strimmer not cutting/ working right

[Muddy42]

You have had more than enough good advice here.  Ring up your local hire place and ask for a strimmer/brushcutter/clearing saw with an engine more than 45cc in size and with a metal blade, ideally mulching blade, but others will work.  I wouldn't waste your money buying non-branded two stroke machinery, generally they dont last.

Webb Webb WEPHT26 26cc Petrol Split Shaft Long Reach Petrol Hedge Trimmer

 

That is just a direct link to there the manufactures site, not where I saw if for sale on offer. But do you think it would be up to the job? or up to the job ish? or not? I mean compered to my battery powered BOSH?

Thanks

I used to work for a guy that owned a Still hedge cutter it had blades just like the one in the link I provided. But it was not a telescope it was a straight engine with scissor forks in front of it. It seamed to cut horephone and small branches and nettles ok! it looks like the same folks as the link i provided but with out the extension

Genuinely, I wouldn't accept any of the tools you have listed if you gave them to me free. Its all un-branded rubbish that will end us as landfill.  As to the wattage of the strimmers, neither is powerful enough.  You need a 45cc machine which is over 2,000 watts.

I can't find this question anywhere. Try your local facebook jobs page.
