Its actually off one of these cub cadet 4-stroke trimmers with the multi attachments. Bought it just to see how these were designed and of course needed to be repaired.
I personally would never want to own one to use because they are way too heavy. 2 stroke all day.
Lets see that FS410.I gotcha. IMHO the only 4 stroke trimmers any good are stihl and maybe dolmar. I don't have any experience with dolmar. I had a honda 4 stroke trimmer I bought used. It ran for 10 minutes before it lost compression ( I think a valve problem). And I still prefer 2 stroke. I have an ancient echo trimmer and it always starts on the first pull. Same with redmax trimmers even the newer ones. I have a like new stihl fs110 and it's good and a stihl fs280 that has a ton of power and dolmar trimmer the same size and the stihl. I also have a stihl fs410 but it is total overkill.

I will admit I prefer 2 stroke as well, but when using the brush blade the torque from the 4 stroke makes a world of difference. Dad's stihl 2 stroke with the same blade takes a lot more throttle to cut through brush than my old POS Ryobi 4 stroke, same goes for some of my attachments like my sickle bar pruner. For running the string trimmer head though and my leaf blower attachment head, the 2 strokes rpm's are still king.I gotcha. IMHO the only 4 stroke trimmers any good are stihl and maybe dolmar.
