I can’t begin to thank you for creating this video. I have a Dewalt 20 Volt string trimmer and it took 4.23 minutes to replace the pathetic Dewalt head with the T35 Husqvana head. So very easy. Thanks again.
Thank you for saving my day!! I deliberately avoid trimming my lawn because my DeWalt 40v trimmer keeps eating string. This new head from Echo (which you referenced) has made my lawn trimming a less stressful task.
Thank you for your video. I purchased the Echo Speed Feed from Amazon for my own Christmas present!. Most of the reviews posted stated you could NOT use the Speed Feed with a DeWalt 20v trimmer. I searched the Echo website and could not find the DeWalt brand listed so I was ready to return it and go back the original OEM head. Then I came across your video and saw you contracted those reviews so I gave it a try. Wow, the entire process took no more than 10 minutes. It worked!
I was going nuts trying to find DeWalt replacement parts ( my head was taken apart at some point and I lost the head cap) but seeing this makes life soooo much easier knowing its a pretty simple fix. Thanks A LOT . :)
The head that came with my DeWalt was crap. It kept jamming. Your video showed me how to replace it with another head that works great. I didn't know how to lock the head. Thanks!!!!
Holy smokes, man! I’m so grateful for this tutorial!! I have to replace the string in my Dewalt, and I couldn’t figure out how to get the whole cap off. Thank you so much 👊
Woo ooh🤗being a woman girly girl I do my yard and moms, wondered why my 60v kept being used to quick, making it hard to just do the yard without stopping. Your video was great, I celebrated when I took the top off, at once per your link, thank you, I ordered the Husqvarna head, will replace it and next week, get to work🏋🏾♀️just want to thank you for explaining it so a woman can follow and do it successfully. My dad would be proud and laugh at me🙏🏽God bless I’m following youuuuuu now
Great video! My original Dewalt head did not want to feed the line and it was a pain to load string into. Great weed eater just a bad head. Love the replacement!
Our 60V head jammed up the last time we used it, and that was the last straw. I am actually going with a plastic blade head so that I can clear some brush. Then I will probably get the one your suggested in your video. But you definitely make it very clear how to take the old one off. The manual was terrible for those instructions. Thanks for your very clear help!!!!!
Thanks for the video. I will upgrade the weed-eater head (that's what I call it too) on my 20 Volt model to save major headaches restringing the original one. I stopped using it because I could never get it right. Just seemed to tangle up inside.
Thanks for the video. After watching I went out and bought a T35 and put it onto my Dewalt. It seems to work fine and none too soon! I have three trimming jobs tomorrow.
Thanks for posting this! My DeWALT 20V trimmer was vibrating like crazy the other day because one of the spools ran out of string. I was looking for DeWALT string but instead I'm going to upgrade to the Echo Speedfeed 400 or Husqvarna T35. Thanks!
UPDATE: Installed and the trimmer definitely runs WAY smoother. I did find it quite difficult removing the entire head by itself and ended up undoing all the bolts/washers which in the end was way easier. Thanks again!
I did this with my DeWalt 20v string trimmer and have never looked toward putting that original one back on in the least. They work great and are so much easier to fool with than the DeWalt head was. They are also a heck of a lot cheaper on the wallet to purchase, too, besides having actual spare caps which can be ordered, as well, unlike the DeWalt original head.
@@douglaswatters7303 Ever wonder why no one invites you to their parties? It's because you're boring. You don't have to wonder anymore. Just have to get a personality. See if you can borrow one from a friend. Oops! That's another problem. What friends?
Thank you very much. I was getting a bit frustrated with mine never wanting to feed. Mine came with the head showed at 1:23 and it doesn't work very well.
Thanks for making this video. I do owns a Dewalt 60 v Flex Volt and this video is great for me. I wish you had added how to reload the string because most people online seems to not too sure about what to do. I too even had trouble knowing before I played around with the machine and fingered.
Excellent video. That's what I was looking for. I order the same T35 . I'm trying to upgrade my 20V Dewalt trimmer. I also have seen in an earlier comments, that this trimmers have problems with motors , and one of the suggestions was to cover the motor with a piece of pantyhose/tighs with rubber bent Keeps inside and outside of the motor clean.
