    Stihl Ms250 vs echo cs 490

    Feom what I seen the ms250 is 10.1 lbs and the 490 is 10.6 I'm not sure if that's weighed with bars on or not probably just the power head then it's 18 vs 20 inch

    Husqvarna 322l reviews?

    My echo felt a lot higher quality and is actually slightly cheaper but weighs 12.1 pounds instead of the husky 9.9 Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using Tapatalk

    New poulan pro hedge trimmer just stalled and locked up

    Funny part is I owned both of those as well and prefer the poulan I had my first one was great had for 3 years before I sold when I needed money. My stihl gave me lots of carb problems. The echo was just too heavy to use for more then 5 mins at a time.

    New poulan pro hedge trimmer just stalled and locked up

    What's funny the manual states never run full throttle and if so no more then 30 seconds. It also says use the minimum throttle you can while getting a smooth cut still

    Do you use starton or seafoam?

    Thing is about full throttle it says right in the manual always use the very least throttle you can while still cutting and also says never do full throttle for more then 30 seconds. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using Tapatalk
