I bought a new hedge trimmer Original Message May 12, 2005 8:15 pm
Hey guys, well I finally made up my mind on a trimmer. I bought the Stihl HL45 I only used it for a min or two today at home. I went and priced it at my local dealer he told me I could have it for 300.00. Well just for the heck of it I called another place and he said well it runs for 379.00 but its on sale for 330.00 which that is what my dealer sells it for but he took 30.00 off of it beacuse I do alot of business with him. I'll do a full review on it after tomm and sat. it's gonna get broke in thats for sure lol. later Mike

I'm sorry to hear that Mike. Maybe if you kept pulling until it sputtered or coughed then taken off the choke it might have started better for you. I'm not sure what Stihl's directions are though.
