Most users get around 20 hours on a flat blade before sharpening

going off this way of recording hours i'm on 160 hours of use plus what ever the previous owner used which i think was 20 hours as it had original blade on it and that was ready to be turned  

so 180 hours for £700 quid

Due to an issue with my 6" roadtow, we broke out the CS100 for a few days.

Day 2 of this and I'm shattered.

My shoulders are burning from lifting branches high and feeding them into the hopper.

I can't even yawn without bringing on a fresh ache.

Wednesday, I've arranged a day long Bugnot demo as we've another council job with traffic control.

I can't really ruck up to that with a CS100 and whack 7 pines through it in a morning.

Had a very informative chat with Martin at greenmech yesterday.
Made to a high standard in the uk, with dealer back up, cheap spares, and hold its resale value VS Chinese crap.

Cheap spares, hope you haven't seen the price of 2 blades

Lawnflite gts1300 is good little chipper ,had mine about 2 years now with no trouble

The value of something is far greater than the cost! The value is in the package and what it brings in it's life!

I bought my CS100 in UK, took it to France, put 300 verifiable hours on it, sold it for almost what I paid for it 3 years later.

I now have a second CS100 as backup to an unreliable efi engined 150.

Just fitted a fresh battery and pull cord.

Both let me down last week so we had to use starter cables from the truck to the wee chipper...merde alors!
