MINNEAPOLIS, Minn. – Polaris Industries' 2016 BRUTUS models introduce new enhancements and attachments that allow you to lift, grab, grade, scoop, sweep, blow, mow and plow; one machine can do the job of several typical work vehicles, with less effort.
“Our customers are telling us what they require from work vehicles,” says Tate Johnson, Polaris director of work vehicles. “We’re listening, and as a result, we are building machines that deliver maximum versatility. We’re adding more and better tools to tackle work tasks, allowing operators to get more done with a single vehicle in less time. In addition to increasing productivity, we’re also keeping operators comfortable with features that make them look forward to jumping in the driver’s seat.”
New product enhancements, attachments and accessories make the BRUTUS 2016 model year the most productive yet. Highlights include:
Ergonomic joystick
A redesigned, ergonomic joystick with an integrated toggle feature allows for control. Raise, lower, tilt and move power take-off (PTO) attachments without taking your hand off the joystick. The new joystick is standard on MY16 and the upgrade kit is compatible with all earlier model BRUTUS HDPTO vehicles.
Updated BRUTUS snow blower – Click here to see it in action.
The updated BRUTUS two-stage snow blower has a hydraulic chute rotator that is controlled from inside the cab. An extreme-duty cogged belt drive with automatic tensioner provides smooth operation and drastically reduces the need for drive maintenance. A cutting width of 62 inches and a height of 21 inches mean big snow is no big deal.
New BRUTUS landplane – Click here to see it in action.
The new landplane makes grading, leveling and aerating soil a breeze. This joystick-controlled attachment breaks up and smooths out terrain, then goes a step further with a back drag to level out the soil. An optional scarifier kit helps break up hard soil, while a screen kit allows the operator to carry and sift material. When you are not using it for grading, the landplane doubles as a sod peeler or aerator, or it can be used to transport materials around the worksite.
