it's still their return Tesla out cruise control so I just stay and talk to you guys while it's
in cruise control heading towards the Hedge I know tested by Machinery Nation we have
left the boundaries of Devon and have come to buckinghamshire to check out the new range of
products coming to 2023 from EGO power plus we have the new steering wheel zero turn the
52-inch zero turn the misting fan the twin battery Backpack Blower the new telescopic pole saw the 10
000 Lumen floodlight a new multi-tool powerhead and attachment and the strimmer with line IQ so
first of all we have the Backpack Blower which can take now two batteries at once oh yes it can
so the new very trendy Backpack Blower with dual batteries from ego is very sophisticated it's very
well balanced it feels really nice on the back to be fair I've got two 10 hour batteries on my back
but it doesn't feel like it feels really comfy it feels like I'd still run a marathon well not quite
it's got really nice heads up display here to tell you exactly what's going on so obviously your
battery's in the back so you can't see them you can't see how much charge you've got left in but
you can now see it on the heads-up display right here in front of your hand so you've got turbo
you've got variable speed trigger so to fire that up you can do that nice and slowly and further you
pull it in Faster it goes and then you've got turbo on top of that so you might not be able
to hear me if I do it with that so here we go so up through a turbo on there and then you can even
lock it in so holding that through has got a lock there lock it in no hands no hands and then turbo
noisy because it's got some power let's watch the grass
how much power 800 CFM yes 800 CFM tell me another blower that can do that so adjustable features
included allow you to adjust the nozzle so you can make that longer or shorter up through there
you can go halfway if you want there we go all right up there at the weight the handle is
removable so you may get more comfortable with the length of your arm up and down and obviously it's
all pivots as well it oscillates around this cable can clip in down around there out of the way yeah
nice so it is Twin battery you can still run it on one battery whether it be a 2.5 or 5 a 7.5 a 10
or 12 whatever you want to put in it you can put them in and different quantities or different size
batteries absolutely fine so another strimmer from ego got who knew I don't think your year has gone
past but they haven't released a new Strummer but this one is very different all fairly similar up
here new designs and all that new little display for fast and slow but the important bit is down
this end oh yes it is because this not only loads the Strummer like it has done with the power load
before but it also releases the cord as you're streaming to keep the right length on the cord I
know right let's give it a go she may be familiar with this already if not where have you been
because on EGO power load heads you can feed the cord in just through there like
so once you've got it even each side you've got a button under here you press that button
and it sucks your cording and loads your head for you without all that fingery family
horrible bit of getting everything and then it throws your cord in Pull It in like that they
are your cord is loaded but this one now as your cord gets shorter as you're using it or breaks
off the head itself will feed the cord out to the right length and cut it here exactly at the
size you need it so as you can see here the line is sticking out about 50 mil each side I should
now be able to run it up and under its own power it should release the cord to the right length
it's now looking at the cord there we are you can see it's letter out to the full length that
needs to be out to that cutting knife out there like spin that round exactly the right length
right so this is the new multi-tool yes it's a new power head and a new attachment why have
they done that well let me show you it's obviously got a nice little new design that just makes sense
also they've updated everything inside of this power head so it's much better more efficient the
batteries last longer but it's also got two little terminals in here so all your current multi-tool
attachments that you already may have or you may be looking to buy will fit this but it's got two
terminals in it positive and negative because on this one it's also got two terminals on it why is
that because it's got a shaft in there it makes it go around but also it's now producing power down
to the power load head so yeah this one hasn't got line IQ but it does have the power load which
we're very familiar with and absolutely love it very good Feature A lot of people have asked for
that so I think this is a great addition to the ego range if you want to see the full videos on
these products for when they properly come out make sure you subscribe to our channel so you
don't miss them so this is a misting fan it's been in the states for about 12 months but it's now
arriving on the UK Shores very soon so missing fan and up to seven thousand meters cubed of air per
hour that sounds quite a lot but it also missed so you can actually put a water bottle in the
