Older model but still runs well. Selling on behalf of father. He assures me it covers 9-18 holes on a charge as the battery was bought new and has been little used. Clubs are Z model and PowerBilt. Comes with umbrella and rain covers and assorted bits in the spring-loaded box seat.
Motor is in excellent condition but the body leaves a bit to be desired! Starts and runs well, slight clicking sound when pulling backwards but otherwise cuts well. Serviced by Stihl in Sept '24 - new blades, plug and throttle cable. Only selling as two households are coming together.
With self-cleaning brushroll. Purchased in Masterton Sept '24. As new condition with booklet & 24 month warranty. Only selling as we are bringing two households together. Paid $549 and hardly used.
