    Very good video James but for anyone setting up a gardening company please get the right training and tickets for using this machinery and buy the right PPE for the job I see it to often the grass starts growing everyone goes out buys a cheap mower strimmer chain saw etc jumps on Facebook as a gardening company. starts a gardening company and hasn't got a clue how to use the machines and what PPE is. I see too many accidents or accidents waiting to happen where people haven't got a clue or think they can save time by cutting corners. We spend years and hundreds of pounds on training, tickets etc. To keep our staff safe and make sure they go home to there familys at the end of the day. Stay safe people.

      I could not agree more Jacob. So many go out and buy a lawn mower and a wheelbarrow and then call themselves a landscaper. We don’t get involved in offering tickets ourselves, but do offer advice on training companies to use. Insurance is the other thing people always seem to “forget” about!
      I’ve always said that chainsaws should not be allowed to be purchased online or in DIY stores, they should only be able to be purchased from a trained dealer.

    Good advice for sure. Trying to decide between a Pole Hedger or a Multi-Tool at the moment. Swaying towards the Multi-Tool, but not a fan of the weight. I would be tempted with a mid-price range, mid-weight range, but powerful enough Pole Hedger, capable of cutting up to an inch or thereabouts.

    • @MachineryNation
      @MachineryNation  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thank you! I wouldn’t say the weight is noticeable when using it and you have the versatility of adding other attachments with a multi tool. Either will cut branches of an inch no issues.

    Great video! We have similarities in our thinking.
    I'm over 19 years into a small garden maintenance job with a team of three in South West England. I have my 1st ride on mower quote to do ( my choice - did not want to get into huge areas at the start) So I'm looking for any tips or advice on how to quote with a rider on. Have done 1000s of small to large propelled mower machine jobs and wondered if I should just quote that way as in quote whatever it would take with the biggest mowers, but just use the ride on instead?

    Awesome video ! Completely agree on the weibang petrol mower and Husqvarna hedge trimmer however I’d be inclined to sway towards the Husqvarna or echo multi tool ? And same again on the blowers the 525bx and pb2620 are both exceptional machines 😁. The cub cadet zero turns are exceptional machines ! Love the steered front wheel machines though being with all the hills in wales such as the xz3 or the tank sz6. Personally got a 555rxt and a fs490cem and can’t decide which I like more 😂. I’m really liking the look of the eliet vector 4s with hydro drive and feed rollers 😍

    O Machado e a Motosserra
    Eli Silva & Zé Goiano
    Composição: Moacir dos Santos / Zé Goiano
    o machado e a motosserra tiveram uma discussão motosserra diz que é orgulho da evolução machado pra mim já era pois vem do tempo de adão você agora só serve pra fazer calo na mão motosserra dá um ronco relou o dente no tronco já se vê o pau no chão
    a serra chamou o machado pra fazer uma porfia machado aceitou na hora e quando chegou o dia entraram junto no mato pra mostrar a serventia a motosserra roncava machado velho tinia e naquele matagal foi só cavaco de pau pó de serra que subia
    e esse grande duelo deste jeito é que termina na briga das ferramentas o machado é que domina motosserra parou cedo ali no tronco da quina machado seguiu cortando mata grossa e mata fina
    motosserra impotente rebentou sua corrente acabou a gasolina
    que isto sirva de exemplo para toda humanidade e você que é tão jovem tem que saber a verdade respeite bem os mais velhos não brinque com sua idade uma pessoa idosa também tem utilidade é um diamante valioso se não tivesse o idoso não teria mocidade
