Everything you need to know about String Trimmer Line heads, in STU minutes! Join Stu as he discusses the most practical and popular kinds of Trimmer Line Heads. However, thats not it. We also discuss different sizes of line thickness, steps to replace lines, procedure to replace trimmer heads, and most importantly the myths surrounding the trimmer line head industry.
Specifically, we discuss two myths in this video. (1) The amount of line that could fit in speed feed line heads, and (2) the maximum thickness of line that STIHL Duro Cut 20.2 accommodates.
Trimmer Line Heads discussed in the Video:
- STIHL Auto Cut 25.2,
- STIHL Duro Cut 20.2,
- STIHL Auto Cut 26.2,
- Rotary Speed Feed Fast-Loading Trimmer Head
- Rotary Speed Feed Trimmer Head (smaller)
- STIHL Fix Cut 31.2
- STIHL Super Cut 20.2

Best way I've found is to grasp the line in each hand and press the "bump area" with your thumbs 👌 no damage to head and no marks in the ground 😊 Greetings from the UK 😊

In the mid 90's I bought a Stihl FS85 straight shaft trimmer with the 2 hand handle. He recommended the Supercut 20-2 head. Been running it ever since. I have a extra spool that I keep on hand and switch out as needed. I didn't know what I bought until this video. Good review of the popular heads on the market. (I still have the proper size rod to take the head off. Came with the unit when I bought it new)

I've got the same trimmer from the same time with the same head. :) What's bothering me is that lately the line advances much less often and erratically, which often leaves me with too short of a line to cut efficiently and I can't do anything to advance it. If anybody knows how to fix it, that would be great.

The product information with my Echo Speedfeed heads state: .095 - 20 feet; .105 - 10 feet. I did the same as you, woundup the string until the head tightened up. Don't know how much it took up (maybe just shy of 30ft), however, the line heated up and melted to itself. It's best to measure off 15-20 feet and call it a day. I found it works perfectly with those lengths and sizes.

Question, do all head units or mostly all come with those chromed "dog ears"? Those chromed like rings that are where u would feed the line through....
@ariip
@ariip Рік тому
The other interesting point about engineering is that the stihl has an issue when you are bumping. The stihl has the recesses and grabbing points on the face of the spool which means when you are bumping they are hitting the ground, the uneven surface and valleys on the head are going to hit uneven surfaces on the ground possibly and chisel away at the head and ground more causing more marks etc. Where the speed feed has a flat and smooth surface which will not grind at the ground and chisel when you are bumping. It uses the outside perimeter to grab to load which as you said, is easier at your fingertips. I guess Sthil was foresighted and did not think about the affects of bumping on the ground with an uneven head underside surface rather than just thinking about how you grab it to wind.

I have an fs 250, and use the 31.2 I have actually never seen the string being feed like that, and went and searched it. You are right in the way it is supposed to go. I am surprised that the Stihl dealer never said anything during the times it has been in the shop. They even replaced the head, and restringed it the same way. Now that I think about it, I believe most people here string it the same way. Tropical climate here, so a lot of people run the big stuff. So I will try to explain this. Cut two pieces 17 inches. Take one piece fold it in half put both ends through the slotted holes, then inside send the two ends out the bottom round holes, and repeat for the other side. This gives four exposed strings. The largest I go is .130, have done this way for years now. I definitely want to try the right method, and see what kind of difference it makes. Thanks for the informative video.

A word of advice for all people that are going to trimm their garden. Cut the entire yarn of line into 3 or 4 meter long pieces. That way you will save a lot of time and some nerves trying to unwind the yarn of line. It will be much quicker to spool the trimmer head that way.