back of this so you can put water through it so also Mist as well keeps you really nice and cool
today we've got a bit of mist in the air anyway so we don't really need it but on a hot day that is
going to be absolutely amazing normal battery goes in the side here all your ego batteries
you've got lots of different settings on the side so here we go let's put
it towards an image there we go there we are put the power up power up there we go
I know I've got long enough hair to make this effective but nice for the kit very good addition
to the ego range and then the product that has been available with our American fans is the
light yes it is 10 000 Lumen floodlight and to be quite honestly if you're looking into brighten up
your day that is gonna do it because look at it you can manipulate it wherever you want it
to go and point it in the right direction I haven't even got them all on yet hang on
this must be another mode here somewhere hang on there we go oh hang on there we go that's
the mole and oh hang on that's Briar there we are that'll brighten up your day foreign
you might recognize this machine because we featured it previously in another video where
we've done a full review in our demo Garden of this machine but this one's a little bit
different than the previous one we've done because this has a 52 inch steel fabricated
deck yes so it's got three motors on the decks you've got a bigger front Caster wheels on the
front bigger back wheels on the back with a little bit more knobbly tie as they look it
just feels a lot more a bit more rigid so we've updated the chassis up through the bottom but
from sort of here upwards handles deck height control seat this attachment all your controls
over here your batteries at the back are exactly the same as the original Z6 they've just made it
bigger and beefier right let's fire up this 52 inch deck and see how different it is and cut
some sort of four or five inch grass up through there level cut it down to about three uh two
and a half inches two and a half inches right let's cut it up through there boom here they go
we've got power foreign
foreign
you'll definitely be able to cover some area with 52 inches on this machine you know how
I'm impressed if you've seen the previous video I am with the normal Z6 this is just as impressive
but it's bigger so this is the ps1000 yes the new pole saw from ego last year they released
the PPC X which is a telescopic pole saw and hedge trimmer this is the more lightweight version and
I'm very excited about it so this machine comes in three sections you've got the pole saw you've
got the extension and you've got the unit but the unit is also telescopic because you've got
this little lever here which folds out and then that comes out as well so that is just excellent
because there's like two machines in one it's like a multi-tool in sections but you've also
got the telescopic feature so the tool doesn't actually have a shaft running up along the inside
what it's got is a cable going up through and then connectors where they join in first of all
you can put in the extension shaft into here which it slips in very easily like so do that on up and
then you can put in the pole saw attachment so as you'll see we've got five terminals on the inside
of here rather than a sharp and they go in exactly the same way as a normal attachment would goes in
Clicks in and then you can do it up you can either use this with the extension or without or if you
want to go really long with the extension have it out there and go all the way out that is all I'll
say that is a long way up but I'll be honest you can't do this with the ppcx that's one-handed I'm
holding that up there carbon fiber shafts all the way up through extremely easy right fold that down
there take them apart because they take come apart really easily as well out that take that one out
and pop that one in and they have a nice little handy pole saw just for your short little jobs
right the chain speed is 24 meters a second yep and it's running a quarter inch chain nice
fine thin chain in there and it's also got tallest chain tensioning shouldn't even got to worry about
your tools now for when you're out on the job all right let's run it up see what it sounds like
you also see this green LED light on the top what that's for is if you're on a tree canopy
and it's getting dark and you can't see where you are that green light will show you exactly
where the end of your saw is which is going to be very very useful in those dark conditions
right so dressed up in the coolest PPE I could find in Buck him [ __ ] yeah they've
got a little bit of a different taste up here to what we have but we're going to cut some
branches while we're here oh yes I'm going to extend out this beautiful new tool as easy as
that and then I should be all ready to rock and roll cut a couple little branches off
and we'll try a bigger one oh I can't reach so I'm
gonna need an extension I should have measured that before we started oh well
right extension in place take another one
I've seen the green light up there
I'm gonna say that is so much lighter than the other one it's just so powerful it
