REPLACEMENT OF FORD TRACTOR MOWER
RECOMMENDATION:
Replace the Ford tractor and Gang Reel mower with a Hydro-Power 180. Sell the
Ford 3600 mower at auction.
BACKGROUND:
The City's Ford mower is scheduled for replacement in the 1987-88 Equipment
Replacement Program. The mower currently is out of service and needs $5,000 to
$7,000 worth of repairs. This expense can be saved if we replace it now.
There is a one and a half year old Hydro-Power 180 at Bob Hicks Turf and
Equipment. This has been reconditioned and is now available for $23,000. The
mower would come with a six (6) month warranty.
We would like to waive the normal bidding rules and purchase this mower. There
are two reasons why we should do this. First, the time required to bid will cause
expense. Either $5,000 to $7,000 will need to be spent fixing the Ford, or 16
additional man hours a week will be spent mowing with the smaller mowers.
Secondly, we have found a good piece of used equipment with a warranty. A new
mower will cost around $40,000. We would like to take advantage of the used
equipment and not bid.
Funding for this proposed purchase has been establ i shed through the
Vehicle/Equipment Replacement fund. The one month acceleration for the purchase
of this vehicle will not impact the Replacement fund due to the scheduled routine
replacement period being set in 1987-88. No additional budget appropriation will
be required.

TH.. HEART OF HYDRt ,POWER
POWERED BY PERKINS
The 4-cylinder 78 hp 236 C.I.D. engine is a
proven diesel designed for years of trouble free
service. It has all the advantages of diesel
dependability, excellent lugging power when
the going gets tough, and fuel efficiency to
your energy dollar further.
HYDRAULIC
POWER TAKE OFF
The triplex pump provides the
muscle to drive the Hydro-
Power attachments. It powers
independent hydraulic circuits complete
with individual controls and automatic
overload protection. The independent circuits permit
operation of any combination of one to three PTO's
with no effect on the pressure or gpm of the others.
BY
SUNDSTRAND
The heavy duty hydrostatic transmission
converts engine horsepower directly
in~o traction without clutches or gears.
Response to operator control of speed and direction is
both smooth and positive, providing infinitely variable speed from 0-20 mph .....
PROFESSIONAL FEATURES
Each attachment is EASY TO OPERATE with its own
individual lever to raise, lower and engage power to the
units. The HYDRO-POWER SEAT is designed for total
operator comfort with three inchs of deep foam padding
and adjustable hydraulic shock absorbers.
DASHBOARD INSTRUMENTS are console mounted
for operation convenience and accessibility. HYDRO-
STATIC CONTROL PEDAL enables the operator to vary
his ground speed as desired independent of engine rpm,
and change from forward to reverse with a touch of the
pedal.

SPRING LOADED PANELS are designed for ease of I SAFETY PACKAGE includes ANSI and OSHA approv-
ed ROPS0 seat belt, slow moving vehicle emblem and
maintenance operations. |

YEAR-ROUND OPERATION
The Hydro-Power 180 affords year-round versatility by employing a high capacity two stage snow blower. The
discharge chute rotates 200° from the operators seat enabling the operator to deposit the snow in any desired area.
The steel and glass enclosed Cab commands an unencumbered 360° view. The hot water heater and defroster
insures comfort and visibility to the operator.
