SUBJECT: TOW BEHIND MOWER
FROM: STEVE FRAZIER, SUPERVISOR OF BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS
DATE: June 8, 2011
Dear Supervisor Colsey and Wappinger Town Board:
On April 25, 2011, the Town Board authorized the purchase and bonding of a "tow behind mower"
at a cost not to exceed $15,000.00 through Resolution 2011-171,. Such was not subject to
permissive referendum.
In accordance with Town Code Chapter 46 (Procurement), specifications were drawn by the Town
Engineer and published in the Poughkeepsie Journal and Southern Dutchess News. Two bids were
opened by the Town Supervisor in my presence on June 3, 2011 which are in conformance with the
bid specifications and the needs of the department.
The Town Accountant has advised, after discussion with the bonding representative, that sufficient
funds exist within the budget to issue a purchase order at this time to initate the purchasing process.
I respectfully recommend awarding the bid to Pine Plains Tractor in a cost not to exceed $12,975.00
which includes delivery and all related costs.

Tri-Deck 15Y2ft.
Rotary Finishing Mowers
12ft~

N()')'
~D EGIIAt.!
Productivity with a Quality Cut
The Progressive Tri-Deck Rotary Finishing Mower is
designed to maintain all large mowing areas. By utilizing
your own tractor, the Tri-Deck can mow from 50-75 acres
in an eight hour day, at speeds up to 6 mph.
Besides saving you time, labor and money, you still have
your tractor available for other jobs after mowing.
Operator friendly, simple and very low maintenance
requirements are all built in features of the Progressive
Tri-Deck Rotary Finishing Mower. With 3 independent
floating decks mounted to a main transport frame, the
Tri-Deck Mower will follow most ground conditions
encountered during the mowing of parks, industrial sites,
school yards, large recreation areas, and golf courses,
without scalping.
Here's one secret for our superior quality cut!
High lift rotary blades create enough vacuum to lift the
grass for a clean even cut and then disperse the
clippings evenly through the rear discharge system,
leaving all cut areas with a finished appearance. Only
minutes are required to change cutting height from 1" to
5" without the use of tools. All functions for transport and
mowing positions are activated without leaving the
tractor seat.
When you require a large acreage mowing machine, that
will give you years of reliable performance with versatility
and durability built in, count on the most economical
machine available today. Insist on the Progressive
Tri-Deck Rotary Finishing Mower.
The heavy duty gear box, with machined and case
hardened gears, transmits power to the mower
decks. All PTO shafts have Ring Lock collars instead
of pins for additional safety. Oil level dip stick and
drain plug allow for easy maintenance.
A single piece 3/16" steel deck is formed and
welded, with bracing at high stress areas to provide
for maximum structural strength. Open back
discharge allows clippings to be dispersed without
bunching up, leaving an after cut appearance
second to none.
SPECIFICATIONS
Spindles are greaseable from top side without
removing belt shields. Spindles can be removed
from deck without disassembly. Blades are attached
to support bar with 2 -1/2" x 1 3/4" bolts. All deck
components are interchangeable.
Narrow transport width allows mower to be moved
easily to distant locations. Six rigid, "In Line" tires
keep mower in place while mowing along hillsides.
Replaceable castor pivot bushings.
The main frame and wings are fabricated from
heavy wall structural tubing with high stress areas
reinforced. All pivot locations are greaseable. A
greasing schedule is attached for easy maintenance.
All PTO shafts run at minimum angle for maximum
life expectancy.
Optional Mulching Kits available for both models.
Specifically designed mulching blades and bolt on
baffles are supplied and attach easily to the decks.
