"I charge at customers on a Stihl fast charger if they have an outside socket but also have multiple batteries as well when I haven't got access to power."

Neil Darby replied to Dan Nate's discussion Charging Stihl tools from the van
"I charge on site if need be, or at home first, depending on how long I am at the job, which are mostly half days. I only spend 15 minutes max dringing to/from home so no way I could charge in the van even if I wanted to go down that route. Most…"

Andrew Betteridge replied to Jason Taylor's discussion Lawn / soil problem
"Around here in Worcestershire it's £4 per tonne plus VAT for bulk product, with delivery charge on top.  Minimum quantity for delivery is 8 tonnes.
So it is not expensive to buy and is lightweight, so easy to handle. One guy I used to work for…"

Distance replied to Jason Taylor's discussion Lawn / soil problem
"While I agree yes that would be ideal, what's that going to cost, anywhere from £1000-£2000? How is that going to get them out of this pickle, I very much doubt the customer would go for that. The rear tine rotavator is the answer, I have done a new…"

Andrew Betteridge replied to Jason Taylor's discussion Lawn / soil problem
"Tiller or rotavator, it still the same mud.
Ten ton of the council soil improver from the household recycling mixed in with it would help, don't call it compost because it's not.
Edit- looking at the photo again, make it at least twenty tons."

Honey Badger replied to Jason Taylor's discussion Lawn / soil problem
"Sorry Peter I have to go the distance. I own a tiller it will cut a foot, its bloody hard work and slow. I bet above is at least six passes. Large areas like that I'd hire a cannon. 3/4 passes it would cut to a foot and leave a fine tilth rather…"

Distance replied to Jason Taylor's discussion Lawn / soil problem
"Not how I describe it, it's what it is, a tiller. And and do me a favour 😆  nobody is criticising your work, I'm criticising the ineffectiveness of that tool. I can see it in the picture you have posted. You have posted asking for any suggestions.…"

Peter sellers replied to Jason Taylor's discussion Lawn / soil problem
"Sorry to be blunt but we have cultivated many acres with what you describe as a tiller over the last 40 years without the need to hire a rear tine rotovator, it's unfair to criticise someone elses work without knowing the circumstances and not what…"

Distance replied to Jason Taylor's discussion Lawn / soil problem
"Sorry to be blunt. But my bugbear is people referring to pathetic tillers as rotavators. "
Wednesday
Distance replied to Jason Taylor's discussion Lawn / soil problem
"Sorry but a Stihl mh585 is a tiller not a rotavator. Something I would use at the allotment not on a professional job. Something like a Barretto 13hp you can hire for £100 a day is a proper rotavator and will go deeper and turn all those clumps to…"

Hi people,Last year I bought several pieces of equipment including a TF 325 tiller. It's been built but never used, infact- I haven't even put oil or petrol in it, nor have I started it. It's been sitting in my shed since September last year. If…
