Default Re: Mowing ..

GEDC0060 by Rodney McGiveron, on Flickr ...The old 1994 stuff or some of it .. The Rover with the Suzuki engine starts within 3-4 pulls from cold . Nylon bush wheels but still fairly good and no rust in the deck .. A favourite mower ..Poulan saw still runs .. Face guard is a standard MSA . Ear protectors are railway issue . Still have the Echo line trimmer in bits ..She carked it a while back but in the next picture there is a battery powered Rockwell 18V single line trimmer I bought a few weeks ago ..Alright for around small areas but no Jonsy or Husky though ..Might buy a better one eventually though .

That and the more recent stuff including the new Makita and Husky .. The mesh face guard is better than the perspex ones and other ear protector is Peltor . Do have a safety hat but that's still at work where I left it the other day..

GEDC0059 by Rodney McGiveron, on Flickr and

another pride n' joy...She won't cut the grass but she sure cuts down distance pretty quick ..

GEDC0053 by Rodney McGiveron, on Flickr ....

Missing push mowers in the fleet is the two four stroke mowers ..Both are Briggs and Stratton powered ..The rear schute older one isn't much chop but the side throw is really good now I've modified the ridiculously small opening ..fixed that issue ..And I do have a el cheapo Farm Boss chainsaw that actually isn't terrible for mucking around with for branch trimming . Certainly no Stihl or Husky though...AND of course the Husqvarna Ride on (LTH 19530) and a Cox Stockman no longer running . The Husky ride on needs a new battery as I have to top up the charge to start . Will get one soon .
