My DR was delivered assembled, no cost. The manual recommends soaking the cord first. I had to add more cord and used the .175 blue twisted, and it was tough to get in. Mainly because the "holes" had dirt in them. Soaking the cord did it. I had to grip the cord with pliers to push it in to get started. Once I was able to grab the cord and pull, all was fine. I didn't try the Green .095 cord which might have been a tad easier. Like I said, once in the hole and you can grab, it was just fine. I love the trimmer! After not being used for from September to the end of June, it started right up. I too use non-Ethanal gas as I do for my ICE car; Ethanol damages rubber components.
Use Mobile One at the 2nd oil change on all engines, but not the first. The reason is that with all new engines, the initial oil will contain metal shavings, so use the average oil, run it for awhile with the average oil, get the engine broken in, and then use the Mobile One.
the instructions for installing the strings is backwards,, install both strings in the middle then one will come out each side and you will have 4 strings showing each one at 90 degrees, just like their new high priced accessories.. the four strings are at 90 degrees to each other so you get 4 shots at each weed and it m throws the debris away faster, try it.. much better than 2 sets of 2
@@ticketyboo43 wow that’s amazing to know thanks for sharing this information!! really appreciate it and thanks for subscribing to the channel 👍thanks again
I appreciate you putting the work in for me! Lol I got that big box sitting in the middle of my kitchen! Now I know how to put it together! Thanks for sharing. :)
Just pulled mine out of the box and found this video to watch. It was very good but none of my machines get anything but Non Ethanol fuel and that way they all start in the Spring after sitting all winter. Thanks for the Assembly and also Subscribed/
They gave you oil? They made me buy mine separately. :( Did you soak your strings for 3 days in water, as recommended? I'm guessing, no. I heard a tip to soak them in boiling water for a day prior works just as well. I'm putting my trimmer together now. How long does a tank of gas last?

Did you soak the cord in water for three days? Did you read the instructions?
How long is the wire? 18 or 24inches?
i believe that the wire is 24 inches
@@inthewoodswiththecapones thank you. I guessed 24 and it worked great. Keep up the great videos!
mine wont hold any larger than .130 line
Forgot washers on the wheels! Did you read the instructions?
You only need the washers if you have the SP one.
Why didn't you just buy a weed wacker. You are cutting grass
