I'm hoping you can help me...I have an old Stanley pressure washer that I haven't used in over 10 years. I recently connected it and the machine turns on but the GFCI light is red. I thought they were supposed to be green light and red meant something was wrong but after watching your video I see that even your replacement is red. Should mine be ok then? According to my manual, it sounds like it is supposed to be red when working but not sure.
Thank you so much for making this video. I was getting so frustrated with this. I threw the spool across my porch twice and almost gave up. This video saved my blood pressure 😂
That trimmer head on your model is a quick feed system. There is no need to remove the cap and go through what you just did. Just line up the arrows and holes, feed the line to equal lengths on both sides and use the knob on top to pull the line in with about 6 inches left and you are all set!!
His method is way easier. That cap gets stuck and is a pain in the butt and doesn't always catch. The method shown in this video saved me time and frustration.
Not sure if you're still looking at comments, but I need help. My Mom didn't realize a rag fell down the disposal and now I can't get it out. I tried the Allen wrench thing and I can't even get it to turn so that thing must be really jammed in there. Any other suggestions? I've tried everything I can think of, but I can't budge that rag.
this is NOTHING like the correct way to replace string on this weed eater. as a matter of fact, the correct way is fairly ingenious. you can see the correct way here. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-twqd5IahC2I.html
Hey, my Greenworks 3000 psi power washer keeps shutting off after a few seconds and I noticed the GFCI shuts off immedically after it's turned on. I tried in an outside outlets that is also CGCI and an inside regular outlet and it's the same thing. I also noticed, it's not a grounded plug and it's a bit wobbly in the outlet. I tried bending the prongs but it's still wobbly. I think I need to fix it and I'd like to change the power washer plug from 2 prongs to 3 prongs with grounded feature only because I think it will hold better in the outlet and I used it outside anyway where everything plus has a GFCI plug. Do I first have to open up the old CFCI to see if there's a ground? I only had this washer for a year and it was brand new. Thank you for any help you can give to me.
As someone who works on electrical things, first, I'd troubleshoot and be sure there is not a ground fault before wasting money on a non returnable replacement part. I can check with a meter. For those who cannot do that, I recommend putting on a standard 3 prong plug as a test. No burning? Probably no ground fault. Before that, remember though...for many years pumps and other devices that run on AC voltage that handle water had no GFI, and people were NOT being electrocuted right and left. If my cord type GFCI failed, I'd be fine with replacing with a standard 15A plug.
Its the 4th time Im going to use my pressure washer and I'm already having this issue. That GFCI plug is probably going to run me like close to $30 if not more 🤦 thanks for the video. Very well explained, short and to the point 👍
So I work at lowes and the thing about this is there is no replacement brush heads available not even in our system so if you get this try 2 keep your brush as long as u can because when it's done It's DONE
like their 6 inch chainsaw, when the brush goes bad, they replace the entire tool lol. its a great deal for the chainsaw and honestly not sure why they dont offer the brush or in the chainsaws instance the chain. 5 years of no hassle replacement though, exchange enough times from heavy usage and should be fairly easy to come out ahead. Oddly enough when i warranty swap my tools they keep giving me new receipts that they say resets the warranty date so on some tools and especially batteries the warranties should have been long gone but are still ongoing. My drill i bought in 2020, but the battery warranty is ongoing until 2027 due to the way they have been swapping my stuff out. no complaints there :D
I’m actually trying to fix my friends right now, it’s either the drive shaft our clutch same brand as yours. Can you make a video for replacing those our taking the weeder apart a little I’m a little afraid of breaking something on here
This was almost helpful. More details please. It’s like watching shady tree mechanic. After the break we will install the alternator and when they came back the alternator was already back in So you don’t see how to install the alternator for example.
Could you please elaborate on what else you would like to see? I feel like it was pretty detailed, just cut out unnecessary footage and tried to get straight to the point because most people don’t want to sit and watch a 20 minute video of someone restringing a weedeater
@@TheColeFix well maybe your hand gets in the way. Like I see you thread the like into the hole and wrap it. But could not see what you did with the end of the line. Then how you got it into the other doodad. Maybe a little slower might help. It was good other wise. Just felt like I missed something or went fast to try and do it at same time. First time with a weed wacker and being “independent”. I appreciate the help. I truly do.
Thank you so much! My husband passed away recently, and I feel like I can't do anything without him. This was easy even for me and worked like a charm!
