Thanks for watching. This edger belongs to a good friend of mine, and it has some problems starting. But before I work on it, I'm going to try a different way of clean it.

lovely work on the cleaning on the lawn edger you got done for a friend and to me the valves might out of adjustment or maybe a sticky throttle cable but yeah easy to fix that one by simply spraying some good lubrication in there or simply replacing it etc.

Looks like new now but I noticed the scars on the side where the pull rope is and it was pulled straight up at one time and not that severe angle like now . I believe its a lot safer now being away from the nasty blade . Just wondering

@INSIDEHOUSEGARAGE 2 жыл бұрын

you have a very good eyes, Yes, from what I gathered, they like to have the rope close to the machine, so they can pull as much rope as possible for each pull.

I'd like to use a water hose to clean my equipment but my house has so much power its almost like I'm using a pressure washer using a nozzle identical to the one you used in this video it go's about 15-20 feet its definitely enough to damage stickers and even paint. And I can't even adjust the pressure at the house faucet because it's pretty much just on or off. What do you suggest I do?

@INSIDEHOUSEGARAGE 2 жыл бұрын

wow, that's some crazy pressure, I would just keep the nozzle far enough away so you don't damage it.
