[@RJLmachinery]

Yeh i feel that 😅. Its always a toss up between speed/efficiency and felling knackered, if i choose to use this trimmer over others.

Hi, great video. I've got the HS87R. If I'm ever to renew the blades, can I fit "T" blades for finer finish?

[@RJLmachinery]

I think the T blades will fit, but the gear ratio is different between the models, T has a faster stroke rate, so not sure how well the finer blades would cut going slower on an R model 🤷‍♂, cheers.
