Worx WG430 13 Amp Electric Leaf Mulcher

مكينة طحن لاوراق الاشجار تعمل بشكل جيد ولكن المشكله انها تعمل بنظام الكهرباء 120v مما تطلب مني شراء كيبل + محول من 220v الى 110v لتشغيل الجهاز .

Buen servicio a domicilio. Defectos de la maquina: Enchufe americano, estamos en España, se necesita un enchufe europeo. ( ver foto) Falta una pieza en el bombo de triturar ( ver foto) Lo mas grave, solo funciona a un Voltaje de 120 V. se necesita un trans formador de 220 a 120 V.

I've been looking for something like this for a few years. We have a 2 acre property with over 25 maple trees ranging from 5 years old to well over 30 years old = lots of leaves. This shredder worked for me. In what normally takes 3 full weekends of raking, collecting, bagging, transporting to the back forest and/or burning, took only 3 full days of raking, shredding and transporting to the back forest to decompose. The construction of the unit is pretty good. I visually compared it to other makes and this one looked like it would be tougher and stronger overall. I think it is. I tried shopping around but Amazon was the ONLY place I could find this (in Canada) which means I am sure it was not the best price. If I see a used one for sale, I will definitely get a second one. The unit shredded dry leaves and even slightly damp/wet leaves with little issue. It does not handle small twigs well at all so they need to be screened out manually. This is due to the thin plastic 'weedwhacker" type strings used. When the strings get worn down to about half, then the leaves start bunching up and clogging. A vigorous rocking motion to the whole unit helped until the strings were changed. Lots of online suggestions to replace with wire and maybe I will try that next year. It is loud but not louder than expected for what it is. It was very dusty when the leaves were really dry but again, that should be expected with something like this. For relocating the shredded leaves, use extra heavy-duty garbage bags and you can reuse them multiple times.

I bagged by hand 350 recycle bags (50 gallon) last year, pressed and compressed. Beautiful scenic Massachusetts leaves. Do I have your attention now? When this device is properly used, it performs. I have now been through three weeks of leaf season, with a total of mulch in 25, 50-gallon recycle bags. The first few bags were done with the product as designed, the remainder with a couple of modifications. First, let me thank all those who offered constructive suggestions in the prior 25 reviews. I picked some good ideas out of there to make a solution that worked well for me. Let me set the stage: $1,000 for a commercial shredder/chipper is out of my budget. But I needed to do something. I have 12 very large, mature, 50-year old oak and maple trees in my yard. My landscaper quit fall cleanup on my 7-years ago, after his crew of five spent an entire day cleaning up. It's "too much" he said to me. A crew of three high school football players hardly made a dent in my yard, after laboring for six hours. It has been taking me six full weekends by myself to bag the leaves. There are no other options in my town, I don't own a truck. In a typical year, 250 bags was average. 200 after we pruned the trees, but soon after than the trees took off again, up to 350 bags last year. I started using it out of the box as-is. Rule number one: READ AND COMPREHEND THE !@$% INSTRUCTIONS. It is very clear it that it is only intended for leaves. Period. End of Sentence. Leaves. RULE NUMBER TWO: Pick up all the sticks and twigs from your yard BEFORE the leaves fall. Case 1: I want the leaves right into the 50-gallon bags. I tried the 4 corner tear mentioned, I did not like the results, especially since I have to lift and drag the full bag. MODIFICATION #1: I went out and got some aluminum tubing that fit over the legs, extending the height by somewhere around 8 inches. Result: I filled about 10 50-gallon bags of mulch with this method. Used the expander ring to keep the bag open. The bags barely touch the bottom of the orange chassis. I was extremely careful to keep the sticks out. I went through 2 or 3 sets of cutting line. It went fine, but a little slower than I had hoped. You have to "sprinkle" the leaves in, no pushing and cramming. The jury was still out on whether this was any faster than than bagging by hand. However, it reduced the bag count and cost and it saved me a lot of pushing and shoving. There IS leakage from the side but it only amounts to a few handfuls, definitely worth the convenience of having a bag setup to go in a minute. Case 2: Windy day, one more modification. MODIFICATION #2: Upgrade the cutting line to .105 inches (2,7 mm). I bought a 220 foot refill from Home Depot for a bit under $15 if I recall correctly. I came with a littler cutting tool right atop. I cut them to identical size. They fit into the WORX slot snugly, with a little force. If you want, you can ream/drill out those holed a little bit. Result: The thicker line eats leaves MUCH FASTER when all things are the same. I then got brave and went to a section of the yard and tried a pile full of mixed twigs (up to 1/8") and it just chewed them up. Granted, there was some line reduction at that time, but it's clear, that .105 line will make the job go much faster (I've done 4 bags so far with the .105) and it will handle small twigs so you don't have to obsess over every last one. Other observations: The stand, when used to hold the bag upright along with the ring to expand the bag top, make for a GREAT stay-in-place bag retainer on a windy day when you still have to hand-bag a few things (like pine needles). This is a very, very useful feature for windy days. I know I waste a lot of time on windy days trying to keep it open. Use a 12-gauge extension cord. Don't fool around. This is a 13 amp motor. You don't want the motor burning up because it can't get enough juice while you're pushing leaves in. Use goggles and be sure you position your shredder DOWNWIND OF YOU. I don't think a mask is required unless you have respiratory problems. Never, never, never stick you hands in to the rotating string. I did, it's not nice. I do not recommend wet leaves. wait for a windy day to dry them out first. SUGGESTIONS FOR THE MANUFACTURER 1) Include leg extenders to accommodate a 50 gallon recycling bag. 2) Include a skirt below the orange chassis which would go down the interior of the bag. 3) Upgrade to .105 cutting lines 4. Include Stupid Stickers all over the outside of the product just like ladder manufacturers do. DO NOT PUSH LEAVE DOWN IT. DO NOT INSERT STICKS. USE GOOGLES. USE A 12-GAUGE EXTENSION CORD. I have four more dreadful weeks of leaf bagging ahead. I cannot tell you what the reduction rate is because leaf fall varies by weather conditions each year. It still won't be easy, and it will take a lot of time. I'm hoping it saves a) money on bags, b) fewer bags to manhandle, c) less hours bagging d) less bending, pushing and shoving. The jury is still out, I will have my final verdict in December. So far it's a 5-star. It's no saviour, but it does appear to have some benefit.
