Haven't used it properly yet just used it with a few branches from the weekend before. I stuck in a 3inch horse chestnut trunk and it destroyed it wasn't expecting it to be honast. 2016 model 3 months warranty left from Bertram mowers in Ipswich. Tried starting it and I thought it was broke only to realise an hour later the stop butting was stuck in don't know how it got stuck in though as I hadn't yet used the big red button. Looking forward to using it next saturday. Very hard work pushing onto van by myself but will get easier

No it wont - especially at the end of the day :thumbdown:

 

I ended up putting mine on a roller trailer and just towed it behind my van from job to job.

It is hard work I have to ask people to give me a hand every now and again as I push it up to wedge something behind the wheels to stop it rolling so I can then get inside the van and pull it inside. Trailer will probably be purchased next year just don't want to many eyes seeing a 4000 piece of machinery which some people would risk a lot to pinch.

Really well I'm glad I'm not the only one who it's caught out then eventually put it inside the van as I was so fed up with trying to start it haha. Then again on the manual it does say to check before starting which I should have done.

Minimum 8ft ramps to make life easier dragging it up into a panel van.

I used my m200 for the first time on Saturday I managed 3 jobs with it I chipped and removed on 2 and left chip spread out on the flower bed on an other .

I'm finding out after just a day how you need to treat the job differently .

It's proving to be very rewarding and fun experience 😎👍ImageUploadedByArbtalk1481488819.349147.jpg.517a439428996106d952828e58c32841.jpg
