Great job! I've had the blade kit on a shelf for a couple of years because I'm always a little intimidated by something new like this. I'm going to watch your video one more time tomorrow and put it on. Thanks for providing these great instructions!
Ton better than the print “instructions “! Kudos to this young fellow for actually speaking well and doing hands on work. Lost art with the younger generation.
This is a great video! Even from three years ago, it is very relevant! I would like to mention though, with the SRM 225, the green spacer that you put on whatever trimmer you have is not needed and will cause the cotter pin not to be able to be inserted into the hole on the shank in the final step installing the blade.
WTH JUSTIN BIEBER IS DOING DIY’s. All jokes aside his knowledge and instructions are on point. Thank you Ryan. Do more instructional videos. Really simple and to the point.
With this video, I didn’t even have to look at the instructions! I’m glad I found the comments about the SMR 225 though. Definitely do not use the green washer on that model. You will not get the cotter pin on.
Thanks a million for making this video, man! Followed you to the letter today when I ditched the trimmer line in favor of the blade on my Echo 2620 and it worked out flawlessly.
Thanks for the video. It gave me enough information to know which pieces to use to install a brushing blade on my SRM-3020U. However, there was no green spacer, only 3 T-25 bolts and 3 nylock nuts that matched the protruding ends of the bolts, so I put them on there.
I just bought a SRM2620 and the blade conversion kit...but didn't come with the shaft locking tool like my last Echo had. Lucky I still have my old tool, I know I could use a screwdriver in a pinch.
curious what was the exact SRM model in this video? thanks I ask because I have a SRM 225 & did not use the green metal spacer. I was wondering if I messed up not using it. It seems if I use it the locking nut may cover the cotter pin hole
Have a 225 and did not use green washer as another person said. That small difference when using the green washer dosnt allow for room to add your cotter pin.
I have the SRM 225 and you definitely do not need the green washer. I was so glad that I found y’all’s comments regarding this or I would’ve put it together trying to figure out why I could not get the cotter pin in. Fortunately, I just took it right off, knowing what y’all had said in this thread, and it saved me some trouble!😊
Thanks! The Echo 80 tooth blade that I want to buy, has instructions saying the SRM 225 carburetor needs adjustment after installation of blade. I'm trying to find a video addressing that in particular. Anyone know about video for that. I'm just starting to look for one but haven't found success yet. Thanks
I didn't put in the green washer...does it need it....or can it do without? Saw another video where the instructor didn't mentioned to put it on or not.
There is more in that conversion kit than you showed. The components are model specific and perhaps you can tell what the SRM model number is that you used for the video. The kit comes with two locking collars and you have to measure the length of the drive spline to know which one to use.
Sorry I installed it. Everything is good washer everything. Blade doesn’t not want to move.. I’ve tried different parts. I tried one of the original parts. I have the 225
@@brianmichaelparks1 yes i figured it out. There is a small piece that i thought was trash and it was not. That part stops the nut from going too far down . It is like a tiny pipe or coupling called a COLLAR. Its brown. I'll find the name and let you know.
@@RavenWarehouseLotandServicehow/where did you install the collar because I’m having the issue where my blade doesn’t turn when I fully tighten the nut that holds the blade
@@RavenWarehouseLotandService awesome! I have everything in my car, boxed up and ready to return but I’ll give it a go tomorrow and see if that does the trick. Thanks for the response
I cant get the damn head off of mine. No matter what I use. A screw driver. Small prying bar. The damn thibg keeps spinning and won't allow me to remove the head
Check to see if the bolts on the guard are causing the shaft to stop. I had to remove the guard for that reason to get my blade to turn an I did have the spacer washer installed.

Visiting one of the Acme Outdoor Power Family stores sounds like a great idea for all my outdoor power equipment needs
Ryan makes the installation look so effortless, I feel confident trying it myself now
The variety of services and repairs offered at Acme Saw and Supply stores is impressive

Outstanding instructions! This made the process extremely easy as the instructions which came with product are not user friendly. THANK YOU!!!
Thanks for the detailed installation guide, Ryan from Placerville Polaris!
Folsom Lawn and Power seems like a reliable place to keep my Stihl, Echo, or Honda equipment in top shape
Way better than the instructions that came with the blade. Thank you!

Awesome job of description. I picked up quite a few important points. Once again, thanks.

I'm typically afraid I'll screw something up but this video is so good even I can do it. My SRM-225 is arriving 5/30/23.
Woot woot

Absolute perfect video. Thanks so much. You took all of the guess work out of it. Thanks. Stay safe.
Very well done! Completely understandable!!
I had no idea it was so easy to install the Echo Blade Kit on an Echo Trimmer
Thanks for the great video! You saved me a lot of time and frustration.
outstanding instructional video!! so appreciated
Excellent video. Thank you.
Good job ! I didn't know Justin Bieber knew how to service lawn equipment !
Man echo should pay you. I fought with this attachment for a hour. Watch the video and I was done in 15 mins 🎉🎊💪🏾🙏🏾
Some have a green washer, while other models use a spacer before putting on the locking collar
Great vid. Does this kit work with the SRM 320?
Need to be more with which elements used. Is the allen wrench included useable
curious what was the exact SRM model in this video? thanks I ask because I have a SRM 225 & did not use the green metal spacer. I was wondering if I messed up not using it. It seems if I use it the locking nut may cover the cotter pin hole

I ran into that problem as well I think I'd rather have the cotter pin as an additional guard for the blade flying off then the spacer

I don't get the "blade guard." extra handle thing. How is it suppose to work?
I didn't put in the green washer...does it need it....or can it do without?
Saw another video where the instructor didn't mentioned to put it on or not.

Hello man how to convert the echo 3 plastic blade trimmer to string trimmer?thanks
Very helpful. Thanks!!
Great! Many thanks!
What size reverse nut is that? Could i use echo edger blade nut? Same size nut? Ty
I need help! This vid is outdated now with my new echo. In my kit I was given a long neck upper and a short neck upper. Which to use?I have a PAS 225.
Measure the pto shaft. Mine was 42mm so I had to use the taller spacer (not the small green one) with the short neck upper.
Where can I find just the adapter plate???
Is there a part number for this kit? Thanks!
Nailed it
Best fucking video ever!! Thanks buddy
Excellent
Thx a lot, sir.
How do you resharp
Sorry I installed it. Everything is good washer everything. Blade doesn’t not want to move.. I’ve tried different parts. I tried one of the original parts. I have the 225
Sorry, the srm 230?
The torx are T-27s.
any help - followed instructions and my blade will not turn , and I checked the green washer is on
I ended up using the longer adapter and mine spun after that.
I also didn’t use the washer
If I want to install this without the safety how do I make sure it won’t fly out
Ofc i been using it with safety for a year but working with tall 2 feet grass it gets stuck far too much
Good job Sir !
Learn the mechanical trade
TY!!!
Does anyone know why the nut tightened, stopping blade from turning?
Same problem here
Did you figure it out?

i don't understand why they didn't make it to fit the existing hardware
Thanks
Thank you
I can’t get the head off of my string trommer
I cant get the damn head off of mine. No matter what I use. A screw driver. Small prying bar. The damn thibg keeps spinning and won't allow me to remove the head
Excellent video however my blade won’t spin for shit.

T27
No carburetor adjustment required?
