First weekend I'm not sick with flu or crippled with a bad bad, it was warm and sunny, so I decided to mow the lawns.
Lawn mower cut out half way through. Still had fuel. The air filter is clogged. Everything else looks good. Added more fuel just in case and tried to clean the filter a bit. It started and I finished the back and half the front, then it stopped again. No fuel for real this time. Fuel can is empty. Give up on mowing grass. Order replacement air filter from eBay.
So I tried to whipper snip the edges, having planned ahead and charged its battery whilst conducting my commendable attempt to cut the grass. Whipper snipper ran for nearly a minute before the cord ran out. Search online, doesn't look like the manufacturer wants to admit ever having made this one. Locate manual online elsewhere and find three different and contradictory part numbers for the spool of line. Going by visual appearance, ordered one from eBay, but they only seem to be available from the UK.
