    We bought a Flymo a bit back. First it tried to electrocute me then i repaired the safety switch and it electrocuted me again then went up in puff of smoke.
    Went to LIdl bought the cheapest mower they had and it is 100 times better!

    You deserve it M8. Those 12hr shifts must be killer, and then you have to come home and mow the lawn.

    There is actually an easy fix under the nuts and bolts I would suggest you to look and see if there's any washers because where you connect the handle to the mower that should be set of washers and grip the handle properly
