PRINOTH presents: the new Bison
New champions for pistes and funparks

Bison / Bison X
Unique Cabin Comfort

The high-quality design of the operator’s cabin is impressive, not only because of the Pininfarina design. The cabin provides the operator with a low level of noise and vibration. It also provides a perfect all-round view due to the operators seat being positioned in the center of the cab and the generous windowed areas. The Recaro® driver’s seat was specially developed to provide the operator with ergonomic comfort and guarantees optimum support even in the most extreme driving conditions. The operating devices are arranged on the driver’s work place from an ergonomic point of view. The cabin also offers plenty of storage possibility. The driving lights both front and rear ensure a first-class operating experience.

Innovative Technology
The new joystick designed and developed by PRINOTH, lets the operator have total control of the blade and tiller with maximum precision and a minimum expenditure of energy. The onboard micro processor display screen provides user-friendly diagnostics for the operator and service technician. Furthermore, the efficient electronics make it possible to easily adjust the driving properties to the driver.

Unique Performance
The optimum combination of engine performance and weight ratio results in the both excellent climbing and downhill steering control in the most challenging snow conditions. Ease of operation comes from its ideal dimensions as well as the powerful Caterpillar engine. In addition, balanced ground pressure resulting from optimum weight distribution, makes the groomer safe and ready-to-use in any situation and any place.

Efficient Accessories
The powerful PRINOTH Power Tiller provides incomparable piste quality for the Bison as well. The new design of the Power Tiller reduces the accumulation of snow and guarantees a good rear view. The 12-way blade proves its value when moving large volumes of snow. Made of highly resistant steel, it supports tremendous pushing forces thanks to its optimum shape.

Optimized Operating Costs
Regarding its maintenance, the Bison remains quite modest in spite of all of its benefits. For one thing, it can come up with high drive efficiency with very economical fuel consumption. It also scores points by having very low maintenance costs. The use of tried and proven components guarantees long service intervals and that way lowers the maintenance costs and that translates into reduced operating costs

Bison X
Funpark Expert

The Bison X is the funpark expert. The basis of this is its extreme manoeuvrability and ability to climb. That way, it can brilliantly master the construction of complex jumps and curves. The special hydraulics system of the Bison X is a multifunctional system.
The push frame and rear lift frame hydraulics of the Bison X are controlled at the joystick and can be operated in unison. This combination of functions answers the demands of the worlds best fun park designers. Multi functions of both front and rear implements create the opportunity for greater efficiencies and best results in funparks.
The blade and push frame are designed to create the most radical features in the most extreme conditions. The blade and push frame have a working spectrum of up to 73 degrees. This enables the operator to create the steepest landings and takeoffs. The cutting angle of the blade can be adjusted to operate to a range of 127 degrees.

The Bison X rear lift can be raised in height to put the finishing touches on the most radical terrain (mobility of 151 degrees).

When the operator needs to steer the rear lift frame from one side to the other he has the benefit of a parallelogram design that allows to easily shift the implement in either direction for perfect piste grooming in the world's most challenging fun parks.
If a funpark has already been built and only has to be maintained, then the Bison can also be used on the piste without any drawbacks at all. Visibility is everything when building funpark features and therefore the Bison has unrivalled visibility so that the operator can see exactly what kind of product he is creating.

World class terrain parks just don’t happen. They are a result of using Bison X technology
