I have the same brushcutter (with guard on the end) and you probably needs to adjust the mixture. It looks quite rich running and I guess you kill it by too much fuel. If the fuel doesn't get to the carb, it's because the pump diaphragm is getting hard. It's a very good piece of equipment, I'm the third owner and I have it for 10 years and it gets quite a workout in my garden. Still going strong ! Had to replace the fuel line, grommet,vent and the rubber pump given the previous owner never did any maintenance and used poor and old fuel. You will need to grease the pignon on the end of the shaft at regular intervals and if you care well for this machine, it has still some life remaining. If required, I believe I have a workshop manual for the carb and also some IPL's and documents for the brushcutter. Replacement carbs are available but they are not so fuel efficient as the original one.
Daniel, sometimes with a two stroke engine if you're blowing smoke your gas oil mixture could be off. Just a thought. Keep up the good work. My wife and I enjoy your videos.