whizzes through it 24 meters per second on that chain speed very impressive right the
mower you have been waiting to find out about yes this is the new zero turn ego Z6 but with
a steering wheel what I know right so does it do the same thing let's let's steer it foreign
I think I can confirm that
right I'm making a mess of a field because it's not designed to do that and I'm dizzy
so the original Z6 the control panels down here on the right hand side where you can
control your blade speed your travel speed your different modes you wanted to be in it showed you
battery level and all that well it's not there anymore I've got my special cup holder and we
know how much I love a cup holder right there nice drinky Dews but no the control panel now
is right in front of you on this amazing looking steering wheel oh yes right let's take a look so
here is your full control panel in the middle of your steering wheel how cool it's like it's like
being in the F1 everything is all the ear and the design of it is just Wicked so you've got
all your display you've got your travel speeds up the left you've got your blade speeds up the
right you've got your control settings in the bottom what batteries you've got in down here
your percentage battery there and everything is where you want it any hours zero zero zero zero
yes I'm the first person to use this mower how lucky am I but you've got that nice steering
wheel look at it it goes all the way around there and all the way around there it's just really cool
and then to reverse you've got these two on the right hand side but it's also what you use to
engage to drive it pull them both back green light in the middle you're ready to go and you've got
your foot pedal down there for your speed control like you do on a normal mower with a hydrostatic
you just got a speed control the more you push that one in the faster you go to reverse you
then pull back either one or both of these Flappy paddles pressure paddle and you go backwards it's
as simple as that so when I first saw a picture of this mower the biggest question we asked was
was it mechanical steering yeah did the steering wheel control the front wheels or was it all still
controlled on the back well the answer is it is still all controlled on the back wheels so the
front wheels are still caster wheels they've just taken sort of the potentiometer guidy things out
of the handlebars and it's all up here now so it works like a PlayStation you can controller
pretty much same sort of Technology when you twist that way it controls it and pushes it that way
putting more power to one wheel than the other fairly simple but I like it it's nice and easy
and to be fair not Everyone likes stick steers not Everyone likes the those that's the way of
steering they didn't feel safe they didn't feel secure they've got nothing to hold on to but this
everything is there you've got full control on your throttle so you've got braking King you can
use it to break as a downhill brake instead of using your levers to pull back it's more shall
I say in line with the consumer that is going to be buying this machine perfect perfect addition
to the ego range and the ego Ranger Z6 mothers this is going to be a top seller it really is
so from the bottom down this mower is exactly the same as the old one with
the sticks it's only either controlled on your steering and in front of you that is different
foreign
pedal on forwards and hold them on your reverses oh and you can go back I know
there we go let your foot off off that one let's go forwards again that easy I know
but also you've got cruise control so if I want to go at that speed there quite like our speed
put cruise control on and as long as I'm still sat on the seat I can stay and talk to you guys while
the mower's going along like it could be mowing like this but to be fair I do advise looking in
the right direction so I stop we'll just see where I go oh yeah it's still going in that
so I'm turning and the cruise control slows you down a little bit that's sensible okay falls again
that's right and then speed up a little bit cruise control speeds up cruise control flat out now that
flat out cruise control so I can just stay and talk to you guys while it's in cruise control
heading towards the Hedge I know okay I wasn't brave enough to keep going and then it slows down
turning around that's the proof you know ah I'm in cruise control there we go complete cruise control
yeah I like it it's good as I said still exactly the same mower at the bottom as the 42 inch Z6
you know sold batteries in the back up to six you can put in there it's still got the same
Wheels it's still got the same size it's got the same well it's actually got a different
USB toolbox toolbox Sandwich Box whatever you want to put in there that side cup holders this
side still got a mobile phone holder everything is expected but it's just got this amazing just
sport steering wheel yeah for the UK Market they prefer steering wheels and sticks so
yeah it's going to be a good seller check it out go and find your nearest ego dealer just
go and see one in their showroom when they're available not sure what that is but find out
please like share and subscribe we'll see you in the next one