@@mainstreetmower after about 20-25 years experience line doesn’t always come out and you have to open and refit the spool inside with the string line or the string line has melted and fused together which you mostly just need to detach and reset the line in the two grooves without having to re-spool the whole line.. Used different types of line standard Stihl line and aftermarket including twist which is my favourite,but only 2.4mm0.95, they say to sprinkle baby powder on it to reduce sticking together, I’ve had FS85, FS55 and the smaller FS45&38 which work great with the old tap head, hate the new style heads. Basic parts for 20-2 is eye lids $3 and $20 for cap replacement in Australia. I did buy a 30-2 head but yet to use will only run 2.7mm, might try 3.0mm just to see difference. I’m a Guard guy I hear every excuse under the sun why not to use a guard, usually I can’t see the edge, productivity but it’s usually because they can put the line out longer putting more stress on the machines. Contractors out there not using guards, they are opening up problems with warranty and even insurance claims when filming there action, plus giving other users bad habits that shouldn’t be promoted. Insurance companies love to not pay claims, if your a UKpostsr that’s no one ammunition to a insurance company. Hence the use of the Guard in your video today on all blades, personally have used a star blade no 3 they are great for high grass jobs. You can’t make an Industrial video about welding in thongs, though you have all the other safety equipment.

I used some really thick line on my 22cc trimmer. During use, I noticed that the line lasted much longer. But, the motor became really hot. It couldn't spin as fast. I could see that the line wasn't hitting the weeds as hard. Yeah that heavy line is great, but yir trimmer must have a lot of power .

You just sold me on that super cut 20.2 trimmer head. I despise bump feed heads because I'm always accidently bumping them when I don't want to.

Harry, on your Stihl FixCut 31.2 head it you ran the string through the elongated holes of the head. That doesn't appear correct. Shouldn't it be routed through the round holes so the string lays in the guide?
@andrepallai3406
@andrepallai3406 Рік тому
I use a replica version of the Fixcut head and I use it as you suggested Glen. So using two separate pieces of string I get the four protruding ends to work on the grass. Speedy work.. lightweight for the engine as well ;)

Hope you can help. I contacted Rotary Corp. on the suggested trimmer head for a Stihl Electric FSA90, their suggestion was the 9366. Is this different than the 13377 or 13375. I requested more info from Rotary but no response. Excellent video.
@mainstreetmower
@mainstreetmower 9 місяців тому
Definitely go with a 13375, there is a green adaptor in the package that will make it go right on your trimmer. I don’t think the 9366 would work at all

What is the best trimmer head for sthil 460 brush cutter.
@nsf96791
@nsf96791 Місяць тому
The fix cut trimmer head using a .155 heavy line for thick brush cutting is a bit troublesome to load BUT it cuts thick bruch well and last a while. My problem is to get the line to bend evenly while you thread the line through the holes. How can you get the correct bend on the line? When I get it close to the correct bend, the bend will protrude out a bit and shorten the cutting line from both sides.....Anyone with some suggestions?

Question please: I have a Ryobi gas straight shaft trimmer. The bump heads are crap. The "Reel Easy" is easy but the bump knob is so thick that I can't cut down to the ground unless I go at an angle. Will the Stihl 25.2 or work with my Ryobi? Thank you for your time.
@mainstreetmower
@mainstreetmower 2 роки тому
Unfortunately not, I know this isn’t what you want to hear but I promise you will thank me for years to come. Sell your Ryobi, maybe return it if you still can and go buy a Stihl FS56RCE for $219.95. It is made in Virginia, has a great warranty/ support, it will never leak gas or let you down for the next 15 years (at least). And all the heads in this video will fit on it. Everyone I’ve ever talked to who has made the switch only has one regret and that is that they didn’t do it sooner. It will literally take all the drudgery out of your stringtrimming life for good.
@craighellberg4366
@craighellberg4366 2 роки тому
@@mainstreetmower I am going to take your advice. I will also get the 25.2 head. I like the bump better than the auto feed. I was going to get an Echo trimmer, but the new ones don't have the best reviews. And it's nice to know the Stihl is made in Virginia. Thank you so much!

Re-hydrate old trimmer nylon by dropping the spool in a bucket of water (not the trimmer head) for a day or two. Even line that's new but been on the shelf for years can dry out...
