Thank you for the excellent video. Solved my Husqvarna problem. Could even tell it had slipped on the shaft like in the video, Must have been gradual but the brush blade finished it off.

Thanks! Did this a few days ago and when the charge showed up it looked like an app charge for super thanks. I requested and received a refund. In the meantime, I realized it was my earlier support and thank you payment to you. Sorry!

I had a model older than this one that I love. My sister has difficulty with tools that are too heavy and she actually loved mine and found it easy to use kzfaq.infoUgkx_rBCFuDW1zD6blTGhLkvAkxU657uR_lG . This is a newer model but was even lighter which she really appreciates. She enjoys it and I no longer have to go to her house to trim as she can handle it fine. Haven't used it enough to comment on the battery life but lithium batteries last longer than the old style. Being cordless makes it easy to trim the far edges of the property. The entire yard can be trimmed with one charged battery.

The problem I had was on the residential model Husqvarna the shaft had too much forward and backward play and would disconnect from the motor kind of like your Stihl, but it is not easily fixable. I think the cause of it was from the storage option to take it apart, the shaft is 2 pieces instead of 1. Never buy a weed eater that has the option to remove half of the shaft because that is a major weak point.

You know? Call me weird...but I lube every bolt/shaft/what have you while installing anything because I know that if it goes TOGETHER it is going to have to come APART again. And I never...have to use special tools to get something off like the head of a trimmer. Lube your stuff guys.

WRONG WRONG WRONG Lubing hardware changes the torque coefficient of said fastener. Always follow the mfg recommendations when applying oil or never seize. Some bolts require them to Be torqued dry

@THEMOWERMEDIC1, I know this isn't a Stihl topic but just curious if you have seen the new 3020 from Echo, could a guy swap the flex cable for the steel driveshaft, if so what parts would a guy need? I'm getting it mainly to trim n cut weeds but some of the properties I'm on for my mom's boss have thick tree like weeds. Would like to bo both but thought I'd ask. Thanks JD

Ok but what if the drive cable is totally detached from the head. I can see my drive cable but it's resting on the wall of the shaft. I just don't know how to line it up to put it back in the head of the weed eater
@pattiannepascual Жыл бұрын
I did it to mine. you have to take it out,grease it and when you put it back in, you have to wriggling it until it catches at the top. I didn't know this and cursed for hours until I found a video explaining what to do.

How can i tell if it is the clutch drum or the clutch on a Shindaiwa? When i put the clutch drum on the shaft I can turn the drum & the trimmer head turns...but when i hook up the engine....the trimmer head does not turn...?

Can anyone shed light on something. I have seen all this topic and vids on Stihl. Have not crossed nothing yet on grease fitting and gearing. As in 1. Why do some have grease fitting and other newer etc may not? 2. Exactly how can one be greased with no fitting within gear box up by head? Example- I have a RC-56 and no grease fitting. Have a older 55 with fitting. Price for that box looks to be half of a new trimmer itself. Or is that exactly why they removed fitting. To make you by whole gearing box....
