stihl kombi system

[arbclimber]

the 130R figured might as well get some guts...

 

Think thats the most powerful one they do isn't it. :thumbup1:

[penfold]

the best thing about the combi is you can split it into two parts (or three if using the extension pole) and stick it in the back of the disco where it's secure rather than sat on the back of a trailer or van where any ne'er-do-well can lift it.

Thats the "daddy" one

 

Mark Bolams got one mate and he loves his, They are QUALITY, im sure he'll be along with his thoughts at some point

cheers stevie.. can't wait...

[Paul Smith]

I plan on getting one soon!, How many extendable pole saws do you know that the locking ring thread has worn so you cant use it at extension? Its a pain!

[tommer9]

They're great till the connector wears...then they are expensive scrap.

[Mark Bolam]

Mozza's right, I have the 130R and love it.

 

I only use the hedgecutter head, but will get a pole pruner head when a job demands it (not often, don't like the 'gypsy stick' much, but for certain jobs it is indispensable).

 

As Penfold says, breaks down and locks securely in any cab.

 

Best of all, with a 1m carbon fibre extension bar, the reach is phenomenal.

 

Gutter height easily reachable from the ground, no more wobbling round on stepladders trying to do the sides.

 

The engine is a 4-mix, which sounds a bit strange and farty, but you get used to it.

 

I'll be very surprised if you don't like it, Ady.

 

Let us know how you get on.

cheers mark,

 

what's this 4 mix lark

[Mark Bolam]

4-mix is Stihls eco-friendly combining advantages of 2 and 4 stroke.

 

Stihl uses 50:1 mix, only difference I can tell is in the engine note.

[Jonesie]

Its a 4 stroke engine running on a 2 stroke mix, same mix as your saws. It will sound a bit weird to start with but loads of power. The reason they done this is to beat the emission laws.

 

It will be with you tomorrow.
