Electric Power, Remote Control: Meet the RAYMO—The Safer, Smarter Way to Mow
27 Jan
At SME Mowers, we know our customers invest in machines that solve problems. For those tough-to-reach, hazardous, and tricky areas, we introduce a game-changer: the RAYMO Electric Remote Control Mower.
Filmed here on the sunny Queensland coast, the RAYMO Torpedo tractor with its Craft Deck shows what happens when safety, technology, and sheer power come together in one low-profile package.
Raymo All Electric Remote Control Mower
Here’s why the RAYMO is proving to be an invaluable investment for contractors and acreage owners alike.
Safety and Accessibility on Your Terms
The biggest immediate benefit of the RAYMO is the remote control. This is more than a convenience; it’s a critical safety feature that changes how you approach dangerous mowing tasks.
Remote Hazard Mitigation: By operating from a distance of up to 100 metres, you can deploy the machine into dense scrub or deep gullies while remaining entirely clear of the "danger zone"—keeping you safe from hidden obstacles and unstable terrain.
Total Workplace Injury Prevention: Raymo transforms high-risk maintenance into a low-risk operation by physically removing the operator from the machine. This eliminates the risk of fatal rollovers on steep 50-degree slopes and prevents chronic injuries caused by whole-body vibration, noise fatigue, and the inhalation of toxic exhaust fumes.
Superior Stability on Banks: Tackle steep embankments and rugged inclines with total confidence. Raymo’s low-profile design allows it to clear areas where a conventional ride-on would be a rollover risk, all while protecting the operator from the slips, trips, and "rolled ankles" common with manual clearing.
Precision Edge Management: Maximise safety at the water’s edge by using the front-mounted deck as a guide. This allows the machine to maintain a clean edge while keeping the main drive tyres and the operator securely on firm ground, eliminating the risk of the machine or driver slipping into the water.
Low-Profile Power and Unique Reach
The RAYMO's low centre of gravity means it hugs the ground. This design choice opens up a whole new world of access that other machines simply can’t match:
Under and Around: The machine can get in and under shrubs with low-lying branches, underneath park benches, along and under fence lines.
Rough Cut Specialist: Fitted with the R48 Craft Deck, the machine is a serious slasher, capable of clearing longer grass, small saplings, new growth lantana, and blackberry. But there are three decks to choose from.
Tough Deck Technology: The swing-back blades are made out of Hardox steel, making them very durable in harsh conditions. Plus, the full floating deck follows the natural contour of the ground for an even result.
The Economic, Electric Advantage
This is a professional machine that runs on electricity, which is a major benefit for your bottom line and your maintenance routine.
Minimal Maintenance: Being an electric machine, it eliminates the costs and labour of fuel, oil, and regular combustion engine servicing. This keeps your running costs very economical.
Continuous Power: The machine is fitted with a 150-amp hour battery. The battery unit is mounted on a trolley that easily wheels out and back in. This means you can carry spares and minimise downtime.
Deck Versatility: The RAYMO is extremely versatile, offering three different deck options: everything from the rough-cut Craft Deck to a fine 42-inch turf deck, and even a post mower attachment for trimming around bollards.
Rapid Turnaround with Super-Fast Chargers: Minimise your downtime with the optional super-fast charging system, which can slash charging times to as little as 2.5 to 3 hours. This allows you to replenish your power supply during a lunch break or between site visits, ensuring the machine is always ready for the next job.
High-Productivity 54" Turf Deck: For large-scale maintenance like sports fields and parklands, the expansive 54-inch (137 cm) turf deck delivers a pristine finish across a wider footprint. This allows you to cover more ground in fewer passes, significantly increasing your hourly turnover without compromising on cut quality.
Smart Fleet Management and Real-Time Insights
Maximise your operational efficiency with RaymoZone, a comprehensive fleet management and telemetry system designed for the modern contractor. Through the RayLink interface, you gain access to detailed job statistics and "Zone Track" data, allowing you to monitor exactly where and how your machines are being utilised. This system provides real-time insights into battery health, power consumption, and area coverage, giving you a digital paper trail of every job completed. By tracking these metrics, you can provide clients with transparent proof of service, accurately calculate your ROI, and schedule preventative maintenance based on actual usage data—ensuring your fleet remains at peak performance with zero guesswork.
