    Before these easy wind systems and before throttle lockouts and clutches to stop the head from spinning at idle speed, my parents had the best winding system. It was called the "you kids put this trimmer line on this here trimmer, the instructions are over there"

    I bought the yard gear max load to replace a POS head that came on my Craftsman. The new head held so much line, by the time I needed more, I forgot how I loaded it the first time! Had to go back to this video to remind myself. I've been real happy with it. No fuss.

    my stock trimmer head bumped and advanced line constantly with the slightest touch. so i bought a rhino head like this one. its a beast. easy install and trims super. what a difference. i can now trim without using a 100 feet of line. bumps when i make it. perfect.

    Do u use a spacer when installing on a Stihl trimmer like u do on the speedfeeds? Also can you only turn the bottom of the head to crank in the line or can you turn the top part of the head too in opposite direction to speed up the process?

    I have to do all the yard work by myself and trimming is the worst for me.. I purchased a trimmer plus straight shaft attachment. It uses the areo flex spool trimmer line but my florida grass and my lack of skills are eating away at the lines. I try and edge the driveway and pull back to see the areo flex all shot to heck and I have to change them out. I get around the ditch drains and the areo flex seems to just bend the grass instead of cut. I am only mentioning this to see if you have used it before and let you know I am returning it for the max load pro bump head for thirty as you suggested instead of the eighty I spent plus the lines. I need simplicity in my life at seven in the morning it is already eighty degrees outside so having the right equipment for me is essential.

      Joe Schwitters@ Yours is about the only sensible comment on here. My Honda bump feed has been on my UMK435 since new, 2012, and the bottom of the head is still shiny. Because I don’t bump feed it on concrete or asphalt. You’re standing on grass whilst you’re using it. It’s not as if you have to go looking for a GREEN patch. People trash their equipment then blame the manufacturer. Looking at the build up of crap on these 2 brushcutters, you can imagine the attention to detail he must take. I just roll my eyes at a lot of the TH-camrs.

    As you Yanks have different names for things, it sometimes gets a bit confusing as to what you are talking about!

Don't understand why so many people have trouble loading the head anyway, it's a piece of piss!

      Well we call them string trimmers.that is what they are called. Some say weed eater because of the old brand.then the head is a trimmer head.your country like all others have dif ways.but speed and ease of reloading is very important when you have tons of properties to do and especially working on hillsides all day.the oem heads slow down production.theu are easy to load but slow.especially when training new employees.
