Buy or hire the ACT300 if...
A walk-behind turfcutter used by landscapers and groundworkers to lift turf cleanly ahead of relaying or disposal. The Honda engine and 30cm blade are standard across UK tool hire fleets, which is why it turns up under HSS-style "Active" own-brand labelling as well as its own name.
