GRILLO AGRI-GARDEN MACHINES |

Grillo walk-behind tractors have been one of BCS’s main competitors for decades, and actually the two companies collaborated from the 1960’s up through the early 1980’s, initially helping each other develop new implements and eventually even selling some of each other’s tractors (the old BCS models 705 and 755 were Grillo-manufactured and the old Grillo 7M had a BCS 725 transmission). BCS's original machines were walk-behind sickle bar mowers ONLY. Grillo started building walk-behind tillage equipment in 1953, and it wasn't until BCS and Grillo started working together in the late 1960's that BCS started to offer tillers (Grillo's design) and Grillo to offer sickle bars (BCS's design). Today, the areas of expertise are still apparent: Grillo has the edge on a better tiller implement, and BCS makes a nicer sickle (cutter) bar mower implement. Grillo’s current model selection offers a good complement to the BCS line we have carried for years, and several implements are even interchangeable between Grillo and BCS using an inexpensive adapter. Grillo’s manufacturing plant is located in Cesena, in Northeastern Italy. Grillo tractors will essentially accept the same selection of implement types as our BCS tractors. The advantages Grillo tractors offer: excellent quality at extremely competitive pricing; more user-service-friendly design for folks who want to maintain their own machine. Disadvantages are: Not a widely-established dealer service network in the U.S.A. (yet... we're working on it!) and since Grillo is newer to the U.S. market, the equipment is not as "Americanized" as the BCS equipment, i.e. multilingual owners manuals, etc. For the peace of mind of our customers, we stock thousands of dollars worth of spare parts for the Grillo line, just like for everything else we offer.

Grillo G85 / 85d: |
A perfect replacement for the discontinued BCS model 730, which left a hole in BCS’s line between the 722 and 732, this model features the added benefits of a larger Honda or diesel Engine, larger wheels and more adjustable tilling width (16”, 18”, 20”, 22”, 25”, 27” vs. BCS: 20”, 26”). Also the tilling depth adjustment on the Grillo tillers is easier and more adjustable than the BCS. New for 2006: now available with a 7.5hp Briggs & Stratton Vanguard engine (manufactured by Mitsubishi) & 4x8x16" wheels as a lower-cost alternative to the BCS 718!
Also new for 2006: G85d (with differential)! Available in the 10hp Kohler and 7hp diesel configurations. We now offer the G85 with lockable wheel differential for effortless maneuvering, like the BCS 732. This model also comes standard with adjustable-track-width wheels. Specifications and Prices
