[@BudgetLawns]

Thanks buddy. So simple but so easy to make. Appreciate you watching and commenting as always, my friend!

[@cknalawncare]

Can I add something extra? Running the trimmer at full or almost full throttle more often helps keep the exhaust screen clean and doesn't clog things up as much.

[@BudgetLawns]

Absolutely. Great addition. You are so right about that. Thanks so much for watching and chiming in.

[@DadBuiltDIY]

Love it. I like that it's not the typical tips that you hear out there. Great advice!

[@jbragg2493]

I just recently found out that Stihl recommends soaking the string in water. Look on the spool of string, on the sticker it shows a faucet and bucket of water picture.

[@BudgetLawns]

You're right. They sure do. I've never needed to do it, but have always know it's an option. Thanks for watching and commenting. Appreciate ya!

Never new full throttle, when trying to get more string out

[@BudgetLawns]

Got me when I was new to string trimmer. Couldn’t figure out what I’m the world was happening. 🤦‍♂️😂 thanks so much for watching.

[@wesleymic34]

great tip. 👍 . I'm learning 😊

Glad it helps. Happy to help anytime. Appreciate you watching and commenting!

[@MomentumNZMotoVlogs]

My spool of line is kept in a bucket of water with a lid on it. I have a hole drilled in the lid just big enough for the line to go through it. Biggest tip for me was its only the tip of the line that does all the work. don't push the head of the trimmer right up to things. it lets the line work properly and also helps stop it snapping as much

[@BudgetLawns]

Right on. Great feedback and another solid tip. Thanks so much for watching and sharing. 👍👍

[@matthodel946]

I just use an old-school electric hand trimmer from sunjoe. I only do it every three weeks or so, but it looks tight.

[@pennsylvaniaslim]

I use echo red armor high performance gear case grease in my redmax bcz260ts trimmer. remove bolt at the end of trimmer shaft and spin the head when applying grease.

[@BudgetLawns]

Awesome. Great to know. Appreciate ya watching and sharing.

Great tips! Which way to walk, which direction the clippings go..don’t matter to me it always ends up with a rock to the face and me saying ok that won’t happen again then bam..happens again. 😊

Haha. I agree. All that kind of stuff can help but it’s really all about what you feel most comfortable with. Thanks for watching and commenting!

Following up with your past video on your summer scalp.. I’ve been contemplating doing one, do you think I’m too late? Highs in the high 90s here in Alabama! Thanks!

[@BudgetLawns]

I think you've got plenty of time. Just a week and a half after doing it, and mine is almost fully recovered. Appreciate ya watching.

[@Dennis-HailState]

Travis, are you sporting a Yard Mastery cap? Yard Mastery does necessary operate on the Budget Lawn mind set.

[@BudgetLawns]

Allyn sent me a hat for free so I wear a hat that was given to me instead of trashing it and buying some other one. Doesn’t get more budget mind set than that. I don’t use YM products but still respect the work and influence LCN has had in creating this whole lawn community that we are all a part of. Appreciate ya watching.

[@Realitytime2024]

String trimmers caused me stress. I would rather do it by hand. But, I have a small lawn, so it works for me. 😊

That’s what it’s all about. Finding what works best for you and who cares what other people think. Appreciate ya watching!

I enjoy your videos. In fact, the fertilization ones were very helpful. As well, you sparked my interest in the Earthwise 1715-16EW manual reel lawn mower and I went out and purchased one a month ago. My Bermuda lawn is looking good. Question, you indicate the Stihl FS56RC trimmer but when I search Amazon, it only shows the head. Is there a full model number, brand or type that you would recommend. I have a crappy one from years ago and the string is always breaking it is just painful to trim. Any suggestions welcomed. Thanks again.

[@BudgetLawns]

Thank you. Glad they helped. This is the trimmer I've got. I think they've changed the name slightly with the E since I bought mine... www.stihlusa.com/products/trimmers-and-brushcutters/homeowner-trimmers/fs56rce/ It comes with the easy feed head that I just bought for it as well. Appreciate ya.

The only one I have experienced is the 3rd one. I learned quickly my first yard that the head had to be spinning fast and started adding more throttle when bumping the head. I thought it was malfunctioning until it dinged.

Do you think someone will run full throttle to bump their line on the lawn and get cool crop circles? Might could 😂😂😂

I use my string trimmer for everything the mower can't get to. After getting pelted by many times by debris on my legs and face, I figured out how to walk it. Oh, careful cutting poison this that and the third. I'm a few days, you'll be itchy as hell. Ask me how I know. 😂
