  1. Nothing not to like about the rope guide
  2. There's talk of only trained operatives using top handled saws. But what exactly is the training for this? Been a long time since I trained but I don't remember specific training relating to a top handled saw, just what cuts to make. Anyone undergone training recently specifically relating to top handled use?
  3. You're right that is a lot of money, but you are lying for the ecological froendly aspect of the application and it should be passed on to the customer. Failing that spray on some glyphosate for a few pence not even paint it on neat, that's what I'd do
  4. Actually all it proves is that after being used to a different site for 10 years you simply haven't adjusted to the new site yet
  5. Post a link to a page you don't see pics on please
  6. Stein werewolfs if you don't need toe caps
  7. Leading gardening equipment manufacturer STIHL has made its television debut with a TV campaign that shows just how easy it is to whip your garden into shape with ‘STIHL-magic.’ In celebration of 90 years in business, as well as new innovations like the latest app controlled Viking iMow and the new cordless Lithium-Ion garden tool range, STIHL has partnered with UKTV in its first ever national TV advertising campaign.

The campaign will run for 150 days through Drama TV, Eden, “W” and Yesterday and will be supported by an integrated marketing campaign, including digital advertising, social media, and in-store displays. As UKTV receives a combined 38.1 million viewers per month, this means STIHL is estimated to indicatively hit 11.6 million ABC1 Adults, 17 over, that’s a whopping 550.8 million eyeballs. “Amongst the last 90 years, the most recent have been some of the best for STIHL and we see this as a fantastic opportunity to further our growth,” explains Simon Hewitt, Head of Marketing at STIHL GB. “As STIHL products become easier to use and available at more accessible price points, STIHL has become more relevant to an increasingly wider audience, and it’s for this reason that now is the right time for us to invest in a campaign like this. 2017 is shaping up to be another great year, with cordless technology continuing to be a major focus for us and we are really excited to introduce our products to a whole new type of customer through the campaign.” New for 2017, STIHL’s latest cordless Lithium-Ion range includes of the HSA 45 Hedge Trimmer, FSA 45 Grass Trimmer and BGA 45 Blower, each designed with power and ergonomics in mind.

  9. Still waiting for tapatalk to get their act together on this sorry
  10. Going to have to stop reading this thread till I get to watch the last episode. That new ignore button is going to come in handy
  11. http://www.upcountry4x4.co.uk/nissan_navara-np300/hardtop_rsi-steel-smart-canopy.asp
  12. All done and mounted, not a fan of hard tops but pretty happy with this
  13. THe whole shoe is awesome and they always keep you on your toes. Just when you think you have an idea where the shows heading they go and totally throw a spanner in the works. The sea battle on episode 2 of the new season is a perfect example
  14. Would be great to have something like this put together as an article in future nod
  15. ECHO have introduced a new hedge trimmer, the DHC-200 to their 50V Lithium Ion battery series which also includes trimmers and power blowers. Like all ECHO products this hedge trimmer has built-in features which take into consideration the environment in which it will be working and operator productivity. As a Lithium Ion product, the hedge trimmer offers clean battery power whilst providing performance equal to its petrol counterparts. It’s also built to the same professional standard as ECHO’s petrol hedge trimmers with their reputation for being powerful, tough and durable. “The ecological features of the new DHC-200, as with all the ECHO Lithium Ion series products,” say ECHO “offer contractors and professional landscapers exceptional benefits. The low noise makes them ideally suited to use in noise-sensitive areas such as schools and nursing homes. Low emissions are beneficial in their use in parks, nature reserves and organic gardens.” There are other considerations such as reduced maintenance costs due to fewer moving parts, easy-to-use controls with no recoil start, no more fuel filling or cold starting. The DHC-200 just needs charging up and it’s ready to go. It’s lightweight and very comfortable to use, thanks to the ergonomic design of the front handle which helps manoeuvrability, and it can be used for long periods with little fatigue. Gardeners trimming ornamental hedges can count on the variable speed control for precision cutting and optimized run-time. The 62cm double-sided precision cut blades provide a clean cut with a long-lasting sharpness for a beautiful finish. The DHC-200 uses energy efficient motor controls to manage motor speed, power delivery and battery temperature for improved cutting performance and battery life. The DHC-200 comes with a 2Ah battery and rapid charger as standard, with an optional 4Ah battery for a longer run time. The rapid battery charger ensures the 2Ah battery is boosted to 80% capacity in 24 minutes and the 4Ah in 48 minutes. It’s also a hedge trimmer that is clean to use and store and there’s no need to store and mix two-stroke fuel. The two-year professional use and 5-year domestic warranty shows that ECHO are extremely confident in their machines. This confidence continues in its 50V battery range with a two-year warranty on all 50V lithium ion batteries. Find out more from your local authorised ECHO dealer, or call 0800 597 7777 for more information View full record
