Hey bro what's up? Nice video. I think that some of the equipment manufacturers make are very heavy and I believe that they would cause injuries to the user in the end.
ОтветитьI have a Honda ULT 425 4 stroke. Yes it’s heavy but I love it.
ОтветитьHeavy? I looked at an Ego trimmer in 2023 and thought it was heavy w/o the battery. I decided to continue to use my little, light, Craftsman V20 for mundane trimming and save my Ryobi 2-cycle trimmer for heavy-duty trimning and for my attachment's use.
ОтветитьI’m a 71 yr old in pretty good fitness I just switched over to to battery operated ryobi reason is weight. But I also find it very clumsy to use not balanced well at all very top heavy. I’m definitely not a fan of battery operated equipment I would never buy battery lawnmower main reason is the cost batteries go for as much as $300 completely crazy these companies are making a fortune ripping off consumers. Great video I 👍still do my own maintenance on my small engines.
ОтветитьAnother great video. Thanks
ОтветитьI have a 4-stroke trimmer (universal - can also do chainsaw and bush-trimming) and i love that it's so quiet compared to the 2-stroke variants. Also not having to have pre-mixed fuel is a pro for this type.
ОтветитьAll my hand-held OPE (trimmers, edgers, etc) are 2-cycle, and even being light as they are, I almost always use a support strap. My arms give out much faster if I have to support the full weight of the tool.
Would I want a 4-cycle piece of equipment and all the additional weight and maintenance that comes with it? Absolutely not! If I could find a 2-cycle mower in decent condition for a decent price, I'd buy it.
If your young that trimmer honestly isn’t that heavey I used one to clear Thorns and the took 3 hours also 4cycle trimmers sound so good too
ОтветитьNot at all! 2 stroke echos for me for sure!!
ОтветитьEveryone is different but for me I can handle a bit of weight to the point it’s not noticeable anymore
ОтветитьGreat video👍🙏👍🙏
ОтветитьBel video mi serbrava un po' bloccato quella coppia conica o no??
ОтветитьIf that's what I had...............you know how feel. A also gave my gas spare mowers to my pal that has his own saw shop. He'll take care of them and will use them. The battery stuff will have to pull the load now for sure. Toots likes her Kobalt battery pressure washer just fine. I'm out of the loop and so is all my gas equipment but the blowers. I feel plumb naked! Thanks and a good week for you!
ОтветитьThis is one item where I prefer battery power. The weight and vibration of gas powered trimmers are exhausting for me.
ОтветитьI Only use 2 strokes for trimming, but I love 4 strokes like a TB304-s Because the TB304-s don't have those stupid pawls for a DEWALT/Worx or Craftsman edger attachment or string edging with a Honda HTT35LTA which I plan to get one of them soon
ОтветитьI agree with you to keep things simple. Heavy trimmer would not be feasible for me. I think 4 stroke engines on trimmers are jsut too cumbersome for even general maintaing. Thank for the insight!!!😀
ОтветитьMy dads Honda GX35 powered Line trimmer tested at 85 PSI & it has a decompression camshaft fitted & that's why the compression was that low,so that's probably why the line trimmer in the video was low on compression.
I did mention before that we have had no problems using the Chinese type of spark plug which only cost me $2 AUD & which is used in the "Chonda" (Chinese Honda copy) engines in a Honda engine.
In my experience when I was repairing the Stihl leaf blowers for my aunties work I managed to clean the Kill switch out on one of them I repaired,it got full of oil,dirt, dust & gunk,etc !
Heavy, low performance, crappy trimmer head you have to restring constantly. Remember, it could have a compression release that powers the compression reading. So glad I don't work on these budget brands any longer.
Ответитьis the valve train sohc or ohv
ОтветитьI don’t like the 4 stroke trimmers because of the weight. 30 years ago it would have been a different story, as I was in better health then. A few lengthy stints in hospital soon slowed me down, especially in the last 8 months when I nearly lost my life due to illness.
ОтветитьI've had one of these trimmers for many years now. Only put a new carb on it and it still runs fine. Not mixing gas helps my decision to keep using it. I'm 70 but still can handle this with no issues. Very dependable and convenient for the additional way to start it using a battery-powered starter. Works fine. Will keep it till it dies or I do.
Ответить2 cycle trimmers are the way to go. No valves to adjust. Just a carb clean maintenance.
I would definitely use a battery powered trimmer though. DeWalt makes an awesome 60V unit that Todd from Project Farm tested on his channel a while back. Was the best one he tested.
My Stihl fs550 is 22lbs 😉
ОтветитьI have a craftsman 4 cycle trimmer. It has a brush blade on it and i don't use it much
ОтветитьThank you for the video if my project is I just saved 2012 Troy-Bilt self-propelled lawn mower my people were using it and they didn't even know it was about ready to go two pieces the air filter was full of grass and oil I wants to run self-propelled works the Bell was really shredded but I can get a new belt you know I know how you feel when you can save a mower at gives a good feeling
Ответитьmy neighbor had an early 4 stroke trimmer . it didn't seem to spin enough rpm . maybe newer ones do though . wondering if you can use these on their side for extended periods w/out oiling problems ?
ОтветитьWhen it comes to weight I don't really notice it between my Echo PAS-2620 (25cc), Honda HHT25S (25cc) and my Craftsman (Troy-Bilt) 29cc units. That being said, I don't have the Craftsman anymore, just the engine as the shaft wore out, I was using my Honda up to about a week ago when it stopped working (needs new fuel lines and some carb work) and it's incredibly easy to start compared to the Echo as another commenter said, there's probably a compression release in the unit you were fixing in this video.
ОтветитьGood video
ОтветитьNone of that that engine is probably brand new. I’ve tested a fully brand new four stroke weedeater off the shelf and the compression was 75 psi there’s a compression release in those just like in lawn mowers
Ответитьdo valve covers need a specific torque setting to avoid leakage? Wouldn't a service include air filter, plug, and filter? Do you use an rpm sensor to check settings of idle and full throttle...or too much.....?
Ответитьfor me well maybe as 4 stroke aka 4 cycle stuff is not at all hard to work on depending on what needs attention and valves can be tricky for some but the carburetor aka carby is very easy and simple and as for the oil yep easy changes year after year including the spark plug and air filter and well regular cleaning the muffler/exhaust on the spark arrestor screen and yes a shoulder strap depending on the weight of the unit with the attachment as they not always the lightest for some people but for me not too bad and i think our Australian Company that was one brand here Rover has many units like these and i they also use the Troy built parts too from memory on their trimmers and leaf blowers from memory etc.
