We like how you showed us how to use this mower. I found your video looking on how to fold the handle . Thank you
This is like the 4th video review I've watched and they're all from the UK. The one constant is that it seems they don't sell edgers there. 😀
We do have edgers, but they are classed as a professional item in the uk so very few people own them, we instead use edging shears and half moon cutters..... very primitive I know!!
ive had this mower for a few years. I was just out cutting my complex and some idiot left a tie strap in the grass and it jammed up. took blade off removed everything jammed up but it not just doesnt start. Im pretty good with electric mowers and pretty sure i know the issue. seems i created hight current and added too much resistance. something blew. wondering if you ever had this issue.
Sounds like a primary fuse has blown though I have never experienced this first hand I have noted in the new batteries they feature a fusible link between the positive final terminal and the main board has a narrow section to act as a fuse if ultra-high current is discharged. Any battery post 2021ish has this feature I believe. Another thing that could have happened is the commutator on the brushed motor could have been fouled - a simple(!?) Strip down and electrical contact cleaner spray could solve it or if the brushes have been singed then they may be sticking in their tracks, another job for isopropyl alcohol or contact cleaner and a gentle swipe with fine abrasive if the brushes are removable to remove any burrs, after that I am a bit out of ideas, apart from looking for SMD's or following where the uncapturable white smoke has come from I am at a loss, poor soldering connections, loose wires, attempt to trace the circuit..... long arduous process after that I fear,
Hi Mike, I bought my 779 around Christmas time when there was a huge discount, "I paid just over £100 with a brace of 4Ah batteries" mine doesn't have the eco knob, any idea why?
The eco mode appears to only be on older mk1 models like mine, if I'm honest turbo mode is a bit of a waste as the intercut kicks straight in to give you turbo mode when needed then reduces back to eco automatically, I only found out about the know not being there on new ones about 2 days ago! :-/
@@mikesptworld Thanks Mike, I must say I am impressed with mine, not having to mess around with an extension lead means the grass will get done more frequently 😀
