You're welcome. This attachment mirrors what I said in my earlier post.......just so it's not just my opinion. Lawn Mulching: The benefits and what you need to consider - Gammies GAMMIES.CO.UK Ever considered mulching? I'm sure you've heard people say it's great but what exactly are the benefits and considerations of...

I don't sell Grin, but over the years I have sold my fair share of various makes of mulch mowers- walk behinds not tractor or ride on mowers. Biggest mistake buyers make is they think it's a great idea not to have to collect and dispose of cuttings, but don't realise they are only any good on relatively short, regularly cuts grass and then only if it is bone dry. This is why mulching in warmer climes around the world is the norm (look at california/florida etc) where you will rarely see a grass collector fitted. As I have said to many customers, the grass needs to be reasonably short...max around 40mm and dry to mulch effectively...otherwise all you are buying is a very expensive 'juicer' The grass needs to 'percolate' within the cutting deck so it can be cut many many times to effectively form a dust which can simply be laid on the lawn to disappear and even act as a fertiliser when it really is parched. If the grass is long and wet it cannot do this and therefore simply clogs and comes out in clumps. This then encourages moss as well as being messy and not leaving a nicely cut lawn and will seriously affect the quality of any lawn as not removing the cuttings (even if mulched correctly) for extended cutting periods will simply add thatch. In the UK we prefer a more formal lawn for recreational and aesthetic reasons with finer bladed grass. Most of the warmer climes such as America have broader leaf grass and don't use their lawn like we do, so the finished quality of the grass for them is not so much an issue.I have lost count the amount of ill informed reviews I have read about mulch mowers and blaming the mower....rather than how it's being used incorrectly

If it were my vehicle that had been reported nicked, then I would hope the police would be as efficient. Too many people complain police aren't interested in 'proper' crimes such as theft, but as soon as someone complains about hurty words on fakebook or twatter then the full force come down like a ton of bricks. They have to deal with some right scrotes nowadays who don't think twice about abusing verbally and physically police officers, so now they take no chances that someone 'may' be a 'nice bloke' when they a following up a potential crime. At least they did on this occasion.

We already have it...pre dates the yanks thanksgiving. Its called harvest festival.

Well, yes and no. The Kress name is very old, however the original company folded several years ago, although like what Bosch did with the Atco Qualcast and Webb names held on to them and then sold the names on to other companies to use. The Kress name is similar, in so much as the new parent company purchased the name in 2016 to 'bring it back to life' as it were- although it is kress in name only

Battery technology hasnt plateaued yet, which means what you buy now, within a few months it will be obsolete and a new, improved model will be available with more power and run time. This is fine, if you are a pro user as after three years your machinery should be written down and new kit will replace it. A domestic user for occasional use probably wont be bothered if their new purchase is an 'old' model before the seasons out. However with constant near weekly improvement i am seeing a severe slowing of good, used battery machinery.....simply for this very reason. Unlike petrol kit which performs at the top of its game for many many years with a buoyant aftermarket, three year old battery stuff is nothing more than near landfill, it is invariably out of date technology and as a new battery can be 75% of the cost of a new machine people dont want to take the risk of battery failure....this will severely impact the used market

Hmmm.... 1. Calls for the mods to remove my post which is a differing opinion to yours And.... 2. Reverts to chlidish name calling. Reverting to type. Well done

I recall when i was younger and starting out in the workplace, it was called the dole and was considered a financial stop gap to tide you over between jobs, whilst you found another one. Now i know of second or even third generation families who see it as a lifestyle choice....a class now below working class. We still had benefits for those who simple couldnt not work like we do know, but the dole was for work capable people who were actively searching for a job or were between jobs due to redundancy or being fired. Being fired from your previous job also affected how much dole you would receive as well. The welfare state and people living longer are causing this unsustainable tax burden in this country

