Einhell BG-SA 1231 Electric Scarifier / Aerator

Einhell BG-SA 1231 Electric Scarifier / Aerator was £149.95 now £99.95
The Einhell BG-SA 1231 combines an aerator and a scarifier in single handy package. When it’s used as an aerator, its eight aeration-knives cut tiny slits in the turf, allowing for better drainage and improved nutrient up-take. As a scarifier, its 42 specially-designed claws will delicately but thoroughly get rid of any thatch or moss that have built-up on the surface-pan, ensuring moisture, sunlight and air will be able to better penetrate. When undertaken regularly, these processes will leave you with a lush, verdant lawn. Driven by a high-powered 1200w electric motor, the Einhell BG-SA 1231 Electric Scarifier / Aerator will prove a stress-free alternative to a petrol machine. Its lightweight, four-wheeled design combines to ensure that even larger jobs won’t tire you out; while its capacious 28-litre thatch-collector allows for long-run times between emptying-breaks. Thanks to its flexible three-step working-depth (adjustable between 3 and 9mm), the Einhell BG-SA 1231 can be easily set-up to perform effectively in any given conditions. This 31cm model also features a collapsible handlebar, so it will take-up very little space in your shed or garage.

Mountfield 1538H-SD Lawn & Garden Tractor (Special Offer)

Mountfield 1538H-SD Lawn & Garden Tractor (Special Offer) £1599.00
The Mountfield 1538H-SD Lawn & Garden Tractor combines a very large 98cm cutting-width with a hugely powerful 452cc Mountfield single-cylinder engine, so it will prove a great choice if you’re looking-after a very large lawn (up to 8000m2). Its side-discharge function is ideal for areas that are less regularly maintained; while its mulching capability comes into its own on regularly trimmed formal lawns (grass-clippings are finely shredded so they quickly rot and disappear). Large lawn-tractors can often be difficult to control and manoeuvre. Mountfield have got around this problem by incorporating a variable-speed hydrostatic-drive, which allows you to adjust the ground-speed in infinite increments while on the move. This not only makes it easy to mow around and between garden obstacles, but also enables you to select the most effective ground-speed for the conditions and grass-type you’re working with. Other high-specification features include Mountfield’s ContraFlo cutting-system, which optimises under-deck air-flow for excellent mulching performance; and a seven-stage height-of-cut (25 – 80mm), so you can set the blade-position to create your desired finish. A tow-bar is supplied as standard.

Mountfield MC438 Two-Stroke Petrol Chainsaw (35cm Guide Bar) (Showroom Model)

Mountfield MC438 Two-Stroke Petrol Chainsaw (35cm Guide Bar) (Showroom Model) was £129.00 now £109.00
If you want to create a handy store of small logs for a wood-burning stove, carry out some pruning or light limbing, make fuel for a small range cooker or for the fire, this small but high quality domestic chainsaw from Mountfield is just the job. The Mountfield MC438 Two-Stroke Petrol Chainsaw is an affordable but quality domestic level chainsaw powered by a 2-stroke 1.2kW petrol engine, with a number of high quality features including a pump primer for quick and easy starts. Having your chain at the right tension is essential (it should be tight against the guide bar) so Mountfield have included a side chain tensioning mechanism to allow you to adjust the chin keeping it safe and effective. Don’t forget, your chain tension should always be checked before every use. A sprocket nose is featured on this machine, which turns at the end of the chain and increases cutting performance. The chain bar is a handy 35cm, so ideal for creating smaller logs and firewood as well as pruning smaller branches and to increase the working life of the chain and improve efficiency, the chain has automatic chain lubrication with an adjustable option as well, a dual-feature you will rarely find in this price bracket. A double acting chain brake keeps operator safe as well as reducing potential damage to the machine. Double-acting means the chainbrake can be operated by inertia or by moving the chain brake lever with your wrist or hand. The inertia element means that if you were operating the saw with a hand on each handle a ‘kickback’ occurred, the movement of the saw would engage the chainbreak. The MC438 comes with a one-year manufacturer’s guarantee.
