Rotary Mower
Delivery to Cold Lake, Alberta, Canada
Requirement:
Description:
The Department of National Defence, 4 Wing Cold Lake, has a
requirement for the supply, delivery and off-loading of one (1),
new, rotary mower as per the minimum technical specifications
below and the terms and conditions herein.
The rotary mower offered must have a bat wing configuration that
folds up for travel to a maximum width of 14 feet and be capable
of cutting between 26 - 30 feet of cutting width. The rotary
mover must fit through a 15 foot (from point to point) gate.
Due to the need of a walking beam suspension, an eight aircraft
tire configuration is required. Eight tire configurations must
fit through the 15' gates. Aircraft tires are mandatory for the
control of foreign object debris (FOD) from collecting on the
tire tread. Military aircraft have very serious restrictions
with regard to FOD due to the configuration of the air intake.
The rotary mower offered must have walking beam suspension,
which rolls over rough terrain with less bouncing of the mower
deck. Spring suspension is not acceptable because in rough
terrain it doesn't allow a level cut. 4 Wing will not accept
spring suspension as a suitable substitute.
4 Wing has several hundred hectares of grass to cut and a very
limited time allocated by Wing Operations to keep the grass at
an acceptable length. DND employs personnel full time during
the summer months, their only duties are to keep the grass at a
manageable length, therefore, due to time restrictions, a
rotary mower smaller than a 26 foot is unacceptable. Currently
inventory is old and needs replacement. The mower must be
compatable with the prime mover (tractor). The revolutions per
minute (RPM) of the power take off (PTO) must be 1000 not 750.
Tractor PTO is 1000 RPM.
