First time spending abit of money always went for the cheap Bunnings option but this opened my eyes and will definitely encourage me to buy a brand that specialises in good equipment!
1st use; started second pull but kept stalling using the throttle. 2nd use; started first pull but kept stalling when using the throttle. Had to be very gentle with the throttle until warm then runs perfectly. I suspect mixture screws need adjustment. I'll have to bring it in so you can check it.