Think you need to get out more if you havent heard of that phrase. See....this is the issue. Anyone with a less than sympathetic side to the issue of immigration is immediately labelled a 'racist' exactly what you have done. I havent said braverman wasnt right wing, but the msm constantly refer to anyone with an opposing view to the one they wish to peddle as 'extreme' right wing. I thought i had made that clear in my post but obviously no. I am no right wing extremist, but i agree with a lot of what braverman was trying to do. I certainly dont consider setting up the rwanda option as a waste of £120m, when this country has been spending nearly £7m PER DAY on housing and supporting these migrants, of which very few are genuine migrants fleeing from war and persecution, and it is recognised the majority are economic migrants. Its is worth noting that yesterday since the threat of going to rwanda has been announced migrants coming across the channel have dropped by 17% although numbers are up year on year, despite having travelled through various safe countries before arriving here. The other countries that simply pass these people on to the uk to deal with should share a percentage of these costs.....or deal with them like the uk is having to. Maybe the uk politicians should grow a pair, however when they try to like braverman they are silenced and moved on for fear of losing votes, when in reality it would most likely do the opposite.

Theres an irish driver who parked up in essex who will show you the correct way to insulate a container lorry.

Genuine Meteor. Don't you just love sales blurb. Meteor is a copy of Genuine Stihl. Genuine Meteor suggests there are fake Meteor copies out there, but this Meteor is the real deal....whereas in reality even the Meteor is a copy

Absolutely. Lost count of the amount of gardeners that come in with a poorly machine and ask how long it will take for a repair....which for us is normally a fortnight most time of the year. Which is quickly followed by 'jeez....I need it quicker than that, I've got a job on Friday' 'Sorry, best I can do is maybe a week..and that's if we don't need to order parts in. Have you got another machine you can use?' 'No mate......I can't afford two of everything- haven't you got a machine I can borrow?' 'No, we don't lend machines out. What's the job worth to you on Friday then?' 'About 500 quid' 'but for £500 you could have a spare machine, and in future you wouldn't lose a job if your main machine is in for repair' ' I can't afford that' '....but you can afford to lose £500 on just ONE job though?' *silence*

Which one's the pig headed one??

Well, yes that the MSM friendly 'socially acceptable' side of her sacking

Anyone who has a differing opinion to the liberal lefties are either referred to as 'right wing' so the public visualise them as extreme BNP nazi nutters (when in fact, they are just normal members of the public fed up with how we are being taken advantage of to the detriment of our own)...or they are removed from the public spotlight. When the muzzies take over (which won't be long) they will be throwing these lefties that have let them get where they are, off big ben

Well, only you can stop that happening.

Well, no not really. A new stihl crank on its own is in excess of £200, then you have gaskets, seals, bearings etc. What's a 2013 ms261 worth in good working order in fairly decent condition.....£350 I suppose, but probably less so now as most people who are interested in an ms261 know about the early issues you have so don't offer much or steer clear and save their pennies for a later model You won't buy a later good, low hours 261 for what its going to cost you to repair it using the modified later crank, and you should end up with a reliable saw....for yourself to use. But not as a money making exercise though

Over my years i know of several 'friendly' dealers who have been audited periodically (yes, this happens) for warranty claims and pushed through non genuine claims for domestic machines being used professionally who have lost their dealership status. One example I recall, was Hayter. A dealer from london put a claim in for a lnew gearbox on a large mower they sold. It Was registered as domestic use at the address......thus 2 year warranty should apply. The mower was 14 months old. They were concerned as this dealer had put in several large claims (all possibly genuine faults)so they decided to look into this latest claim. When the looked at the address on google maps, they could see it barely had a garden worthy of a flymo let alone a big 22" harrier 56. They then looked at street view, and parked outside was a garden maintenance van. They concluded it was out of any warranty being used professionally, so they rejected the claim and terminated the dealers account.

12 months pro use, 24 months domestic....well, thats Stihl anyway. And the 12 month warranty is only on pro model stihls. Buy a domestic model for pro use and you dont get 12 months warranty. ....but I am digressing now. Thats enough about warranty

Warranty was mentioned by the OP. I pointed out it shouldn't be used as a selling aid as warranty, whether stihl or husky it still isnt transferable. I happened to mentioned stihl in error as i am a stihl dealer, however that point is irrelevant, as the facts are correct, and like i mentioned earlier there are ways to buck (or con) the system. Don't get too worked up about it.

If you have the original purchase receipt with the same name and details on it as it's been registered on the Stihl warranty system, and it's not queried or you happen to forget the original purchasers registered details when asked, then sure there's always a way to buck the system. But my point is still correct and valid
