Please note: the manufacturer may, without warning, change the appearance of the AL-KO FRS 4125 lawnmower product, description, specifications and colors. Because of this, some parameters may differ from those on the site.
Disadvantages: Awfully awkward bobbin mount. To open it, replace the fishing line and close it again, you need titanic efforts. The mechanism for closing the bobbin is idiotic: while simultaneously pressing the spring and turning the bobbin cover sideways, get into the grooves and fix. We saw spools on other trimmers, mounting is nowhere easier. pressed the clamps on both sides. the cover is removed. Foolishness is here. As a result, the only one broke off"tongue \"- clip (plastic), which is not surprising. The entire spool is subject to replacement. Official dealers do not have it for sale. The trimmer is idle, the grass is growing.
Pluses: Powerful and good lawn mowing. Everything is included. The starting line needs to be changed.
Disadvantages: The engine did not run-in, the engine burned out in the run-in. On the first day of work. Alas, the device is not reliable work arose for another day.
Advantages: Well mowed, quite powerful, looks more or less reliable, all fasteners with spring washers. Grovers and well-tightened but without over-tightening.
Minuses: Quickly broke, the rest did not have time to detect
Comment: I bought, assembled, started, warmed up a bit, squinted 10 minutes at medium speed, drowned, rest 10 minutes, mowed another 5 minutes, and died out.
\ r \ nNow I’m waiting for a refund after inspection at the service center.
Advantages: a complete set and price. Powerful enough. The protective cover is quickly redone during the transition from fishing line to disk.
Disadvantages: noisy, compared with the neighboring ECHO.
\ r \ nThe control knob is made of hard plastic, from which all vibration is transmitted to the fingers. The inner side of the thumb and the first phalanx of the index finger are especially affected. After 2-3 hours of operation, the fingers are numb for a week. You can pull the throttle trigger with only one finger (it is very small), from which the finger quickly gets tired.

\ r \ n \"bicycle \" the steering wheel is difficult to adjust to make it comfortable to hold, apparently the tilt angle is not very successful.
\ r \ n For some reason, already inside the spool, the spark begins to deform, breaks appear.
Comment: once during mowing, the fishing line suddenly ended, I thought it was necessary to change. I opened the spool of the fishing line inside, there was a break inside the spool. I noticed that the fishing line in some places seemed to burn to the body of the spool and breaks in. Its ill-conceived construction apparently affects.
Advantages: Price, rich equipment, sufficient engine power, versatility in the country, a wide range of adjustment of the shoulder strap and suspension on the trimmer bar.
Disadvantages: Weight is a little more than I wanted, but at this price it is not significant. Winding fishing line is initially wrong. self-rewind required.
\ r \ nBefore starting work, I unscrewed the candle and examined the cylinder. Hon traces are very clear, so I filled in the cylinder 2 cubes of 2-stroke engine oil and cranked it several times. This is not found in any instruction, but since running-in is strictly necessary for this motor, it will not be worse from such a procedure before the first start. Oil mixed with gasoline strictly according to the instructions 1:25, i.e., per 1 liter of gasoline 40 ml. 2-stroke engine oil.
\ r \ nIt started the second time. Does not smoke (Husqvarna oil) at all. Very quiet at idle and medium. The voice wakes up closer to the maximum, but still does not stun. There is vibration, so I use special anti-vibration gloves. The motor (while new) does not respond well to the gas button. As I wrote, running should be required. Run-in was carried out at a temperature of 30 outdoors: 2 minutes idling and 13-15 minutes at 2/3 of the maximum speed on thin rare grass fishing line, then rest 20-30 minutes. There were 4 such approaches, as the tank fully developed. Then he mixed the mixture of gasoline and oil on the passport again and mowed for about 30 minutes without interruption in the entire working range of the engine, but regularly every 2-3 minutes let him work a little on h.kh. The response to the throttle button has improved significantly, as has the engine’s recoil.
\ r \ nAfter the season of using problems. no!
