![]() I know RM/Husky are the same in many models, but there are usually enough differences to warrant using the same engines etc, but offering the changes in comfort features. The 802 is still a Shin machine and a dang great one!). I took it apart and found that the piston and cylinder both look perfect. If it starts, it only runs for a few seconds and dies. Needless to say, it is nearly impossible to start. What I don't like is when one manu buys out another, then starts offering the equipment from the company they bought out in that manu's colors, yet it is the same dang thing as what they already sell in their own colors ala Echo/Shin (for the majority of the lines. Im working on a RedMax string trimmer with compression of only 70psi. For me the 89 burns better and cleaner and my back pack (EB7001) eats up the 87 octane. Here’s a quick look at which string trimmers are in this best weedeater head-to-head comparison. I have not noticed a huge difference in the 2 cycle, but I can tell when I use 87, 89 or 93 octane gas. I think some brands being bought by other manu's do get hurt, but that is not my experience with RM equipment so far. I have used the Stihl mix, Red Max mix and yes even the Shindawa mix in my Red Max back pack and trimmer. The noise rating of the EGO LB6504, which is 65 dB. However, excluding the batteries, the weight of the Stihl BGA 57, which is 5.1 lbs, slightly exceeds the 4.77 lbs of the EGO LB6504. ![]() With its battery, the EGO LB6504 is heavier than the Stihl BGA 57. I might feel that way about certain equipment at times myself due to good luck etc, but that simply doesn't make it a fact, but only my experience during that period of time. Thus, for the comparison to make sense, we must consider the bare tool weight of the LB6504. ![]() I highly recommend it to anyone needing or wanting a new trimmer.Īs far as older RM vs newer.some guys had good luck with equipment bought during a certain time period and naturally assume that was the best stuff made. You can get a lemon from any manu, and I just happened to get one. This one has been flawless and is my all time favorite trimmer. I won't go back over all that here again, but after a year, I took it back, the dealer gave me a choice of anything in the same price range and I decided to try another 260 just because it was what I really wanted in the first place due to power and balance etc. ![]() I have one and it's an excellent all-around trimmer.Like I have posted numerous times, my first RM 260S was a lemon from the jump. The ones with the new upgraded driveshaft have the black line installed from the factory and the old ones had the old orange Crossfire line installed, that's how you tell the difference.Īlso you would be doing yourself a disservice if you did not check out the Stihl FS94R. And if you decide to go that route, make sure you get one that's got the black trimmer string on the head. I have had a husqvarna trimmer for a little over a year and so far it runs like a champ. regardless of size though which are easier, cheaper to fix and have cheaper maintenance products (i.e. In my opinion it's only good for those that like to run really long string without a guard. Stihl's seem to have slightly larger engines but shorter warranty's. If you do use a guard you would be turning way too many RPMs with the torque head. The 525LS will turn 9400 RPM with 8" of line. I don't use a guard and I like the trimmer line (.095) to be around 8" or so. If you're not running a guard and you don't run your string 10 inches or more out the head, I would get the non torque version. I don't have any experience with the Redmax trimmer but I do have the Husky 525LS.
