Thank you. Very clear. The Ego company should have made videos on specific product topics, but they didn't. They should pay you for your services. Bumping our Rapid Reload Head didn't work, so we'll look to see if you have a video on that subject. (Perhaps our line is jammed. Will find out in a few minutes after we've opened the head according to your instructions.)

I'm watching these trying to find the easiest one to buy but from the comments here I don't think this is it even though you made it look easy. I need to replace my corded one which was a Sears brand and had precut strings to put in one by one, when it gets short you pop another one in. It was wonderful, why doesn't anyone else offer this. Thanks for the video.

@AroundTheHome1

Жыл бұрын

@JanW thanks for you comment / question. The precut strings may be easy to load, but they are not efficient. Not much string there so you have to change it out frequently. You have to know that when you see comments of people having trouble loading the string, that is a small percentage of people that are enjoying this system very much. This is truly one of the simplest and quickest loading systems available. Once my kids were shown how, they now load it themselves.

I so needed to find this video....thank you so much

Thanks for the clear instructions - really helps a new user. On another note, am I the only one who hates that the string is 2 inches from the bottom of the head? I just got this trimmer (sta1500 that came with the power head with interchangeable tools), and it seems awkward to use compared to my gas trimmer where the string is closer to the bottom. Maybe I'm just not used to it but it seems like you have to tilt excessively to cut low.

I’ve had my ego trimmer with this speed load head for a little over a month and have been disappointed. The bump feed always jams with 6-8 ft of line still on the spool. It even jammed with the line that came with the new trimmer. I’ve had to replace the line 3 times even though I only trim every other mow, maybe twice a month. I’ll call customer support but unless they redesign the head I’m not sure what they can/will do. Very disappointing because I love the ego mower I just bought.

That's not a problem I have encountered with either of my 2 EGO trimmers, not my daughter whom I bought one for as well. What line are you using?

Thanks for this. I like my ST-1500’s cutting performance but the process of replacing the line tests my patience each time. It’s way too hard to get the plastic tabs to release; good to see that I’m not the only one that had to resort to a flat-blade screwdriver. On top of that, Ego included the wrong instruction manual with my trimmer. Only after watching your video was it clear that I should wind the line in a clockwise direction (the manual show counter-clockwise).
