    I filled my rear tires with -40F windshield wiper fluid, added 2 - 40lb wheel weights per side and I also put 5 - 42lb suitcase weights on rear weight bar off my 3pt. It will dang near push a house off its foundation now. Why windshield wiper fluid you might ask? Well there is no rim guard available in Alaska and -40F wiper fluid is the next best up here in the super cold temps.

    Thanks for doing this review. I usually use a string trimmer when my curbs need a trim. I do not hit them every week or when I cut the grass. They were getting a little out of hand and my neighbor who has a Stihl came over yesterday and did all my curbs and driveway. As much as I appreciated that, I like to maintain my own yard and I do keep it trimmed and cut every week or so and treat for weeds and such. I say all that so you understand my yard isn't unkempt (usually), we've had lots of rain lately so it's growing faster than normal. So I really want to edge it myself and this looks like a good buy that doesn't break the bank.

    I am sorry. The front tires may look nice (gives the impression of traction), but front tires need sideways traction for turning unlike drive tires. A better choice would have been a 4 rib or tri-rib tire on the front that wouldn't plug up with snow. I used single rib tires simply because we had them already mounted on a farm tractor a few times. I was amazed at how they cut to the base under the deep snow instead of plugging up and sliding. If you had 4 wheel drive, there would be some practicality to using traction tires on the front. I do think you made a good choice for the rears though. I plan on going that route on my 420.

    Nice video! I just bought this same saw a couple of days ago. It worked great for me. The 15ft claim I realized is that it assumes that you are 6ft tall and added to the 9ft tool length it gives you 15ft of reach off of the ground. I had to use a ladder to reach a lot of the limbs I need to cut. My only complaint is that the white plastic bar chain oil reservoir level indicator is useless. I can’t see anything through it. They should have made it clear. Other than that, it’s an awesome pole saw. The angled bar is a must!

      Thanks! I'm realizing some of things too. I've heard about the reservoir leaking oil. Not sure if that's true yet, but the other day I realized the reservoir was empty. So either it leaked in my truck bed or it uses a good amount of oil. So keep an eye on it for sure. I've also ran into a couple times where it didn't seem to cut to well at a reach. So the verdict is still out on it but it has been very useful for a couple of tasks I've been putting off due to lack of this type of tool.

    Thank you for the video. I have one that stopped loading the string. Now I know how to get in and clean it up.

      @tractorstrailsandlivingfree 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      You're welcome. Yes, mine doesn't load string very easily itself. I use the thicker 0.095 line and the spool only takes 6 feet or so of line.

    Uuugghhhh, it wouldn't budge. Aren't you ultimately torquing the shaft as you are turning the head itself?

    • @tractorstrailsandlivingfree
      @tractorstrailsandlivingfree 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yep, I'm only making the shaft stationary and spinning the head counterclockwise by hand. There is thread locker so it takes a little bit of elbow grease to break it free. Good luck

    • @smjohn4640
      @smjohn4640 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I want to make sure I'm doing this right. So the screwdriver is only making contact with the shaft and is in the slot of the shaft? Because I'm using WD-40, had it soaking for about 15 minutes in WD-40 and it won't budge. I'm ready to take a multitool to it and cut it off😮‍💨

      @@smjohn4640 you got it right but I found it essential to use that larger flathead when breaking it loose just to give you that extra leverage and resistance.

    Dude.. that is identical to the Kobalt 80V!.. Trying to get a cut string big boy head on it but not mess up the motor cooling fan part. I used an impact screwdriver tip, and busted two tips off! I see your shaft has marks like mine! Instant replay! You got it! I couldn't. Looks like I can cut the fan part off keeping the hole.. then figure out a spacer for the new cut line head. Thanks.. Kobalt and Atlas 80V trimmers are identical at least at the motor end.

      I didnt know that they were compatible so maybe most electric trimmer heads will be? Thanks for watching and commenting!

      Here is the video I did for the Speed Feed 400 on a Kobalt 80v. You do have to retap the threads on the Green or Gold adapter. I used a flat head adapter on a racket to get mine loose. I think you get a little more leverage that way. th-cam.com/video/6UEuwi7vSw0/w-d-xo.html

    Not a good idea to bang the bucket back and forth like that! I have been doing it for three years to the point where the pins in the bucket and ssqa no longer stay in! I'll either need to weld it to fix the ssqa or get a new one.

    • @tractorstrailsandlivingfree
