Reel Lawnmower (petrol)
Moving house soon, need to sell :)
Brigs & Stratton 2HP petrol Engine
Pull Start
Old but fantastic petrol powered reel lawnmower. Has had all services done as needed, very sharp blades. I have recently cleaned the air filter and I believe the oil has recently been changed too, the clutch that runs the blades has recently been replaced as well.
Runs on standard 91 petrol. Is self propelled and comes with a catcher.
Has a brake to stop the mower from rolling away.
Rust looking stuff you see on the petrol tank is just paint that has flaked off over time.
This lawnmower is over 50 years old and runs well, the idle may need a little adjustment as it sometimes cuts out when sitting idle.
Selling this due to the fact that it isn't suitable to mow the lawn we have and is difficult to store.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
