Echo WT 1610 Walk Behind Trimmer( First try out)

Hey folks, I can't believe it's Sunday already. In today's video, I will be trying out my new walk-behind trimmer and telling you what I think so far. I have a few rough areas that I like to keep trimmed. Is my new trimmer up to the task? Let's find out.

The Slasher! That thing does pretty good, I’m impressed. Logan is a good guy, he is a great Dad as well. You can tell his kids are crazy about him.

Hey Ben, It seems to work well. I like that name too.

[@RCAFpolarexpress]

Great name in deed Sir !!!

[@GardenTractorBoy]

It is always good to have your own cameraperson. This is the first time I have seen one of those in action and it seemed to work really well.

[@loggerjohn01]

Hello guys, I wish I did sometimes. It seemed to work well so far. Take care

[@sargentodelaire9864]

Looks like it did a good job 👏 👍 but it seems this weed trimmer doesn't have a projectile guard around the side to prevent getting hit with whatever the trimmer shoots at you. I can see you, the operator is covered with grass debris.

[@RCAFpolarexpress]

Bonsoir John 😉 You can call It ( THE Big J'S BUSH WACK 😉😉👍👍 ) Yes Logan as OUTSTANDING Channel ( Fabbed Fun 👍😉 ) That is amazing How tall your grass is and a lot of dust too 😮😮 That bush wack is doing OUTSTANDINGLY VERY WELL 😉😉👍👍 Outstanding review John and field testing too 👌👌💪💪👍👍😉😉 Yes keep it clean ( air cool engine need to be clean for sure ) use a nylon brush broom !!! I left a comment on his last video and have a safe week John Cheers 🍻🍻

[@loggerjohn01]

Hello, super Dave my friend! Lots of great names are in my head too. Maybe Weedasurus. I need to find some eyeballs lol. It could be a Big J's product!!!! Thanks for the tips. take care

Tree drop opening scene really nice shot. Nice brush cutter full play & 👍

[@loggerjohn01]

Thanks so much, guys. It works well for sure.

Not sure if you have noticed this yet or not but you talked about the top part of the handlebar not feeling correct or comfortable, it's seems that it's on backwards. It should be flipper around so the pull in bar fit in the inside of the handle. Change the pull handle connection and throttle handle connections and turn it around. I looked at the owners manual and they too have the handle bars showing the way you have yours set. To me that just seems backwards from a standard handlebar setup. I could be wrong for this machine, perhaps it needs more forward/downward pressure from the handlebars being this way. Anyway, thank you for sharing the video.

[@loggerjohn01]

Thanks, I will have to check that out. Thanks for watching.

[@GrampiesWorkshop]

How's she goin'? The new addition did a nice job on the sides of your lane John. The trimmer line is probably not the top of the line for sure eh. I think there is line now that is diamond shaped like you mentioned and it will 'cut' the grass more than just whipping it down. It sure looks like a good machine and I think a good name for it would be "The Dandy Dandelion Destroyer'!!! LOL Thanks for sharing and take care!!!

[@RCAFpolarexpress]

Great name mon ami ( DDD ) lol !!!!

[@loggerjohn01]

Hey Mike, I'm glad you could stop by. The line wasn't the best for sure, but I will try this other line I have, That's a good name lol. Take care

[@huongtoituonglai24]

Great video! Nice sharing!have a wonderful day stay connected my friend. 🏆🏆

[@loggerjohn01]

Thanks a lot.

[@carmob7499]

WOW that works Great !! I wish i had one !!

