NewRider 1700 HPA high pressure airless ride-on field striping machine Newstripe Inc. is proud to announce the introduction of the NewRider 1700 HPA high pressure airless ride-on athletic field striping machine. The NewRider 1700 will save time and money. The 25 gallon paint tank will stripe up to four soccer fields with one filling. Plus, it's American made paint pump can be adjusted from 0-3000 psi. Consequently, the paint is sprayed at exactly the right pressure reducing the amount of paint used. You paint "just the turf" and "not the dirt." The on-board purge tank eliminates any clogging of spray tips and makes clean-up a snap. The NewRider HPA 1700 also features a hydrostatic drive and a 10.5 hp Briggs and Stratton OHC engine with electric start. Newstripe Novo converts any multi-wire controller to two-wire Novo, a compact two-wire converter from Underhill International, is designed to quickly transform any standard multi-wire controller to two-wire operation by using a "plug and play" feature. Controllers such as Hunter, Rain Bird, Irritrol, Toro, and other popular brands, can be converted to total two-wire or hybrid two-wire / multi-wire systems when connected to Novo. The new Underhill converter is a practical solution for irrigation installers who plan to utilize two-wire technology in a new installation or a system expansion because they can still use their favorite controller. Novo installs alongside the host controller and handles up to 32 two-wire stations. The host multi-wire controller continues to run all scheduling programs and "talks" to the new two-wire valves and decoders via the Novo converter. Underhill Bayer Specticle G granule herbicide Environmental Science has launched Bayer Specticle G, a versatile, pre-emergent herbicide that provides green industry professionals up to 6 months of broad-spectrum weed control for use in landscapes, including mulched areas and around ornamentals, and in warm-season turf. Bayer Specticle G protects against a broad spectrum of more than 80 grassy and broadleaf weeds, as well as annual sedges. The product requires up to 40 times less active ingredient than current standards, resulting in significantly less herbicide placed in the environment. In addition, unlike other preemergent herbicides, the applicator-friendly formulation will not stain or leave any odor behind after treatment.
