  I don't have his maintenance manual but what a seller and then there were 3 bolts missing that lock the crankcase to the engine block, thank goodness I checked before turning it on I would have risked getting hurt a lot and breaking the engine and transmission and a seller who doesn't check if c and all the components

  First day very good. As much as it costs... with 140 euros it is ideal for small gardens or for trimming around trees, but it seems that it is not suitable for long continuous operation. It is powerful but I don't think its blades will withstand a lot.

  +Very powerful (sprints only for higher speed on the blades)
  +Lightweight (can be carried with one hand)
  +Very user-friendly system with wheels (in the photo, it is mounted upside down, top-bottom)
  +Very easy disassembly (the engine, blades, and legs can be removed with 4 screws)
  +Moderate fuel consumption
  +Not much compression during startup
  -The position of the handlebar cannot be adjusted at all
  -Does not start easily the first time because the auxiliary gas bubble takes in air (you have to release it very slowly when using it to avoid bubbles), but then it always starts on the first pull!
  -Inadequate air filter (peripheral sponge)
  -The transmission system heats up easily and a lot, which has two screws - caps for grease-oil filling and draining (only comes with grease inside).
  -The rubber grommets on the blade axle wear out quickly because they are not protected (external patent is needed)

  The throttle is on the handle
  It has a centrifugal clutch system (in reality, it is a machine from a grass cutter!)
  In general, it is not suitable for prolonged use because the transmission system overheats excessively, while the small bearings inside are closed type, so they are not lubricated by the plain grease of the "gearbox" and wear out quickly. I made them open type and added oil to the grease...

  I have had it for 4 months. Observations:
  • Quite powerful, it has strength and is suitable for small areas. Personally, I use it to dig in trees and aerate the soil.
  • It is lightweight. It has folding wheels and handles, making it easy to transport.
  • It is two-stroke and consumes a lot of fuel. Gas-oil ratio always 50:1.
  • The blades on the right and left have a small play. I fixed this by placing a galvanized washer and now they are stable.
  • With frequent air filter cleaning, use of good quality oil for mixing, and general cleaning, the long-term good operation is achieved.

  UPDATE 16/6/2020
  The machine works like new after two years. As I mentioned earlier, I mainly use it to dig around trees and also inside the greenhouse. I have changed the spark plug once, and I grease the transmission system more frequently and clean the air filter. Also, during periods (winter months) when the machine is not used, the fuel mixture must be completely emptied from the tank, and especially from the carburetor (by pressing the fuel pump bulb until air is drawn).

  Update 26/9/2021
  It works flawlessly, just like the first day. Absolutely no problem.

  UPDATE 02/04/2024
  The machine gave up a month ago. Specifically, it stopped working after winter inactivity, when a metallic noise was heard from the engine. In trying to restart it, the pull cord would not turn at all.

  As expected, I disassembled the ENTIRE machine, and my fears were confirmed. Broken spring (one of the two), broken piece from the piston, and scratched cylinder. The only thing I can blame is the build quality. And I say this from the moment I held the piston in my hands and compared it to other similar ones I have held in the past.

  Judging my abilities and knowledge, (without being a mechanic) I searched and found these spare parts as well as the corresponding flanges. I also proceeded to change the air filter, spark plug, general carburetor cleaning, fuel tank, etc. In short, the machine underwent a complete restoration/cleaning.

  The result now is that the machine has been working better than new for the past 10 days, leaving me speechless. I should note that the pull cord tightened somewhat compared to before, but this is because the springs are new, creating high compression within the cylinder. I will not mention technical assembly details, etc.

  What I did not mention before is that my spare parts cost me about 35€ including the cylinder-piston, all flanges, and the spark plug.
