jonsered 2145 brushcutter review

[miker]

Hope this allowed,thought i do a little review on my latest purchase.

 

As title

 

Good points

 

Good balance and weight

good power 45cc,quick acceleration

Decomp button,primer and chunky choke switch

Auto return stop switch

 

Bad bits

 

Harness takes a lot of fiddling to get it comfortable and in right working position

 

 

Tap and go head is pants,needs the S 11 head for serious work.

 

Grass guard is a bit cumbersome.

 

I have put about 12 hours on this brushcutter and find it a very capable machine, and once you have set the harness up properly , it is very comfortable to use and have good control over the machine.

 

Blasts through the tough stuff with no problems but tap head tends to snag the ground if you try to get a neat finish on lower grass, the guard does its job well but i find it a bit to big, just my opinion.

 

Nice quiet machine with plenty of power.

 

Hope this helps if anybody is thinking about buying one

 

Cheers Mike

What's the price? Have you tried it with a tri or saw blade? Thanks.
