  • In this video we show you how to remove a ceased up head, remove or re-install a guard, and re-string an Echo SRM-225. This process is similar across other Echo weed whips, and across different brands as well.

    THanks so much! I watched all the videos of ECHOSRM-225 head removal and mine just kept unfeeding the line when I locked it and turned counter-clockwise. No one ever mentioned to take off the spool and try that way. With a little effort it came right off. Mine is over 10 years old. Thanks again!!

    Thank you! You solved my problem. Somehow I had threaded the string and every tap the string was going IN not out. Watched you video. Popped off the cap, removed the string and re-strung it. Easy for Pros like you, but frustrating for homeowners (and I didn't want to start using a screwdriver in the wrong place and destroying my $300 trimmer). Thanks again!!!

    Thank you sir, you are the Dean of You Tube University. Saved me a lot of time and head scratching after I purchased a replacement head with no instructions. Your video was precise and easily understood. Hope you are getting a case of beer from Echo every Christmas for your tutorials.

    Thank You. Some mongo head 20 something decided to ultra tighten mine. Only by taking it apart and your trick @ 1:08 allowed me (58 y/o) to remove the head for adapting a brush cutter. TY again.

    Oh my gosh! I cannot say thank you enough for posting this video. Had string stuck in unit. Thought we was going to have to take this in to get a replacement head. Husband worked on the machine to get the string out with no success. Found this for him and between the two of us we now have it working again. Thank you!!!

    Thank you. This was very helpful!! The head on mine randomly fell off and that metal piece in the center came with it.
    I didn't know how to put it back together or how to rewind with string but now its fixed!!!

    it took me @1hr to do what u did in 3 min explaining!... lol.. but it helped. also does it matter what side up or down for the string feeder?... when I turned it over the string feed right away so I guess it does... GOOD VIDEO

    • @knktreeservices7847

    . A decent video but did'nt answer my question. None of the videos I've watched have showed me what I was trying to find out. On the spool there is a "R" on one side with an arrow and a "L" on the opposite side' I just want t know if the R or the L should face out. Several years ago the videos available always showed this detail. Now I don't see it mentioned on any of the available vids.

    Just what I was looking for that Allen wrech is that just to hold the head so you can tighten with the screwdriver thanks again

    • @knktreeservices7847
      @knktreeservices7847  2 роки тому

      Hey Todd! Yes, the allen wrench basically just locks the lower part of the head so that you can twist it off.

    I don't like this head because when I bump it, the string doesn't come out. Is their an alternative head replacement that fits because it tightens ccw which is not the norm.

    @tb2324 3 роки тому +1

    The spindle inside mine can be placed in either direction. One side is stamped R and other L. If you are right handed (right hand on trigger) does the inner portion the string is wrapped around go back with R facing out or in?

    • @knktreeservices7847
      @knktreeservices7847  2 роки тому

      I believe the R should face out. But that is a great question!

    Thanks for this. The head design on this weed eater is garbage. The space between the shadt and the head allows grass to accumulate which .use be removed occasionally as you cut higher grass.
