I have this exact Atlas 80 V electric string trimmer and I really like it because it cuts really good but adding more trimmer line to the head was always really hard but lately it's nearly impossible for some reason I think my trimmer had got warped or something and more worn out and I think it was warp when I first got it but it cut so good I kept it instead of getting another one but the last time I added trimmer line to it then it was nearly impossible so I really need to buy a replacement head that's preferably a different brand that's easier to use so would you know which replacement universal head would actually work good that's affordable and of course much easier to use for this Atlas 80 V string trimmer?

NIce use of what you have. I grew up on the farm and farmed myself for many years so I've seen a lot of accidents. I cringed every time I saw your son step behind the tire as you backed up a bit. When I was young I watched a man beside me reach over to relax at the end of the row working on a potato harvester. He absent mindedly put his finger in a moving chain. It ripped the end of it off in a split second.

Nice video! I just bought this same saw a couple of days ago. It worked great for me. The 15ft claim I realized is that it assumes that you are 6ft tall and added to the 9ft tool length it gives you 15ft of reach off of the ground. I had to use a ladder to reach a lot of the limbs I need to cut. My only complaint is that the white plastic bar chain oil reservoir level indicator is useless. I can’t see anything through it. They should have made it clear. Other than that, it’s an awesome pole saw. The angled bar is a must!
@tractorstrailsandlivingfreeАй бұрын
Thanks! I'm realizing some of things too. I've heard about the reservoir leaking oil. Not sure if that's true yet, but the other day I realized the reservoir was empty. So either it leaked in my truck bed or it uses a good amount of oil. So keep an eye on it for sure. I've also ran into a couple times where it didn't seem to cut to well at a reach. So the verdict is still out on it but it has been very useful for a couple of tasks I've been putting off due to lack of this type of tool.

I think battery outdoor tools are job dependent. I have the Atlas pole saw and took down a very large flowering cherry tree on one charge. I have the Atlas hedger trimmer and it works great.

"DON'T DO THIS!". You are well meaning but you are misleading people. If you simply turn the bolt by grabbing the roll pin, you can adjust the lower limit of the hitch (or deck). The nut is square because it is supposed to fit in between the brackets. You DON'T TURN THE NUT, you turn the threaded bolt. FYI you should replace the roll pin with the right size.

All that were left was 10;000. God said still to many, to take those that remain to drink from the river...... All those who drank directly from the river..... to sent hem Home-------------- that left 300.... ..... He gave each a container with a candle in it..... they surrounded the camp, screamed the battle cry, and the disoriented enemy ran....