[@loggerjohn01]

Thanks a lot, I like it so far

[@davessmallenginerevival2847]

Hi John. Looks to work great. The name could be SONIC THE EDGE HOG 🤣 The handle is adjustable forward and back but like you said not higher or lower. I would definitely keep an eye on the plate mount for the handle and wheels, it looks very thin. I get the biggest line I can for mine but like you said that doesn't mean it's the best. Have a great week buddy

[@loggerjohn01]

Hello Dave, I like that name. Still not sure about the handle. That plate kind of worries me, but time will tell. I will definitely try a better line. Take care

[@CountryLivingWithTheHarnishs]

I never had any luck with trimmer string it makes my blood pressure go up LOL your new trimmer seems to work well

[@loggerjohn01]

Thanks, guys, This machine is really easy to load up. My handheld trimmer has a fast-loading head on it that only takes a minute to load up with no tools or taking it apart. Take care

[@stevenbrown5210]

You GOTSUM!!!

[@jillseitz24]

We are thinking about buying one to replace my Craftsmen on that is 15 years old, how are you liking it 😀

[@loggerjohn01]

Hello, I will be doing a review in the near future, but I will tell you a few things. It starts and runs well. It cuts really well too. It came with a Briggs and Stratton engine that says you never have to change the oil. Which is a bunch of baloney! I did change the oil but I must warn you that this engine doesn't have a drain plug, so you either have to tip it over and drain the oil out of the dipstick hole or use one of those suction pumps. This model comes with an offset feature so you can trim closer to fences or whatever. I didn't really need this feature but this model was on sale and was cheaper than the regular model. I wish I would have got the regular model because this one is heavier and wider. There is a lot more flex where the handlebar joins the offset plate and where the wheels join also. This seems to make the machine a little harder to push on even ground. But the thing I hate the most is the cheap switch they put on the handlebars. It looks like something that came out of a high school shop class with flimsy wires that keeps coming off. All in all it's a well-made machine. Stay tuned for my total review coming soon and thanks for watching.

Trimmer mower. I have DR brand, and it works great. It is a great buy

[@dmalloy96]

How did it do on gas that’s the only thing I didn’t hear 👂 you say did you mow all that on one tank have a great week

[@loggerjohn01]

Hey David, It seemed to be ok on gas, I did that whole area on one tank. New engines seem to use more until they wear in. Take care

[@alcopower5710]

How has it been holding up? Have you gotten used to the handle?

[@loggerjohn01]

It's been holding up well, still not used to the handle. Better review coming soon. Thanks for stopping by.

[@tractortalkwithgary1271]

My Dad used to have a DR string trimmer very similar to that. I really liked it. It seemed to be a bit of a pain to change out the string.

[@Zx14rrrrrrrrrrr]

Lay it back on it handle and swap in new line. Goes on pretty simple

[@loggerjohn01]

This one is fine for a line change, pretty straightforward. Thanks for watching

[@adventurerhoades]

That was not just a little tall. That was jungle grass. It did a great job just about looks like a finished mow. Full play 2nd device :)

[@witch5884]

Henrietta....

[@gatorsworld]

That tall grass sure give your new machine a good try......does not look like new any more.....I guess it worked a bit, it’s good for hard to go to places and also spreading dandelions. I think a Seckel mower on your tractor would be a lot faster but to late now.....CHEERS

[@loggerjohn01]

Hey Gator, It seemed to work well, I wouldn't want to do acres with it. Take care

[@MySliceOfHeavenoutdoors]

Yeah man, the walk behind trimmer worked well.

[@ColtonLloyd]

It did a good job then I thought it would.

[@loggerjohn01]

Thanks a lot. Take care

[@mabob59]

can i use a Echo 215511 Pro Maxi-Cut Head on my echo WT-1610T

[@loggerjohn01]

I'm not sure. Your echo dealer should know.

[@Zx14rrrrrrrrrrr]

I'm getting one lol

[@loggerjohn01]

Thanks for tuning in.

[@witch5884]

I can't see why you used the trimmer, riding mower would have been fine. These are made for ditches and tall 3 ft overgrown areas where a tractor can't go.

[@loggerjohn01]

Remind me never to let you use my riding mower!

[@marksparkplug7758]

Working good John, reminds me of a Ladybug. Lol.

[@loggerjohn01]

Hey Mark, nice to hear from you. It kind of does look like one lol.