Thank you! I was about to replace my head because the 0.09 DeWalt line had melted and the part in the center was plugged in the center winder. Anyhow, once I got the head off (thanks to your video) I was able to take it apart and salvage the original echo speed feed like head. Thanks again.
The Hole where you Inserted the screwdriver has gotten grass stuck in there 2x to both my 20v dewalt WEED-EATERS..making them not rotate , I will try this & try to take a look if I can get a closer look to pull it out & get them both working!!
Mine has the new DeWalt head and it's trash. I re-fed the wire three times yesterday in 30 minutes. Bumping the head caused it to suck the line in instead of feed. Anyway, Thanks! Ordering that new head!
Thanks for the info. Just changed my head out yesterday. FYI - The standard T35 head works and was cheaper than the universal (in Canada anyway - less than half the price).
This was very helpful. My head broke in the middle of doing my ditch.. My local hardware store had stihl heads and it screwed right on. Will be a big improvement over the dewalt style
Can I put a bushwhacker head on this trimmer? I have the original flex volt that doesn’t allow for attachments but I want to cut heavy duty or possibly edge with it. Any advice?
I have a 40V DeWalt, for 4 years now and it's almost umpossible to get the spool off, clearing that white nub from the window in the side. After fighting that for 10 minutes then I have to get some heavy duty scissors to slide under edge to pop off. Broke or bent several because it's that tough.. It's not the flex volt model. Wondering if the T35 will work on my model.
Have the 20v came with dewalt speed head had lot of trouble with it go the echo 400 easy installation thanks to your video didn't need spacer but I have the same troubles either the echo jamming and not feeding maybe its the way I'm bumping I'm really tired of taking it apart it came with .95 line yesterday I changed to .080 line hoping that will work
Been reading a lot about this don't seem to be the only 1 with problems some say line gets brittle and breaks try soaking line in water some say a little silicone helps the echo came pre loaded maybe old line ? Question when you bump how much line is supposed to feed thanx
The old head was a bit difficult to wind line. If you didn't use it much and had to wind the line for the first few time you would think it's extremely difficult since you have to pretty much make a crimp on one end then start winding, without unwinding the other. If you winded the line a lot, you would be use to it. Also mine some how got damaged and string started breaking at the eyelet. The NEW one has a larger and smoother eyelet which is better for larger like like .095, and also winding the line is significantly easier, and you can wind one long line, instead of two smaller lines. When the bumper wears out on the new head, you can also easily just replace the bumper instead of the whole head unlike the original head.
I will upgrade my Dewalt 60v trimmer with H.T35. My only concern is does it affect the motor because it looks a bit bigger and heavier than original Dewalt spool?
Thank you so much for clarifying that the newer models (dcst970x1s) comes with the new head. I was wondering why all of these TH-cam videos were showing a different head mechanism...
rmul86, I didn't realize the difference between dcst970x1 and dcst970x1s until too late. Does your Dewalt dcst970x1s owner's manual have a parts list that lists the guard assembly or guard parts numbers that you'd be willing to share or divulge? Same with the spool part number for dcst970x1s, if you're willing. Thanks for any assistance you're willing to provide (since I can't locate some of this parts info for dcst970x1s, but can for dcst970x1)
Have you tried replacing with a fixed head? I had a cub cadet that i would cut the line and manually feed and was a heck of a lot easier than feeding the bump head
I am not 100% certain, since I do not own the newer dewalt trimmer, but from close looks in store, it does appear it would work with the newer models. I am about 90% confident it would.
Have a 20v weed trimmer like yours, would you recommend this head over the the quick reel that Dewalt offers now?? Amazon has the quick reel for $115 seems pricey that's Canadian. Was hoping the one you showed was a quick reel or does Husqvarna offer such a unit??
Anthony Macneil the Husqvarna head you still have to wind the line around the string holder. It is much easier than most people think or are afraid of. I would prefer this Husqvarna head over the speed feed head, as it seems more durable and better built. The t35 head and the echo speed feed heads are widely used by professionals landscapers in my area. Yeah $115 is a bit too pricey for a head replacement.
