If, I'm premature in asking as a new member then I understand.But, basically a friend has the above. I've got the engine, a Briggs, running fine. For some reason the cutter deck has stopped engaging. It was engaged but not anymore. I've looked everywhere for a wiring diagram but nothing. Is it powered through relay…

Makita XGT 40v range vs Husqvarna professional cordless range?
HelloI'm currently using a hyundai 5 in 1 petrol multi tool for my business, which although decent when working, there is a big emphasis on the "when".

I've been looking at the Husqvarna 520iht4 as I've heard rave reviews and it has a high cutting speed (4000 spm) but is still equipped to cut reasonably thick stems. However, I've just discovered ghe Makita XGT range, which also…

Can I legally cut a Council Hedge?
A potential customer has just contacted me regarding cutting a Laurel Hedge at the bottom of his garden. During the conversation, he informed me that the hedge was actaully growing on the other side of his fence and was in fact owned by the Council who cut the hedge once every 3 years. I'm happy to cut the hedge that is growing on his side. However, can I cut the top of the hedge as it is not gowing into his garden and technically belongs to the Council?
