Thank You SO MUCH!!!! I have the generic Chinese speed feed 450 and I used a lock nut and a 3/4" bolt along with the fender and flat washers. It works perfectly!!! Thank you so much for this, you're a blessing!!!
Ok but I still don’t understand what it’s for why put the bolt threw the head is there some sorta advantage to it what’s bullet proof about it. I like the speed feed 400 for the weight I run my string trimmer all day I like to trim I let my employees ride the machines I don’t like sitting down all day.
Basically, the bolt will make the cap last almost indefinitely. When you tap it on the concrete, it hits the bolt instead of the plastic. I’ve never had to replace a cap since I’ve put bolts in all mine the wait is negligible it’s a few grams.
Hi great video. Great $saving tip. In return I would like to suggest a digital currency to make multi generational wealth: buy XRP, XDC, XLM. GOD BLESS YOU.

I am going to order a cheap one also. Where did u get it?
Great video great idea always wearing out bump and feed with still 25-2 auto decided to echo feed speed and bullet proofing looks really good
Thanks for making the video! You helped me! Take care!
Excellent fix!!
Thanks for the video. I’m gonna try that with mine
Brother! Thank you. That will definitely solve the main problem, especially when you have idiot workers who DON'T LISTEN and slam it down on concrete.
This is a good idea. Going to wait til I have a hole in mine than do it to it.
Great work mate
Bullet proofed a 400 off this vid……Thank you!👏🏻🇺🇸👏🏻
I'm going to do this and I'll be using Loctite Red making it magnum bullet proof! haha
Does the 500 load a different direction?
Always preferred the 400 over the 450. I liked that the 500 was a little taller than the 450. Same height as 400?
Russell, you like the speed head ? (On the Echo and Shindawa)
easy to re-load trimmer line ?
It’s an excellent trimmer head.
throw some locktite on it too

@@GwinnettLawns ah ok I get it what about the eyelets wearing out though usually my eyelets wear out before my cap does.
@@Justthemow i’ve never had eyelets wear through. What type of line do you use?
@@GwinnettLawns shindawa super twist
A carriage bolt works better. Every thing else stays the same....
Just eat adds 😢