@@4thewinak Will the Echo speed feed universal fit model 99944200907 work on a Dewalt weed trimmer? Thank you for your reply it helps having knowledge great video
I can't say for sure, since i don't have it, but it looks like it would. You should get a head that is as close to your OEM head as possible. I would think the smaller one would be better since 20v is less powered than the flexvolt trimmer. It will allow for higher head speed and quicker ramp up!
I just bought the Dewalt 20V 14” trimmer about a month ago. The string isn’t to hard to load, but trying to get it to come out by hand is another thing. I’ve had three spool cap covers break in this short amount of time. They only sale the spool and not the cap cover which is BS. Then the rubber on my handle is already breaking away and the button control piece at the top is cracking along with the rubber over it. This is model DCST922B. I am really pissed off with this trimmer. I cannot and will not recommend it. When I first used it I was happy, but now I’m pissed. Lots of money wasted on batteries and chargers too. Try it at your own risk, but you have been warned👍😂. One more thing it shuts down after a short time in use then starts right back up. I also bought two new Stihl weed eaters and their bump system really sucks. Going back to Husqvarna next time using fuel. Screw these battery ones👍
Great instructions. I also have the 20V De Walt trimmer and that Quickload feed head is really not worth it. I notice there are more expensive universal Husqvarna T35 replacement heads and some non universal on Amazon. Since you indicated you didn't need all those adapters, can I assume the non universal T35 will work on my DeWalt DCST920 Type 4?
Gonna try this on my DCST920 with the new head (which likes to jam and stop feeding). You said the T-25 is the one for the 20volt, correct? Has anyone tried the smaller one? TIA
You do realize that is a reverse thread. I have Not seen any that are not as the head would fly off. Unless it spins the opposite direction. But thank you for the video. I am thinking of of buying one of these to chop it up and mounting the power head on the edge of my mower deck, being the brushless motor is on top of the head it would be easy to do.. Then putting the rest of it under the seat of my Zero turn and running a throttle cable to a thumb switch on one of my steering arms. Then I could just press the thumb throttle to turn it on and trim along my house and trees as I mow. I have a bunch of 20 volt max tools so the charger and battery could be useful for them as well. But I do not want to put a bump stock head onit. Instead I want a pivot pro head that holds 4 pieces of string doubled over and they are mounted so they can pivot so they swing out of the way when up against something and the string last forever without it breaking or having to replace it. I have used these types of heads before and I was real skeptical but they work rather well. I think they will fit as they are universal and come with many mounting options.
loading the line is significantly better than the original head. Because it's easier also saves time when loading line, and if you're using it a lot, you save a lot of time. Also because of the design in my situation it gets caught less vines and wires.
4thewin I have the new dewalt 60 volt trimmer but it seems to vibrate in hands a lot. I wonder if this head you mention would reduce vibrations to hands?
I wanted something light weight and capable of cutting. This little string trimmer is just that th-cam.com/users/postUgkx_rBCFuDW1zD6blTGhLkvAkxU657uR_lG . The battery will last about half an hour. It cuts through most weeds and grass. I wanted to see what this trimmer could do and tried cutting down some brush. It does okay with light brush but heavy brush, not so much. This is a great tool for trimming around the yard. It's not great for clearing out brush but no one would expect it to be.Out of the box, this trimmer is extremely easy to use. All I had to do was attach the guard and load the battery.
I can’t begin to thank you for creating this video. I have a Dewalt 20 Volt string trimmer and it took 4.23 minutes to replace the pathetic Dewalt head with the T35 Husqvana head. So very easy. Thanks again.

hmm, not sure i can relate. i haven't experienced that issue. let us know if the smaller line helped.
Been reading a lot about this don't seem to be the only 1 with problems some say line gets brittle and breaks try soaking line in water some say a little silicone helps the echo came pre loaded maybe old line ? Question when you bump how much line is supposed to feed thanx
There is a big metal washer/spacer and a black plastic washer/spacer that comes in the kit. Should we use those parts?
