Very helpful trimmer head swap video. Lots of outdoor power equipment maintenance and repair videos on your channel. Are you up for a collaboration? Hipa supplies parts for small engines and maybe we would work together to help more people in the community.
I did everything exactly as you stated. My issue is I can't get it to turn for it to feed. It's locked up once everything is put together. How can I solve that?
I found the fix if you bought a new timemaster and it squeals. It's so simple. I think I can see it in this video. Once you take off the pulley cover, there is a cable running near the engine that is not installed correctly. Unscrew the metal piece and slide it toward the skinny part of the cable(to the right) then bring it back with the cable in the loop. Once tighten I turned on my mower and not only no squeak, there was a powerful roar. Hope this helps. It the only cable running through the front I believe.
are u saying cable should go through hole on adjuster. also when i tigthen cable it moves brake away from pulley what is proper way just brought first use thinking about returning also it appears pulley is movibg side to side when blade engages. thanks '
I’ve had my mower for close to 9-10 years and never knew how to adjust it! Def needs it as it’s a workout pushing this beast. I also have the big league lawn roller attachment with about 14 pounds added to it. Hahaha. Hopefully this just fixed my problem.
A B C D E F G...why couldn't they just make it numbers. Also $1600 mower has parts breaking routinely? Yikes....I'm conflicted about buying this for personal use since it looks like you spend as much time fixing as you do mowing. Good detailed video though.
This is so helpful. I have been chopping away at a big pile of similax I took down. Next, I’m going to use the hedge trimmers to make the job faster and easier.
Great video! Thanks for sharing the details to help me out keep mine going in the 5th year of use!!! Love this mower, been a workhorse for me. But, it does need regular maintenance, new belts is a regular big headache...
I am not allowed to put cuttings of Norweigen blackberries that grow on my small urban lot, into my green recycle can for curbside compost pick up. So I have to dry them out first and then I burn them in my Weber BBQ. It's tricky. I want to get them dry fast so they will burn. I like to lay them over a small backyard table to dry, but I've got a lot more prunings than that. I am back to cutting them manageable lengths and putting them loosely in a trash barrel. Still need more drying space.
If you have an open area that gets direct sunlight, spread out some tarps and lay the prunings out to dry. I keep my excess in totes to reduce exposure to moisture until there's a sunny day.
@@violetdexx9970 I've burned one batch in the Weber BBQ and it is a little tricky. I hate losing stickers in the yard as I love to go barefoot. I had one 5 gallon bucket of dried up cuttings and that dumped into the BBQ very neatly. It is dry enough out here I can actually dry them like that and I have lots of those buckets. I am also considering cutting stuff up into regular big paper grocery bags and just putting the whole bag on the fire. I think they dry up quicker when they are cut up so that may make up for the fact that I got it stuffed in buckets.
Thank you for this video. I know this might sound stupid but I never had a dad show me anything when growing up. He never taught me anything about maintenance when I got my first vehicle, for example. He passed away in 2009 when I was 32. I look to RU-vid now to learn how to understand basic skills of things I should have known growing up. A video like this is so hopeful. I have this exact chainsaw, the Echo CS-400! It’s my first chainsaw I’ve bought and I have no clue on how to do any maintenance on it and how to actually cut wood properly, etc. Thank you so much. You have no idea!!
