.
- Mounting System: Easy attach and detach mechanism allows rapid installation and removal.
- Manoeuvrability Options: Configurable with either steering or fixed operation modes.
Modular Attachment System
The unit features a quick-coupling mounting mechanism designed for efficient installation and removal with minimal tools. This modular engineering allows grounds staff to adapt the mower configuration quickly according to changing weather conditions, turf requirements, or operator preferences, minimizing machinery downtime between tasks.
Turf Protection and Striping Consistency
The chassis is fitted with a heavy-duty steel split rear roller that mirrors the roller configuration of the host mower. By utilizing a split design, the roller allows differential movement during turns, preventing the turf scuffing and tearing often caused by solid rollers, while maintaining the clean, professional striped finish required on precision sports turf.
Ergonomic Command Position
To accommodate different operator heights and arm lengths, the seat features mechanical forward and backward adjustability. A rubberised, Fortis-branded footplate provides a high-traction surface for secure foot placement during operation, ensuring the user remains stable when traversing uneven ground or executing turns.
Vibration Isolation Engineering
Operating heavy turf machinery over large areas exposes users to continuous low-frequency vibrations. This attachment incorporates a dedicated vibration reduction system beneath the seating platform to absorb structural oscillations, reducing physical strain on the operator and allowing for longer, more productive working intervals on expansive estates and sports grounds.
Steering Configuration Adaptability
The connection geometry provides operators with the choice between a steering or a fixed linkage configuration. The steering option allows the trailed seat to track precisely behind the mower for tight turns around obstacles, while the fixed mode provides maximum tracking stability when maintaining long, straight passes on open cricket outfields, croquet lawns, or large formal gardens.
