Trimmers

232R...Flawless for 10 years.

T35 trimmer head most of the time. I run a grass blade a few times a year, and a clearing saw blade in the fall to knock down the willows and brush that grew up along my creek banks over the summer.

@Four Paws ,

Is that sign on your back standard or homemade? Never seen that before.

Thanks!

A lot of the straps and harness come with those signs on them. The strap that came with the blade kit for Husqvarna's 3xx series trimmers has that sign on the strap.

I've had this for 20 + years and it still runs great. It runs 4 strings @ .130 dia line

That's an Echo re-badged for Craftsman, going by the 636 prefix on the Who Made This Craftsman Product lists I found on the net. And the label does mention Made in Japan.

I'm a little surprised that Sears sold such a heavy-duty brush cutter. But not that surprised since at one time Sears sold big chainsaws, Poulan 5200 and Homelite 550 come to mind, as Craftsman chainsaws.

I worked on a few of those when I was with Sears Service in the mid 1990's. Test ran 'em in the vacant lot next to our shop. Heavy, but had tons of torque.

Here's a pic of the trimmer head. It's Echo PN# 99944200220

I was thinking that a 041 super engine in an fs410 might be pretty stout. It apears that trimmer/brushcutter uses the regular 041 engine. Well 72cc's would be crazy but fun.

 

[Eccentric]

That'd be strong indeed. I've seen a few FS410's over the years. Man those are heavy bastards.

There is an australien fellow with a website who has a ~90ccm chinese brusch cutter! That must be a heavy bastard!

Not important. I have a weird sense of humor . Australian verses Austr-alien.

Never intended to start collecting trimmers too, but upon sitting them all in one place, that seems to be what happened.

Had this one since '93-94. Oly 260. Couldn't ask for a better trimmer. Replaced fuel lines once and the clutch once. Weekly runner even still. Wish I could find another one. (I did see a Jonsered version @ the scraper not long ago, but was very busted.dang!)

Seemed to have acquired a trio of Echo 200's over the years...DA, BE, & CE(run a brush blade on this one.)

Just got this one...

Pretty good runner after i cleaned the previous owners gas out of it... It was so dark with oil it looked like it was mixed 8-16:1. Trimmer doesn't smoke anymore though. Hehe. I like free!

Got a Stihl FS 85 at scrap yard for $10 but couldn't get a photo of it, is on bench taken apart at the moment for fuel lines and carb kit.

TAD in addition to CAD?
