For many of you this is the time of year to spend a few hours cleaning up the forgotten areas of larger gardens where tall weeds, nettles and reeds take over.
And this little machine has proved to be a winner as it is both light and easy to use , yet just the ticket to clean up these rougher areas.
As you can see from the picture, the MD Tondu Wheeled Trimmer Mower is very easy to use.
Just fire up the 160cc engine which drives the front nylon strimming cords, and push it along.
It’s that simple. And as it is light and easy to push around you can also use it to cut roadside and drive verges and the sides of banks.
It has a flat nose at the front so you can push it under low-hanging branches and is especially at home in spinneys and small plantations.
The 14-inch wheels with thick tyres make it especially easy to manouevre and with its the thick nylon trimming lines it can cut thick weeds growing close to solid garden walls.
The working width is 56cm and the cutting height is adjustable from 35mm to 70mm. There is a throttle lever so you can adjust the revs according to the weeds you are cutting and another lever to engage the trimming head.
