Reviews Makita PLM4618
After a month and a half of rather gentle operation, the grass cutting height adjustment lever broke off. From the predetermined breaking point it can be seen that the lever was not attached to the base for more than 20% of its area.
Looks like a great mower. Quiet, perfect start from the 1st time, great performance, works even with perennial grass on uneven ground.
Haven’t found it yet. Maybe I would like to be stronger – sometimes it falters. The wheel drive is weak – it stops on bumps.
I use it on a 20 hectare property, half of the property is more or less flat, the other half are ravines. On the flat half you can turn off the drive and just run the mower and she’ll have time to cut it all! Cuts down mounds of moles without slowing down. Cut a stone in half! Yes, some kind of soft, apparently limestone, but still. The Briggs-Stratton engine starts surprisingly well, half a turn every time. I will only have all of the following devices with these motors. I took her as the cheapest option, I thought she would die on day 1 due to bumps and hills but no. I skated for about 5 hours, changed the oil and continued to battle. Branches, sticks crumble without realizing it. Sometimes it clogs up in last year’s grass and mulch mode so it stops throwing grass and stalls. True, that rarely happens. I don’t use a grass catcher because there’s a lot of grass, you don’t walk around with it, although it’s + – convenient.
Ergonomic, easy to use, silent, excellent value for money
I write a rating – 800 m2 with a grass collector, 100 m2 in mulch mode immediately after the first use. Grass about 40 cm high, they only cut it with a trimmer. The website is in the medium term. The grass collector is clogged every 20 to 25 meters with such grass. Therefore, mowing should be regular in the future. There is a comfortable window through which grass flies into or not (it means that it is clogged). In mulch mode in the ugly area, he met grass into the waist more The grass collector is quite tall, two herbal knowledge = 1 car. 85 percent are filled with full volume. A comfortable scheme – you mow and destroy the grass collector in a car, the second takes a car to be a composter. The automatic handle is very comfortable, in general the mower is very ergonomically made, everything is thought through to the smallest detail. The speed can be used with the left hand with the left hand and with the speed regulator (always maximum, otherwise, the mower makes high, is for dense mode for density, for leveling). The wheels are wide, the plastic is durable, the front with holes, the rear are matt. Setting the height in a movement – do not set the wheels separately. The Briggs & Stratton engine, the eyes of the eyes for such a mowing size, the oil was filled with a completely synthetic SAE 5W-30, half a liter. AI-92 petrol is awarded, 96 dB was given, at a distance of 15 meters a mower is very gently audible, the child slept in a stroller while I mowed
I came across an earthen hill, the movement stopped moving , nothing terrible. The main thing is not to meet the reinforcements or the camel so as not to bend the shaft. I bought a mower for 14270 directly from the market. In my opinion, the purchase is very pleased, ideal for the price category of up to 20,000, and it is not necessary to have the perfect lawn.
I bought myself because it was necessary for parents, they are older people. I liked the price and the size. And in general she met the expectations – mowing, quiet, but conscientiously. More of this unit is not required. Let’s see what will happen until the end of the season, but now satisfied.
It mowed well if the grass is not very high, then the mulch (nozzle in the kit) is scrapped, sel f-propelled, without exertion it is even in an inclined area, with the exception of the mulch, the grass can throw it on the right side And collect yourself in the grass collector.
глохнет на высокой (> 50 cm) grass, after a week of the operation a piece of iron came under the knife of a mow: a zazubina on a knife, a curved crankshaft, a hole in the crankcase. Out of. The service expressed prices: cover – 2500 Re, crankshaft – 2500 Re, work – 3500 Re. The new engine is sold (1 shop in St. Petersburg) at a price of 7500 Re. As a result, a new DDE WYS21 mower for 7500 re was bought and the engine of the B&S 500 series for Makita, only performance strengthers (4 l) as “native” (2.77 pages) for half an hour. The lawn is examined with the metal detector.
I recommend for a wel l-made lawn. Simply in management, a child of 10 years of copes. Nute Assembly, a wel l-known brand.
Good engine, good assembly. The speed of movement is more than sufficient. Mowed evenly. The lawnmower reacts perfectly on an uneven lawn. 7 options for choosing a mowing height are suitable for almost every situation.
1. No motor protection. On the second day of operations, a large granite stone was hit. The result – the knife resembles a saw, and the crankshaft looks like a figure eight. The solution was to remove the crankshaft from a similar engine with a dead piston. If there weren’t a similar engine on hand, it would be cheaper to throw the lawn mower in the trash. 2. There is no flush hole on the deck, which is difficult to clean after use. 3. It is not clear where to look for a mulching blade. I didn’t find it in Citylink. Others have never heard of such a model. 4. With tall grass (more than 20cm), the side discharge is clogged, you need to clog and clean it, it’s not very convenient even with a bag because you have to shake it out very often, 5-10 meters , depending on the vegetation .
The combination of properties makes it a good lawnmower for terrain that is not very flat and has little vegetation. STONES AND REINFORCEMENT – Death to the engine.

Thick heavy grass (dandelion with clover) takes the second, third time. All grass discharge openings are clogged. Side discharge for low lawn only.
They mowed an area of 20 hectares of clover with a dandelion, 40-50 cm high, I managed it in 3 passes. And without a grass catcher box, because it is clogged after 10 meters. 5 hours mowed with a short break. It is ideal for a lawn no higher than 20 cm.
before that there was a gardena 32, but somehow it didn’t mow much, the grass was totally shredded. I decided for a long time, but for the money this one had a self-propelled. the lawn mower is not very heavy, you can do without self-propelled, but the additional cost compared to 4617 is less than a thousand, so it is worth buying this mower. Read instructions, no experience, I only started using it an hour later. and so happy with the purchase.