Thank You!
that sounds better too. much smoother. are those heads disposable. or do you refill them when the string runs out ?
refill when the string runs out. which is much easier than the previous OEM head.
I hope this doesn't sound stupid but is one those head that you tap and it self feeds?
hwjr1 yes. The t35 head is a bump feed head. When you bump the head on the ground the blue part feeds the line.
I know that that old Dewalt head sucks and I hate it but what makes the other once better?
The old head was a bit difficult to wind line. If you didn't use it much and had to wind the line for the first few time you would think it's extremely difficult since you have to pretty much make a crimp on one end then start winding, without unwinding the other.

you only have to lightly hand tighten it. that's why it's reverse threaded, it tightens itself.
I recommend to only tightening lightly. the rotation of the trimmer will finish it for yu.
probably better advice. some heads will fly off when the trimmer brakes hard.
So can i switch the ryobi head trimmer to husqvarna t25 or 135
You don’t have to turn it on real tight. It’s designed to self tighten,that’s why they use a left handed thread.
Thank you very helpful..
great!
Great instructions. I also have the 20V De Walt trimmer and that Quickload feed head is really not worth it. I notice there are more expensive universal Husqvarna T35 replacement heads and some non universal on Amazon. Since you indicated you didn't need all those adapters, can I assume the non universal T35 will work on my DeWalt DCST920 Type 4?
I have the same question but mine is a DCST970. Did you end up getting the non-universal t-35 and did it work?
Good information bro
Useful video...thanks!
Thank you
Gonna try this on my DCST920 with the new head (which likes to jam and stop feeding). You said the T-25 is the one for the 20volt, correct? Has anyone tried the smaller one? TIA
I use the smaller head on the Makita string trimmer. It should work fine, allows it to spin faster, but has less mass in motion
You're the man!
Dewalt just discontinued the 40V Max line. :(
I know. but probably didn't make much sense for them to keep it.
Because it’s inferior. Backward compatibility is huge!

Then I could just press the thumb throttle to turn it on and trim along my house and trees as I mow. I have a bunch of 20 volt max tools so the charger and battery could be useful for them as well. But I do not want to put a bump stock head onit. Instead I want a pivot pro head that holds 4 pieces of string doubled over and they are mounted so they can pivot so they swing out of the way when up against something and the string last forever without it breaking or having to replace it. I have used these types of heads before and I was real skeptical but they work rather well. I think they will fit as they are universal and come with many mounting options.
Hi handsome, thanks for the video
Thank you brother!
My pleasure!
I have dewalt DCM561PBS can anyone tell me if this will fit please?
What are the benefits of this head?
loading the line is significantly better than the original head. Because it's easier also saves time when loading line, and if you're using it a lot, you save a lot of time. Also because of the design in my situation it gets caught less vines and wires.
4thewin I have the new dewalt 60 volt trimmer but it seems to vibrate in hands a lot. I wonder if this head you mention would reduce vibrations to hands?
You need to replace the eylets on the head, they are a wear item..
Someone in a review said supposedly you can’t replace the dewalt 60 volt weed trimmer head/.
C c well as you can see you can’t believe everything you see on TH-cam.
4thewin unless you’re a magician perhaps
THANK YOU!!!!!
Weed Eater is a brand name that is used as a generic name, Xerox/photocopy, Kleenex/tissue, etc.
Lit!
Smart people call it a weed eater or weed whacker
Weed Eater is a brand name, sort of like Kleenex vs tissue.
Love the vid man but what the ending =))
I wanted something light weight and capable of cutting. This little string trimmer is just that th-cam.com/users/postUgkx_rBCFuDW1zD6blTGhLkvAkxU657uR_lG . The battery will last about half an hour. It cuts through most weeds and grass. I wanted to see what this trimmer could do and tried cutting down some brush. It does okay with light brush but heavy brush, not so much. This is a great tool for trimming around the yard. It's not great for clearing out brush but no one would expect it to be.Out of the box, this trimmer is extremely easy to use. All I had to do was attach the guard and load the battery.
It is called whipper snipper not weed eater.
interesting. never heard of that one before
Nope. Its called a weed whacker. Lol thats what we called them and a weed eaters.
