Thanks. Keeping it as one line till the end was a great tip!
You bet!
Good job...Just got my new STIHL FS-70 and this video is a lot better than photo manual in 36 languages...Lol good Job
Manuals can be tough
The line kept breaking inside the head on my new fs70, was pretty frustrating and after the 3rd time I just grabbed my old Echo to finish the job. Thankfully I was testing the fs70 on my property before going to my clients properties. I will be replacing the 27-2 with the Echo Speed Feed head.
You made it look easy, and it was! Thanks for the video!!👍👍
You're welcome!
Great demo from Josh, Just bought a 27-2 in sunny Braintree in Essex, England.
Our pleasure. Enjoy
My 27-2 is no easier to open. As a matter of fact, it is harder to push buttons. Followed your directions and cannot get the reel to go in and string to lock into the exit opening
I feel ya
You’re pathetically weak there
I agree! I despise this head! It is hard to bend the line to get it to stay in the holes. I watched the other video about lining the 0.95 holes up but don’t feel like it is going to work. What does auto cut mean? I’m new to weed trimming. Going to get some new string and try not using as much string as Stihl or Ace did to load it like Josh shows in the video and see if it works better. I bought mine already assembled and the string just kept breaking.
Thanks. Stihl should add this to their website. They don't show the 27.2, and it's not in the manual!
Let’s work on that.
This was the most easiest i saw after i keep frustrating myself cutting the string first then rapping to put in the hole the string keep getting slack one day i just slam down everything THANKS VERY MUCH FOR YOUR HELP
Great job!
Thank you!
You're welcome!
I’m replacing this with an echo head asap
Asap
If that works best for you.
Another great tutorial mate
Thank you! Cheers!
Nailed it. Thank you.
You're very welcome
Have you seen the long life version of the 27-2? It has a steel bumper on the spool, no one seems to stock it.
We have one hanging on the wall at our shop
How can you add the string to both holes next to each other when it says 095 and 105 don't you have to match them in the right holes, I just bought the fs251r and it came with this head and the string would bust off in less than a minute with that cheap orange line that comes with it plus I had to drimel the sharp edge on the eyelet and put on some Rotary vortec 105 line and it cuts good now
We use the 095 and it works great.
do you know if that new spool with the metal bottom has been released yet and the sthil part # for it. my dealer in town says he has never heard of it and wants to sell me a junk head I don't want or need. i just need that spool you were talking about the heavy-duty one, if you had a sthil part # would be even better.
thank you so much
Yes it is available. Part # 4002 710 4321 around $20
@@carlsmowerandsaw thank you so so so much, i have a fs50 c and I swaped out the shaft from an old fs 81 just to get my old head back just because I want this spool and been waiting on it for then to release it now. again thank you.
Thanks for this video 👍
My pleasure
I’ve a lot of still equipment but there string trimmer heads are frustrating and don’t often work. I use echo brand no headache
What model are you using?
I bought a brand new FS 91R one month ago, have used it twice and both times it does nothing but break the string off in the head. I replaced it with an Echo Speed Feed...works great! Stihl needs to run their products before they put them in production! Shame on Stihl
If your dealer would have rewound the head with fresh line I suspect it would have worked flawlessly
@@carlsmowerandsaw to be fair, I'll give it a try! Thanks!
can you run .105 with this head?
I have ran 105 in it. I think it loads easier and feeds better with 095.
I just bought it. My line keeps breaking off inside the head. Happend like 6 times in my first 10 minutes of use. Any ideas why?
Replace the trimmer line with some fresh round stuff. Try that
buy an echo speed feed
it's because the string is brittle
@knightimusprime25 yeah I think that's right. I bought a brand new roll and soaked it in water for a few days. It helped but still was breaking. I got another roll of the Stihl premium orange and black string and haven't had a single break since.
@@shaunharrison9618 then ya need to soak it some more the longer ya soak it the better it'll get
Got the fs91r and hate it, it’s impossible to load, 45 mins use and I threw it into the street. I’m going echo speed load, Stihl sucks
Sometimes it takes a little bit to learn the dance. The Stihl head works great, we have thousands of satisfied users.
@@carlsmowerandsawit does work great and it’s durable, but echo speed feed head is life changing as a landscaper. It’s worth having to buy a couple a year to not have to string stihls head in 100 degrees
Where can I find a video on how to reload string in an FS 94 R weed eater? All I need is the video..Not anything else..Thanks.

@@carlsmowerandsaw Thank you..✌️
Coming from echo - this is the biggest fail ive seen in a long time. Head fails to feed, line breaks in head, remove head, respool. Ive never wasted this much time respooling and getting the trimmer to feed. I like stihl chainsaws but i will never buy another stihl trimmer after this. Worst design in a long time.
So run a speed feed on it
@@carlsmowerandsaw can you expand on that?
You can put a Speed Feed head on it if you like.
I totally disagree with this…as an avid Stihl products user…I believe Stihl surpasses all brands in every category since day 1…and I can base this solely off longevity…I’ve had and used a total of 3 Stihl straight shaft weed eaters…my family are loggers…the first one lasted around 16 years…(my cousin used it before me)…that finally blew up…bought another one…I used it atleast 8-10 years until my Grandparents divorced and gpops took it…that was back in 2007…we are on the 3rd one that was purchased maybe within the last 5-7 years…had an echo..lasted maybe 3 years…it vibrated heavily…nowhere near the power of Stihl…and weedeater heads are $30…😂…so I’m not sure the basis of this opinion…but opinions are like assholes…we all have them…some even stink…
@coriereynolds4145 it's just my experience with buying echo and stihl weedeaters. Ymmv - I don't think that invalidates my experience. Buying a premium product to immediately have to replace the head to function seems undesirable for most consumers.
Looks great, my new FS91 came with this head. It's supposed to auto feed? It's a terrible design IMO, on first attempt using I had to take apart 4 times and unspool the line, super frustrating to say the least on a brand new machine. Maybe it's the factory's fault or the dealer or whoever wound it? Also, the trimmer motor seems to bog like crazy, barely runs... Do I need to adjust something to allow it to rev up so I can get some work done? Feels like it's holding back from it's true potential. Not impressed at all. Very underpowered for a $500 machine IMO. So far my $99 25 cc black and decker had more balls than the FS91... When you hit the throttle on it instantly revs full speed. Only limitation is no bump head. I will say the FS91 seems to cut a lot better though when there is actually string and it finally revs up... Thank you.
The head rewound with proper line will work great. Have your dealer check the 91. It is a fairly powerful machine.
ill stick with the old tried and true 25-2 head
It’s a great head isn’t it.
@@carlsmowerandsaw yeah it is my new 91r I bought yesterday had the 27-2 on it and i had en to swap it out for the 25-2 head
