I've spent the last few months trimming, cutting back and cutting down a good many trees in my yard, to neaten it all up and open up some space, as well as getting rid of some dead trees. Had a huge pile of branches and sticks, about the size of a large bedroom. Hired a huge mulcher, picked it up this morning with the help of a friend with a tow bar.
Worked my backside off this morning, got about 80-90% of it done, then had lunch. After lunch, the damned thing JUST. WOULDN'T. START. Called the hire place 3 times, no help. Took it back this arvo before it closed. They looked at it and tried to start it.
Worked first time.
They said I could take it home, finish the job, bring it back in the morning, no extra cost. So, my friend (who has other commitments tomorrow) has to help me out again. Good thing he's a solid guy and happy to help, but I'm feeling stupid at this point.
Get it home again. Start it up. It works!!!! Second thing I put into it gets jammed, the first jam of the day. Switch it off, unclog it. Can you guess what happens next?
That's right. DOESN'T. $&?@ING. START.
