    I, living in Korea on the opposite side of the Earth, often search for this channel to see if Sparky Grandpa is doing well. I first discovered it several years ago when I was looking for reviews on grass trimmers. I'm glad to see that you've surpassed 200,000 subscribers and are still actively uploading videos these days.

    @Sparky Channel. Wow Bill. I'll have to look for those arrows on the bump head of my Echo. I just look down one of the holes where the line comes out to look for daylight when I have the openings lined up. Thanks for showing how to change out the head or do maintenance on the head.
    Hope you and your family stay safe and well.

    • @SparkyChannel

      Looking for daylight to see that the eyelets are aligned works just as well. The arrows get beat up pretty well after some time but they are there if you look closely. You stay safe as well, thanks!

      @SeanCMonahan 3 года назад

      Hello, distant relative, and thanks for such a quick reply! The issue with mine is that, without the locking collar/ring, I can't get the head off to install a replacement 🙃. I need a super, duper skinny set of pliers with a round, serrated gripping surface, or some other way of holding the drive shaft in place. Needle nose pliers don't have the right shape to grab the shaft, and none of my regular pliers are skinny enough to fit the gap.

      In general, I find these speed heads frustrating. When you tap to release more line, it seems loops inside the head get a bit unraveled and sometimes trap the line. Next time you try to get more line out, it is jammed.
