    Thank you so very much. Your tutorials are easy to follow. I am a recently widowed 60+ and my dear late husbands stihl petrol tools were to heavy. So I have started purchasing battery powered RYOBI tools to carry on maintaining our lovely yard he created. I am loving it. Honouring him.🙂

      I'm in the same position and I'm also replacing all the petrol tools with Ryobi battery powered tools that I can actually manage. This is the best tutorial to explain whipper snippering I've seen. Looking forward to trying all the tips so I might actually be able to do it.

    FINALLY!! I've been looking for a video on this for years. For decades I've had trouble with the upside down edge trimming breaking off the line inside the head - finally a decent explanation what's happening. Thanks so much for the advice, I can't wait to try this weekend! Best line trimming video on YT!

    Omg. Thank you so much. I can’t believe how many videos I have watched on weed eaters and I finally learned the easiest way to string my POS trimmer. I ruined my extension cord today, so will have to try it out as soon as I go and replace it. Considering just getting a battery operated one at this point.

    Thanks Tim, great video. Everyone is an expert until they see your vid ! I'm only 72 but learnt so much. I have a Ryobi trimmer but it's a two-stroke. Love it. I bought it maybe 6 years ago. I finally found out what that circular piece of yellow plastic with the handle that came with it is for ... it's to wind on the bloody plastic line !! Just as well I didn't throw it away ! It was always a pain winding the line before now it will be so much easier. Anway, well done Tim, you now have a new subscriber.

  • @annaprigliano221

    I have the 20 volt Ryobi trimmer and now I know how to replace the string without taking it apart. Thank you for all your tips. It is great information and I love watching you work. Next you need to video: tips on edger's so I can see what I'm doing wrong there LOL. Thanks again.

  • @karenheartoriginal3783

    After years of frustration with the old style line trimmers bought the same Ryobi line trimmer as in this video and also the Ryobi lawn edger. Edger had the 4.0mah battery and chargers, trimmer was skin only. Cannot believe after 3/4 hour trimming have not had to touch the line. The old school ones I had here you’d be lucky to get a few feet done before stopping to re feed line. Thanks for your tips about using tip of the line.

  • @SuperBonefinger
    @SuperBonefinger 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    Very helpful and informative. I had trouble threading the line and also never knew that the edger can be used vertical like that. Now my edges look great!

    Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! My FIL has that and we had to put it together for him. My co-worker insists that we get one that's gas powered instead of Battery, but I'm not comfortable storing gas at home; neither is my husband. Thank you for explaining how to change out the line - others do it so fast that I don't see it very well. And not all workers are helpful.

      @mini_steve 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I have also have a Ryobi 2 stroke line trimmer (7-8 years now) and mine always starts easily with 4 to 6 pulls cold.
      Once or twice a year it takes about 3 million, that's when I think I should go battery. But my yards far too big regarding battery run time.

    Like @painetdldy I love watching you do your "trimmer two-step". It's hypnotic. I live in a unit under strata so there is no logical reason for me to watch this video, but I did anyway, and got my Tim's two-step fix as bonus 😁

    Thanks for a really detailed video mate.
    I’ve downsized properties over the years, and keeping my 2stroke line trimmer serviced etc has become a pain, especially as my mower is 4 stroke, so I’ve got to keep different fuels as well… Will definitely look at the ryobi as a replacement option now. I always keep on top of my edges, so certainly don’t need commercial-type power.
    Good stuff, and yes, yes, yes on eye protection, every. single. time!!!

    • @Beer_Dad1975
      @Beer_Dad1975 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      My old 2 stroke needed the carb rebuilding last year, like you my mower is 4 stroke - and moved to an electric chainsaw some years ago when I melted the piston on my 2 stroke - so I thought "f*ck this, I'm going full electric" - after doing some research I decided the 18v Ryobi, same model he uses here, would do for me (I already have a huge pile of Ryobi stuff so just needed the skin) - no regrets, it's a great tool for my property (around 800 sq. meters but mostly taken up with pool and deck - all of which needs edging regularly though) - anyway I would say go for it, it's a very capable and great quality tool for the price.

    Hi, I am in my late 60s I had a lot of difficulty using mine, mainly because its has an extension cord. I do agree it requires muscle . My advice to any buyer is watch this channel first and get it right the first time. Well done for the coverage. I am now better equipped to at least thread the spool correctly.
