Good video mate! I've got a Prostripe and have been using it for a few weeks now- definitely the best machine I've had! Bit heavier but it's got a larger engine... and because it's heavier... creates great stripes!! All the best

Great Review Mate, the best you've done yet i'd say. The Toro i think is deffo the better machine, the bigger wheels, better engine and longer bars alone make it a better mower but when i saw the bag almost full and the shute empty!! no comparison! top work mate!

But since 2000 Briggs have changed the engines so much where kwaki and Honda hardly have changed. Thanks for watching mate.

Brought the hayter last year from goodrowes Chichester for £1:600:00 it was a good mower but didn’t last three months. The handle bars broke and had to be welded then soon after the drive cable broke. I have a hayter that is over 35 years old and built like a tank -we still use it today. The new ones are cheaply made and don’t last , I wouldn’t buy another

Great video I'm looking at buying a roller mower i like the Toro but from what I can see it's 66kg rather then the honda pro at 58kg so thinking honda. Both a similar price
@GregsMowing
@GregsMowing 5 жыл бұрын
Hi. Thanks. The 56 pro is 58.5kg. To be honest the toro with the big wheels and correct length handlebars I could hardly tell the difference. Few things to consider over the Honda. One being important from my experience and others is the rollers. Split ribbed rollers are better in damp conditions than hondas smooth rollers. The Hayter/Toro has 22” not 21” cut. Wider roller and are very fuel efficient. I can’t comment on how the gxv160 is on fuel but if you consider for the money it seems a no brainier for wider cut and stripe. All have BBC and the Hayter/Toro is more comfortable imo with no hinge sticking out like the Honda. Each to their own. Thanks for watching 👍

Fair point. They said it’s narrow as you blow more force. Like with a handheld blower. The flat nozzle gives a more powerful blow than a wide nozzle. However if you cutting long grass it’s got more chance of clogging 🤷🏻‍♂️

I am from the US we don"t see many roller mowers here if it not filling up it can be the blade if it is mulch and bagging blade try a high lift blade and if the Hayter is hunting the governor may need adjusting or has some trash in the carburetor that is what I have seen in forty years of repairing lawn equipment
@GregsMowing
@GregsMowing 5 жыл бұрын
Hi Tim. Well from the very first fire up every new 850ex engine has hunted a lot. So must be in the design?🤔. The new blade creates a lot of lift but they have regulations to comply with for noise etc. I don’t think there is an option for these mowers to get a high lift blade. Don’t think one exists being 22” long and the hole size being important. But baring in mind these aren’t designed to mulch. This was thick wet grass and they did better than previous generation Hayter mowers and are up their in top 5 roller mowers in the market. Once the bag is full it’s very very heavy. Kinda glad they weren’t full in the video as I might get a hernia 😱😬. Thanks for watching. I think Minnesota football (soccer) club has a prostripe in their tool cabinet so you should be able to get them over there if you want to stand out 👍

Hi there, have you noticed how the hayter 56 pro kicks out any leaves when the bag is empty? I get any leaves picked up being thrown out the left side and any bumps on the lawn looses the load. The bag is so light it’s embarrassing. Any ideas on how to stop this? Thanks

Hi Matt. Have had the bouncy bag issue plenty of times and I’ve definitely told Hayter! You could add some little hooks onto the deck for the bottom of the bag. So it’s more snug. Regarding not collecting leaves with an empty bag - I had that last autumn. I recon the bag is just full of crap in the weave and no air can escape so it just goes round and round and fall out the side. Again I’ve told Hayter. Best to wash them as much as possible really. Could stab some holes in the bag too to let more air out. Hope that helps.

Russell the first time I saw it at saltex it didn’t have the grip. One I demoed did but the one I bought didn’t. To be honest I’m not fussed as using the 56 for a few months the grip quickly wears and leaves marks on your hands. They are only £7/8 from my dealer so you could get one(will fit 48/56 models). Does seem strange not to add it to the machine though your right.
