I wanted something light weight and capable of cutting. This little string trimmer is just that kzfaq.infoUgkx_rBCFuDW1zD6blTGhLkvAkxU657uR_lG . The battery will last about half an hour. It cuts through most weeds and grass. I wanted to see what this trimmer could do and tried cutting down some brush. It does okay with light brush but heavy brush, not so much. This is a great tool for trimming around the yard. It's not great for clearing out brush but no one would expect it to be.Out of the box, this trimmer is extremely easy to use. All I had to do was attach the guard and load the battery.

This video saved me money! Before viewing this I thought I had to sacrifice my trimmer head and buy another. Also, your instructions are very thorough. Especially pointing out how useful using tape to mark the depth the shaft will insert. I would have probably skipped that step and ended up screwing it up. Keep making great content!

⁠@@TheLawnSauceHow would the Milwaukee Brush Tool Attachment work compared to the Rotary Scissors. The seem similar except the Milwaukee Attachment has less blades
@TheLawnSauce
@TheLawnSauce Жыл бұрын
@@apilkey Comparing the mechanics of the two, the brush cutter attachment uses a wracking motion much like the string trimmer attachment to chop off what it’s cutting. The rotary scissors attachment uses two blades rotations in opposing directions so the mechanical action is like cutting with a scissors. The brush cutter attachment is very primal in nature and is meant for rough cutting brush really quicky by hacking at it with a solid metal blade. The rotary scissors is for precise clean cuts. There is no way that I would take the brush cutter to a fine turf grass. Hope that makes sense.

@@TheLawnSauce Thanks yes that makes sense, I just bought the Milwaukee Trimmer and I’m also going to get the Edger Attachment. Was hoping the Brush Cutter Attachment would also help me get some nice edges but I guess not. Hopefully with just the two attachments it’ll look good and I won’t also have to get some Rotary Scissors. But would you say if I got the Rotary Scissors I wouldn’t need the Edger Attachment?
@TheLawnSauce
@TheLawnSauce Жыл бұрын
@@apilkey I think the string trimmer and edger attachment will cover all of your needs. I will never use the rotary scissors for the edging because it pretty harsh on the blades. Often times when edging, you’re digging into dirt where small rocks and dirt will dull and mess up the rotary scissors blades. For this reason, I prefer using the dedicated stick edger attachment. So on the edges of lawn, you may often have to trim the height of the grass blades and that’s where the string trimmer comes in. For my lawn, I use a reel mower with leaves a very straight and clean cut on the top of the grass blades. When I use the string trimmer to cut off some of bulk height of the edges, I can see a haze on the edge of my lawn left from the string trimmer. The haze is from scar tissue on the grass blade left from the wacking/shredding action of the string trimmer. This is where you might want to step up your game and invest in the rotary scissors. I compare the cut quality of the rotary scissors to a reel mowed cut. I compare the cut quality of a string trimmer to a traditional rotary mower cut as both use a wacking motion to cut the grass, often times leaving the tips of the grass blades slightly shredded.

They work great.. especially if you're reel mowing. It leaves a super clean cut, like a scissors.. No more shredded grass blade scars that can affect the color and health of the lawn. Also it doesn't fling rocks and crap so you can trim right up against parked cars and not have to worry about damaging other peoples property.

I wudnt even attempt to putting it on my battery stuff, the tolerances on that scissors attachment has so much drag on the motor it wud prolly drink the battery before I edged just pst the mailbox, ESPECIALLY will the milawaukee trimmer. Save yourself time and get a cheaper gas machine to run this rotary head, works way better. I Personally have tried it on like 8-9 of my commercial and non commercial trimmers and I think the cheaper stihl fs56 runs it overall the best, just my two cents

Seeing as you have all the attachments for the Milwaukee quik-lock system. Could you tell me if all the attachments use the same length down rod/connecting rod. If you converted the Milwaukee edger for the power rotary scissors instead of the extension rod would the overall length be the same? Thanks for your time and making this video. Cheers!

What is the advantage of the rotary scissors versus a brush cutter? Milwaukee sells a complete brush cutter attachment for 149, and this setup shown here would be 70 for the milwaukee extension and 300 or more for the rotary scissors which is ridiculously expensive. ??
@TheLawnSauce
@TheLawnSauce 2 жыл бұрын
Good question. Unlike the rotary scissors, the brush cutter is a blunt force chopping blade made for taking down tall stalks of brush. The rotary scissors cuts clean like scissors, leaving a super fine cut on the blades of grass. I reel mow, and the rotary scissors cuts super clean so it pairs nicely with the rotary scissors.

Looking at the whole process a few times, why didn't you simply depress the black plastic bushing button, turn it and leave it? Looking at the adapter length, it would've worked. Long term, it would help maintain the structural integrity of the extension shaft.
@TheLawnSauce
@TheLawnSauce Жыл бұрын
Hi Ed, good question. the shaft adaptor doesn't fit in the hole of the plastic bushing. You wont be able to slide the shaft completely into the IDECH head. I see your point for structural integrity however, metal sleeve adaptor and sturdy body of the IDECH head will actually reinforce the outer tubing of the extender shaft. Its actually moot point.

@@TheLawnSauce It looks like there is plenty of shaft sticking out from the bushing that the adapter does not need to enter the bushing. By leaving the bushing, the first screw has less of a chance of compressing the shaft when tightening. Also could pull the bushing out to drill hole big enough for the adapter to fit in as well. I purchased the pole saw first that comes with adaptor, so instead of getting trimmer and edger, convert the rotary scissors to handle both jobs for less. ✌🏽
