Mountfield 1328H Ride-On Lawnmower

Mountfield 1328H Ride-On Lawnmower £1599.00
If you’re running a larger walk-behind mower that’s just not covering the ground fast enough, this agile little ride-on from British brand Mountfield is the ideal alternative.Under the driver’s seat is a Mountfield 7250 engine; a four-stroke unit that has a high-capacity 414cc cylinder-displacement; and which benefits from Mountfield’s noise-, emission- and fuel-cost-reducing overhead-valve technology. An electric key starter means achieving ignition couldn’t be easier; while a high-volume four-litre fuel-tank will see you complete the jobs without many tiresome, time-consuming interruptions.Supremely flexible-in-use, the Mountfield 1328H Ride-On Lawnmower offers seven preset heights-of-cut and can either mulch clippings, where they’re returned to the lawn surface to rot down*; or bag them in the extra-roomy 170-litre catcher (a ‘bag full’ buzzer will sound when you’re at capacity, thereby avoiding blockages and mess).It combines a narrow 72cm cut with an infinite-increment hydrostatic-drive and a turning-circle of only 140cm so as to make obstacle- and gateway-negotiation a breeze; and it’s fitted with wide-profile pneumatic-tyres that provide gentle, scuff-free traction on delicate surfaces.Unusually for a ride-on mower, this model has been equipped with a headlight for safe low-light mowing.* Mulch-kit optional

Einhell BG-RS 2540CB Silent Electric Shredder (Special Offer)

Einhell BG-RS 2540CB Silent Electric Shredder (Special Offer) was £379.90 now £179.95
This superior Silent Garden Shredder employs an advanced roller cutting-unit which rapidly chops and shreds garden-waste into smaller compostable pieces. The unique design enables large quantities of material to be self-fed into the wide opening at the top with little or no effort. Unlike with impact-type shredders, where you have to stand at the machine and feed the waste all the way through, the Einhell BG-RS 2540CB Shredder allows you to simply lower the branch or cutting into the top of the shredder and the roller-cutter will automatically draw the waste through. This saves a huge amount of time and hassle. The roller-cutter design on this shredder also has the added advantage of being able to operate at low noise-levels. This not only makes shredding waste a more pleasant experience for the operator, but also enables you to use machine in residential areas where neighbours live in close proximity. Equipped with an extremely powerful 2500w electric motor, the Einhell Silent Electric Shredder can take branches up to 40mm in diameter and will even handle harder types of wood. The shredder also comes supplied with a large removable collection-unit with a generous 60-litre capacity. This saves on clearing up messy piles of waste and enables you to tip shredded waste directly onto the compost-heap. For added safety, a switch automatically cuts the motor if the box is removed. The Einhell Silent Shredder is a German-engineered product that has been designed to offer maximum performance; and which has been built to last. It has a robust undercarriage with wheels and a transport-handle making it easy to manoeuvre around your garden. Other features include a reverse-feed switch, which will enable you to automatically unblock any material that has become jammed.

Loncin’s aim is to lower carbon emissions while using the latest technology to develop a range of highly economical and reliable products. This suitcase-style generator with its minimal footprint is ideal for providing cheap, consistent electricity for leisure use and as a back-up for use at home, providing safe ‘spike’ free power, ideal for sensitive equipment like laptops, games consoles and televisions susceptible to power variations. * The inverter is a lightweight microprocessor that replaces the traditional heavy alternator and thanks to the carefully developed inverter technology, the voltage output is isolated from the engine speed, maintaining a smooth and consistent output of power, with no fluctuations. Power cuts can and do happen and if you work from home, perhaps in a rural area this generator can offer peace of mind – enabling you to pick up and send e-mails and keep working. * Or perhaps you want to use your laptop or watch TV while camping or on a caravanning holiday. This generator is a great, cost effective power source for those times when you are away from the power grid. * It has a fuel capacity of 4.2 litres, and rated output of 1.6kw (120/240V) of continuous power and reduces fuel consumption by up to 25%, making it an economical, as well as a reliable, option. Low in carbon emissions the Loncin 2000i Inverter really is a generator for the modern age, with a powerful 79cc, 148F single-cylinder, 4-stroke OHV engine. It has an eco throttle, varying the engine speed to suit the applied load, helping keep the noise down in low loads In fact, this model is remarkably quiet, at 61 dB (A) compared with many similar specified models. We can vouch for this having seen and heard it in action. It has an easy and reliable and a generous running time of around seven hours on a full tank, enough to do some uninterrupted work on your computer and still have time to watch a DVD. A carrying handle makes it easy to transport and with dimensions of just 49.9cm in length, by 28.5cm width with a height of 45.5cm, it will store comfortably in most caravans, camper vans or even the boot of the car. Low in vibration, it has an eco throttle and a DC output included for battery charging, making it a very versatile unit. NB: It is important to check the wattage requirements of the equipment you intend to power so you can buy the right generator. For your information a general laptop requirement would be under perhaps 50-70 and a modern flat-screen TV (32
