In today’s video I discuss the Idech Power Rotary Scissors. I use the rotary scissors, or landscaping blade, in the place of a trimmer (weed eater) and edger. The rotary scissors attachment ships with a set of adapters that allow you to attach it to MOST trimmers on the market. I opted to swap out the stock blades with the larger blades in order to protect the housing and prevent some wear and tear. I’ve used a string trimmer, stick edger, and for the past several years the rotary scissors, and they are easily my tool of choice to get consistently crispy edges. I’ve been using my landscaping blade for 4 seasons and will never go back to the world of string trimmers. I also use the rotary scissors to edge my live edge tree rings and flower beds. #lawninsider #powerrotaryscissors #bermudagrass #landscapingblade #edging

Great Job !! That’s a great tool to have ! No doubt !

@trevormuggeridge4560 Год назад

First Aussie 😁. Rhett, a great instructional video on a useful product to give you a great edge. 😎

@timborski1210 Год назад

I use the ego stick edger. Game changer especially with my miles of sidewalk. I do want of of those power scissors eventually though.

@Nikolasto77 Год назад

All your neighbors have dormant grass. Good job on keeping yours green!

@LawnInsider Год назад

I'm doing my best! It's really come back nicely in the past week. Hopefully I can get a video out this weekend to show everyone!

@dandydonslife9869 10 месяцев назад

How cool, gotta get me one of those, thanks.

@lawnpanda Год назад

Had no idea there was a larger blade! Its on my list to order now. On a side note, I always mow first. That way when I place my blade on the grass it will trim at the level that I mowed at.

@LawnInsider Год назад

Good feedback!

@RioTheHitman Год назад

Love the thumbnail 👌🏾

@LawnInsider Год назад

Thank you! Tried to get a little creative haha

@robertlevy4613 3 месяца назад

Just bought them just now. Between my Franken-Fiskars Electric Reel Mower snd the rotary scissors we are about to turn up 100%

@robertlevy4613 10 месяцев назад

My god that was satisfying to watch

@davidscales1464 Год назад

Great video. You may have mentioned , how durable (do the blades dull out quickly)?

@gasquirewell Год назад

The lawn insider got a Madden Ultimate team card 😂

@lew708 Год назад

Great to see you talk about the other blade geared more toward edging. No one has talked about that…There is also a smaller blade available that’s smaller than the standard blade that’s geared towards finer grass or getting a finer cut.

@LawnInsider Год назад

Didn’t know about the smaller blade! Will have to check it out.

@lew708 Год назад

SK-2824NW is the model number. I’ve never used it but would love to see it in action. Great content you have!🚀

@levihoward4470 Год назад

I love your scissors

@LawnInsider Год назад

Thank you!

@jameyhaz Год назад

I burned a hole in mine in the same place as yours....JB weld to the rescue. I miss using it as an edger.

@LawnInsider Год назад

I've actually thought about going that route too!

@austinite6625 Год назад

Great video! Would love to see you try and hold the rotary scissors sideways. So much more comfortable, so much faster. Basically the same direction but the stick facing your right at about 45 degrees.

@gergemall Год назад

Looks great.

@camerontyler-vann7340 10 месяцев назад

How long does the ryobi battery last with the scissors? Do you need multiple batteries?

@Rance120 10 месяцев назад

When you were weed eating along your porch and foundation, how does that not scratch it?

@danniecarmona2509 Год назад

Are your rotary scissors loud or is it the grease that makes them quieter?

@Alejandro_C62 Год назад

With your scalp, do you tend to irrigate more often? I usually do but with restrictions in place have you seen it recover well with less water? I let the mowing get away from me and hard scalped yesterday. Def fed it, threw down some Carbon and Hydretein.

@LawnInsider Год назад

I try to just maintain my normal watering schedule. Any added water from precipitation is a definitely plus though!

@hectorchavarria633 Год назад

What is the cost of the rotary scissors as I could not find it on Amazon

@jameshankins1514 2 месяца назад

I have a lot of rocks to trim around, north Arkansas. Basically a rock farm! Would this work?

