Sarlo Power Mowers
recently introduced a
30-inch hydrostatic-drive
commercial mower called
Big Mo. Equipped with the
most powerful engine in its
class, Big Mo combines the
convenience and durability
of hydrostatic drive with the
light and compact footprint
of a push mower.
"We've been listening carefully," said Sarlo
President Tony Sarlo, "and Big Mo is exactly the
machine that many landscapers and homeowners
have been asking for."
Designed for applications where a riding mower
doesn't fit and a push mower is too slow, Big Mo
is built for daily commercial use, yet is easy for
homeowners to operate. Now in its 80th year, Sarlo
continues a long tradition of offering products that are
simple and durable and represent an excellent value.

Anyone who has
ever spent time on a
tractor or lawn mower
understands the need
to have quick access
to hand tools. With
Great Day's new
universal-fitting Tractor
Tool Tray (Model TT400), tools are only an arm's length
away. The Tool Tray is ideal for carrying hand tools
such as wrenches, hammers, chains and hitch pins.
It is also large enough for a small cooler or tool box.
The Tool Tray basket measures 24 inches long by 10
inches high by 10 inches deep, and it attaches securely
to the roll bar of a tractor or lawn mower. The frame
of the Tool Tray is constructed of heavy-duty aircraft
aluminum. The unit is finished with super-strong, rust-
proof, powder-coat enamel. It also includes a leveling
mechanism to adjust to roll bars that are not perfectly
vertical. The attachment bar expands from 25 inches
to 45 inches (inside measurements) to fit all category
1 tractors that do not have cab enclosures. Moldable,
Velcro-fastening clips for transporting long-handled tools
such as shovels, Kaiser blades, pole saws, axes and
hoes are available as an additional add-on to the tray for
separate purchase.

B3C Fuel Solutions, LLC, a Conway, S.C.-based manufacturer of environmentally friendly
solutions for ethanol- and bio-fuel related problems, was recently awarded two patents for its Fuel
Life technology, including patents for fuel-preservation technology (Patent no. 9,149,788) and
fuel-drying technology (Patent no. 8,828,104).
The Fuel Life fuel-preservation technology is a proprietary nanopore reactive molecular
sieve that removes (neutralizes) the compounds in fuel that cause fuel decay. Once removed,
fuel's ability to decay is drastically diminished, even when exposed to heat and sunlight. The
Fuel Life fuel-drying technology removes moisture from ethanol-blended fuel in a fuel tank. It
removes bound, emulsified and free water, eliminating corrosion and phase separation (when
water reaches a saturation point, falling out of the fuel to the bottom of the tank where pickup
tubes draw fuel). It is the only scientific process that removes water bound to ethanol. All fuel
containing ethanol (e.g. fuel pump gas with up to 10-percent ethanol) already has water in it
because all ethanol contains up to 1-percent water. Fuel decay and water are top contributors
to contamination and operating issues in engines. Fuel Life is non-toxic, non-hazardous and
non-liquid, and it does not release anything into fuel. The technology is third-party ASTM D525
(oxidation stability) and ASTM E 1064 (water presence) tested and simple to use.
"This new technology stops fuel-related engine problems before they start," said Brian Boezi,
CEO, B3C Fuel Solutions. "Millions of engines — boats, motorcycles, ATVs, outdoor power
equipment and more — do not run, or run poorly, due to bad fuel, both gas and diesel. These
problems are preventable with Fuel Life."
Fuel Life offers an opportunity for original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) to build Fuel Life
into new equipment or sealed gas cans (low-permeation fuel tanks) to stop potential issues with
ethanol-blended fuels (fuel decay, gums, varnish, corrosion), resulting in completely stabilized
and water-free fuel.
"Benefits may include reductions in fuel-related warranty issues and costs, increased
customer satisfaction, and positive environmental impact," added Boezi.
