BRIGGS & STRATTON has extended its integrated InStart technology to the mid-market on the 575iSi and 675iSi Series engines, following the successful market introduction of its 475iSi engine. The all new 575iSi and 675iSi Series single cylinder, four- stroke, air–cooled petrol engines, are now available with Briggs & Stratton’s award-winning InStart technology. No priming, choking or pulling is needed to start the engine, the innovative system featuring a lithium-ion battery, is integrated directly into the engine to deliver instant starting.
The iSi engine range is equipped with an integrated lithium-ion battery system that makes charging simple; the battery is non- removable meaning the charging cable connects directly to the engine. One full charge of the lithium-ion battery provides up to 200 starts and will last the whole mowing season.
OEM customers specifying the 575iSi and 675iSi Series InStart on decks can offer end-users either push-button or key starting options. Combining the power and performance of petrol together with starting at a touch, the 575iSi and 675iSi come standard with Briggs & Stratton’s innovative ‘Just Check & Add’ oil system. With Just Check & Add, easy operation is taken to a new level whereby the engines require no oil changes throughout their operating life - just an occasional top-up.

FOREST GARDEN has some perfect Christmas gift ideas for the green fingered – in fact, a whole new range of Grow Your Own products created just for the thousands of newly-recruited kitchen gardeners.
Grow Bag Tray Container - RRP £74.99: Truly an idea whose time has come and a perfect gift for a family member who struggles with mobility. The Grow Bag Tray Container from Forest Garden encloses unsightly growbags
and makes the tending of your crops more accessible. It is designed around the standard 100cm long x 40cm wide grow bag system and the container features a crossbar for securing support canes. This product comes flat packed, with pressure treated wood to protect against rot and a 15-year ant-rot guarantee. Grow bag tray and grow bag not included.
Kitchen Garden Planters from £74.99: At 29cm deep, Forest Garden’s Kitchen Planters are the perfect depth for growing herbs and salads. Basil, chives, mint and tarragon, to name a few, thrive in shallower soils, as do lettuce, radishes, pak-choi and celery. Kitchen gardeners could even use these troughs for broccoli or spinach and fruit-lovers will find them perfect for strawberries. The planters come in two lengths – 1m and 1.8m and their height (70cm) makes it extra-easy to tend your crops. Each planter is supplied with instructions for self-assembly and the timber used is pressure treated to protect against rot. Forest Garden recommends lining the planter with a porous membrane before adding soil. The 1.8m planter requires 250 litres of compost and the smaller one, 130 litres.
Large Timber Cold Frame - £77.99: Give the gift of extra time! This large timber cold frame will allow annuals, perennials and some vegetable seeds that don’t require much heat to be started off nice
and early in the spring. Plus, it can add weeks onto your growing season in the autumn. The unit measures 38(h) x 109(w) and 63cm(d) and is made of pressure treated timber.
Caledonian Tiered Raised bed - £121.99: Create a colourful display of fruit,
vegetables or flowers in this tiered raised bed – a perfect gift for someone keen to grow their own but without enough space for a vegetable patch. The planter can
hold 250L of compost and the frame comes pre-notched so is quick and easy to assemble. Remember to line the trough with a permeable membrane if you are using it to grow food. n