@randyvelarde7448 Год назад

Hey Rhett does anyone make this circular head w the big blades already on it?

@LawnInsider Год назад

I believe Stihl has one, but I don't know if they fit on other trimmers.

@troyhenry3267 Год назад

Looks like Amazon is out currently with the larger blades. Will this fit a Echo gas straight shaft trimmer??

@LawnInsider Год назад

It should fit, but I couldn’t tell you 100%. They come with several adapters.

@shaunaw7596 Год назад

Looking good . Is that crabgrass growing all over ? Couldn’t tell but looked like it

@LawnInsider Год назад

No, no crabgrass. Just clumpy bermduda. I scalped last week though, so we're on the road to recovery now.

@joesapienza8121 Год назад

What brand of grease were you referring to that is hard to come by ?

@LawnInsider Год назад

I believe I was referring to the Maruyama grease. But there are some other good options currently available on Amazon right now. Just checked!

@kevinlancaster4535 Год назад

How is it around chain link fence?

@LawnInsider Год назад

I’m not sure! Seems to me like that might be an application where a string trimmer might be better. But I know that chain link isn’t easy on the string.

@juswalte Год назад

I also have this on my Ryobi HP 40v. Has the insert collar of the rotary ever backed out (and slide up the Ryobi internal shaft) that the scissors stop working? I've only used it 4 times but it happened to mine after the second use. It's like it needs a sleeve collar to go over the internal shaft that will keep the insert from backing out.

@LawnInsider Год назад

No sir, luckily I haven’t experienced that. In fact, I rarely ever use my string trimmer at this point. Pretty much leave this shaft on at all times.

@juswalte Год назад

@Lawn Insider i never use string trimmer either. Hard to explain the exact issue without a picture.

@letmebreakitdown2u152 Год назад

I thouhht that was how one keeps it steady! Letting the housing roll on the cement keeps it steady right? Otherwise you have to free hand it and expect it to ve straight?

@LawnInsider Год назад

Really once you put the blade between the sidewalk and the grass, it guides itself. I definitely prefer my larger blade now. No wear and tear on the housing at all.

@finallythetruthisout761 Год назад

Will this unit attach to the EGO 56V string trimmer?

@LawnInsider Год назад

I don't believe so, due to that automatic feed button at the bottom of the Ego shaft.

@imdmusic2012 2 месяца назад

I have that same Ryobi trimmer with this rotary scissors. after 20 minutes, the trimmer overheats. I may switch to Ego trimmer.

@LawnInsider 2 месяца назад

I’ve burnt up one without the brushless motor 3 seasons ago. I’ve now had this one 3 seasons with no issues whatsoever. I’m also no big Ryobi homer lol I just happened to already have a lot of the 40V system when I got into lawncare.

@imdmusic2012 2 месяца назад

@@LawnInsider yea mine is brushless. i ordered some grease, maybe that is all i need to do.

@imdmusic2012 2 месяца назад

@@LawnInsider I greased my rotary scissors. I replaced with the larger blades. i decided to just start using the 6.0 amp battery. My trimmer didn't overheat the entire time I used it. Not sure which thing I did that solved the problem, but problem solved.

@PNWlawnguy1973 Год назад

How much battery life do you get using this attachment?

@LawnInsider Год назад

I have a 5ah battery. I never have to change my battery whenever I’m working on my own lawn. I would think you’re good with a lawn up to 5K sq ft. Maybe even bigger if you don’t have to do the entire perimeter.

@randyvelarde7448 Год назад

How much is this attachment and the bigger blades

@LawnInsider Год назад

I think all in would be around $350, but the price fluctuates periodically... usually up unfortunately.

@troyhenry3267 Год назад

Brett, have you totally did away with using strings for all your edging and weed eating functions? You now just use exclusively the metal scissor attachment now right?

@LawnInsider Год назад

I will very occasionally use a strong trimmer. But with my day to day work on the lawn, I only use the landscaping blades.

@gergemall Год назад

Crispy edges is correct.
