They’re pretty much the same machine - it’s the same design When we bought the rights off Bosch we didn’t take the names we only took the designs so the Atco balmoral is now the Kensington - with a few changes over time

Nice lawnmowers, I own an Atco Balmoral 17S and I wonder if it is basicaly same with Allett Classic 17L as I want to get some additional cassettes for mine. Please answer. Thank you!

I have a Qualcast classic petrol 35 - similar to the Allett classic in this video, I also bought the scarifier cassette, and have scarified the lawn with it. The only problem I have with it is the grass box keeps on popping-out of the metal tubular cradle - which is annoying and unsafe, I have to release the blade lever and put the engine into idle and knell down and press the box back onto the cradle and continue mowing 😕, it appears that the vibration from the engine is causing that, and when they designed the Kensington/copied it from acto, the box is hung onto the frame - which would prevent that from happening 😉.

We have the Allett Classic that replaced the Qualcast Classic Petrol.. same grass box design. Have you got the moulding into the hoop at the front rather than on the hoop?

@@ALLETTMOWERSUK - 🤨, the grass box is quite old (as is the mower itself) if the plastic is worn out and that it has lost its ability to grip the cradle? I see if I get the mower out later and take some pictures and comment them to this thread -

Hi Austin - So does the dethatcher cartridge actually fit with the Classic 17l? Or is it just not recommended?
@ALLETTMOWERSUK Жыл бұрын
Yes it fits! We don’t recommend it due to the fact you’ve only got preset heights of cut with the Classic so you’re not going to get the best out of the cartridge Laura
@williamwalker38372 жыл бұрын
I wonder can the galvanised front roller and comb be added to the Classic to add weight and cut efficiency/effectiveness?
@ALLETTMOWERSUK2 жыл бұрын
Some people have done this themselves but it’s not something that’s on the less premier products as a standard feature The rake and steel front roller is on the Kensington and liberty 43
@waltvancourt50523 жыл бұрын
2000 usd vs 1500. My new liberty 43 the self propelled belt/ spring was out of adjustment, bail handle tension was to loose, took multiple times to get the setting correct where i could hand push when i get around bushes and shrubs and at the same time get the rear roller to self propell. How about a video lesson on getting the correct fine adjustment. Thanks.

Having bought a classic 14 a couple of years ago, and having bought the verticutter, scarifier, dethatcher cartridge at the time, I’m quite perturbed that you’re now saying the classic is only really ideal for the normal and scarifier cartridge? Not sure why you would’ve sold the other cartridges in that case.
@Bassbaby8383 жыл бұрын
Also, with the other cartridges, there isn’t an ‘ideal’ height which is mentioned when bought.

Hi paul this is only because you’re stuck with 6 pre set heights You get much more precision with the Liberty 43 / Kensington model as you can change the height of cut incrementally
