Hi all

New to this forum,bit of a Greenfield 5xl habit growing, have one, today bought another 5xl, got it as "non-runner", took 10mins to work out needs a good service, fuel flush and tlc(parts).

My other lawn/yard newer equipment: Masport, Echo and McCulloch

5XL is a great little machine for short blokes. One thing I don't like is the way the deck height is adjusted, bit primitive, but apart from that a better machine than the Stallion

I am not short but the little 5xl cuts down my mowing time in suburbia so I have more time for other hobbies,besides both my 5xl's cost about the same money as my Echo trimmer and sometimes primitive can be low maintenance

Hello Deadpan

A warm welcome from me.

The 5XL has not been well recorded.
I note your comments about the height adjuster and the Stallion.

A good place to start every visit is "Active Topics" [from top Menu].

Cheers
