Re: (ET) Jacobsen Electric Mower

["Rob Hahn" <rhahn execpc com>]

I just checked the site and they are still advertising the Ransomes model.
I had little to do with this product as the design originated before the
merger.

Bear in mind this is a professional piece of specialized equipment and
priced accordingly. The only thing this machine was designed to was to cut
grass very, very short.

They also sell an electric version of a Trap rake.  This is used to 
maintain
the sand trap.  Another company, Smithco, also sells a similar machine.

For your information, I have included a link to the mower data.
