My old pappy told me in the 60's.."Buy cheap; pay twice"...It's served me well every time I did it over the next half century remembering it too late..:)
-
One of the rare times somebody would ever say "I'm glad the blades flew off"
-
I would have painted the blades and bolts bright orange.... So they're easier to find next time
-
I think this was a shining example of how you can save money on buying cheaper machines and fix minor problems yourself. It also means that I get a great video to watch on Saturday night. :) Self-sufficient at its best.

It’s the “Chicago Electric” of brush cutters.
-
Matt, ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS......PRE-DELIVERY INSPECTION on any machine or equipment new or used. I can't stress to you or anyone else how important that step in ownership is. Even borrowing or hiring anything that you don't know the history of. Best regards from Sydney Australia.

With that central nut, I would have added washer(s) behind it so the cotter pin went where it was supposed to, between the gaps in the castellations
-
It’s not cheap equipment, it’s just a DIY kit with half the work done 😂
-
I would have added 1 or 2 more washers so when the key is put in it is in the slots of the nut problem solved
-
I've got a couple chinese ATVs and the first thing you do when you get them new is to go through every nut and bolt and tighten them. At least 20% of them are loose. For some critical bolts, I replace them with 8.8 bolts as the ones they come with are almost pot metal lol.

Thank you for showing how to make what could be a throwaway piece of equipment into something that you can use. I would love to see a comparison of this cutter versus a higher quality one. You have earned a thumbs up and a new subscriber. I look forward to seeing more content like this.

I'm a little late to the game here, but my experience says attachments are always shipped dry. Partly because it adds to the shipping weight, but it's also a shipping hazard. If you buy your equipment from a dealer, the pre-delivery process includes adding any necessary lubricants.
-
Thanks for posting this video. I purchased one just like this, and thanks to you i inspected it before using, found it to have the exact problems as you did! You saved me a ton of down time!
-
Haha "Blades fly off" That's great!
-
Yes sir. Proud of you showing professional attitude and getting on top of it all. Just beef up everything now, I know you will after your first job with it.
-
I enjoy watching you do what I did 40 years in a row
-
This is why they auction them, no warranty, no responsibility, take the money and run. They are too low a quality to sell retail.

Ole gear oil bottle sounds like someone in the restroom after Taco Bell
-
Between the brush cutter and the crane truck it's been a rough couple weeks!
-
You take a practical approach to everything. Really enjoy your videos!
