  • Today I'm putting my new 18v string trimmer together and testing it out for the first time. I found this trimmer to be significantly heavier than the corded trimmer I was using until it broke a little while back. To be expected with the weight of the battery I guess. Overall though, I'm very happy with it! I was able to edge and trim around my entire yard with only the included battery.

    I make a small amount on purchases made through the links on my channel. Thank you for the support!

    Looks like they have changed the parts since your videos. Just got mine today, but assembly was quite easy except for the tubes. They have switched to 2 set screws . You have to loosen the screws before pushing the tubes together. The trimmer works great!

    Thank you. At 6 minutes is what I needed to know. The cover got flipped accidentally and I didn't know how to make it work again. Thank goodness for your video - and for YT, which is good for "how-to", horror shows and cute little animal videos.

    I should've watched this video *before* attempting the assembly. On my first try, I actually managed to attach the string guard and roller wheel in a weird way that made it practically impossible to use as an edger unless I stood on my head or otherwise contorted myself. I thought that maybe I had purchased a bizarre "left handed" version of the product. After watching your video, it all became clear and I was able to get it assembled properly with no trouble.

    Yes, the cutting off of 1/4 of the trimmer raises some questions. Once you have the guard lined up and put the screws in do you have to do anything with the string? Fit it in a slot? Pull it out a certain distance? And what about going from a 11” to 13”, what procedure do you?

      Thanks for watching! I've had a few comments that say the plastic protective cover assembly can be difficult and it's not shown very well in my video. The screws are a little hard to get started, but should go in if it's lined up correctly with the cutting head. Good luck with your build!

    Hi. I sure hope you might have an answer to my query... The instructions told me to removed the plastic wing bolt. Have no idea why, but I stupidly obeyed. Now it won't go back on. The bolt is simply way to short. As if the gripper that holds it on needs to be forcibly squeezed to make the sort bolt fit. My arthritic hands are incapable. Have no idea what to do now. My weeds are already 2 months overdue lol

    • @typicalthrill

      I've never seen that before, so I'm not sure what the fix would be. Does it feel like the foot switch is not unlocking or is something in the way of the movement?

    • @typicalthrill
      @typicalthrill  5 месяцев назад

      Hi, I'm not sure what you mean. To attach the string to the spool you loop it through the cutouts in the top of the spool. Hard to describe but fairly simple to do.

    I have one of these string trimmer/edgers and cannot get the guard attached. when you were showing us how to do it, the camera was on you not the work you were demonstrating. What's up with that? I needed to see how the guard snaps into place, not your tee shirt and or "wholly" jeans. WOT video

    • @typicalthrill

    • @typicalthrill
      @typicalthrill  2 года назад

      Yeah, I do kinda wish the feed amount could be adjusted. Every time you let go of the trigger, it feeds string. I tried out the cutter the other day, but I think I’m happier with the performance from the string.

      @@karolyn7817 Ah, gotcha. Sorry about that, I guess it was below the bottom of the frame. Mine lined up pretty well, but when you screw them in, you're actually threading the hole with the screw, so it can be a little tough to turn. As long as the little notch lines up, the screw holes should too.
