Great video Tim. I run Husqvarna equipment all day everyday for 4 years now, i have the RJD split shaft version and just cant fault these machines for reliability and durability
I have the bullbar version of this one. Great unit with good speed if you use a small 375 head and 2.4 or 2.7mm MAX. That way it spins fast and isnt bogged down. I like the stihl but the Husky edges it out I reckon.
Great video and reviews. I used my recently purchased 525 for the 1st time today. A couple of reviews on RU-vid said it doesn't work for edging. I found no issue with edging. Noticed neither did you folks. But off topic question. Will the Aussies make it to a semi-final in 2023 rugby world cup. :) from Springboks.
I've been using the 525LST with speed feed as my daily driver for mowing jobs for a year now. It feels mint and doesn't tax my arms. It feels so good at low and high revs. I'll be swapping to an Ego multi tool soon, I wonder how it'll compare. Also beware of carbon build-up in the exhaust port. If you favour low revs it'll fill up quicker than others.
How’s that ego comparing? If you didn’t buy it yet definitely go with the rear motor units like the power head you mentioned or the straight shaft rear motor
@@kelkev85 yep loving the Ego Multi tool for the last 5 months. I have only one negative and that is the stiffness of the throttle trigger. After an hour or two using it my fingers get tired. The new powerhead coming out soon will fix that. Should be in Aus in the next couple of months. Once I got my Ego gear the only Petrol machine I've grabbed for a job is my mower. On every other piece of equipment the Ego version is just objectively better for me.
Thoughts on Husqvarna petrol push mowers mate?, just purchased an entry level one and find it pretty underwhelming for the price. Lack of power and catcher hard to put on. I feel like a Victa from Bunnings for the same price would have been better value for money.
grouse video on the review of the Husqvarna aka Husky 525LST there Tim mate and yep she performs and cuts well to what your showing us and yep if it,s a good made in Sweden tool well your god all your good sounds covered including the musical band known as Abba and yep i say trim and edge to that one like their song Waterloo (1974) and yep the two somehow together make a good combination but yeah all good in culture on both ends i say etc.
I know that it’s a Shindaiwa but I don’t know what model of Shindaiwa it is. Can you please ask the person who was doing his edges what model of Shindaiwa it is and get back to me on that?
@@davidjaskiewicz3461 The difference is that the gear box ratio is different. Allows for higher torque in the cut so you can power thru heavier grass, and the drive shaft is apparently different too and more balanced I hear... Never used the first model so couldn't say definitely..
