How to replace a Stihl trimmer shaft

[@moneymakingmikeg.9555]

Heck yeah Scotty!! It took me a long time to get the courage but, I did this on my curved shift FC56. It was $275 US to fix & I got the shaft for $86 US shipped to my house. Hardest part was getting edger head off. I gifted it to younger kid in my area. Great video. I hope it inspires some ppl. to attempt repairs themselves. Hoping all is well Bud, Dirty Jersey out!! #broinlawns

Th aka Mike. I am terrible at repairing equipment. I usually end up taking it in to the the shop but for the price they wanted It was cheaper to buy one. Hope that kid gets good use of it.

Nice job. Does it vibrate so much that your hands get numb?

[@DelpFan2008]

Sitting up a year and a half -3 pulls and it starts!! That’s a Stihl!

[@RedRockMaintenance]

Lol yea. Gotta love stihl

Thanks for this video I have 2 trimmers that broke from cheap trimmer racks I’m going to fix them now 👍

Good day did the new tube came with the inner bushings pre installed?

[@RedRockMaintenance]

I believed it did.

[@jeffdenney4148]

What’s the part number on that shaft I need one just like it and where did you get it and this was a good how to video thanks

[@RedRockMaintenance]

I’m not sure the part number. I should have put it in the description. Go to your dealer and they can find it for you. Glad the video helped you

[@HOLCS2021]

You didn't leave a link to where you purchased the shaft/pole?

[@RedRockMaintenance]

I got it from my Stihl dealer where I live.

[@HOLCS2021]

Nice little tutorial Scotty

[@RedRockMaintenance]

Thanks. I just wing it as I have no clue how to do that stuff. It was a lot easier than expected.

[@tonynelson7]

Should have greased that shaft?

[@RedRockMaintenance]

Yes I should have. I didn't realize I should have done that

[@michaelenglish3348]

@tonynelson what kinda grease the Sthil one correct?

[@spicky2966]

[@RedRockMaintenance]

Thanks. I will have to do another video on that.
