Brush cutter (Part 2)

Featured Replies

I wanted to post this in a previous topic I opened a year or two ago about brush cutters, but, unfortunately, it has been archived and closed to further comment, so, here's a new thread. 

 

Overall, I'm very satisfied with my Honda, 4 stroke brush cutter. However, the nut (see photo 1) which holds the cutter/trimmer in place has become worn and can only be opened with a vice grip. I've checked on lazada, but to no avail. Any tips on where I can order one online and what's the correct name for it? 

 

Any tips much appreciated.

It is a left hand thread and I usually buy mine at either the tractor shop in the big village 6km away, or at the guy who sells things like that up in Kamphang Phet 60 km away.

 

Depending on where you live there will be a place or two that sells the brush cutter and they will carry spares like that, and if they don't they can point you at another place who will have it or you can order it.

 

My Honda 4 stroke is about 8 or 9 years old and very reliable. About 4 years ago the engine stopped so I took it to the local Somchai fixit shop who do most of the odd jobs for me and he had to send it away for repair and that cost about 3,xxx baht for a complete rebuild. A few months later I could have bought a replacement engine for a bit over 4k thb.

 

I use mine perhaps an houir a day 6 days a week. After I finish for the day I wash the Honda down, clean and sharpen the blade or replace the nylon cords. Every Friday I check and top up the engine oil and grease the gearbox head.

You can buy grease at the Kuchinari tractor shop (he's probably got nuts as well or can order them) or the big car -care garage just down a bit. They have a shop that sells oils grease etc.

 I usually buy the grease at the tractor spares shop.  It is called LT3 in a brown 1kg tub. I call it the tractor spares shop which it is, but they also do power tools, batteries, oil, nuts bolts and washers of many sizes, generators, water pumps and not always genuine Honda spare parts. But they fit and if I have a problem I can always return the item.

 

I have got a folder wih the spare part numbers and drawings for the Honda but last time I tried to post it to Crossy on TVF it wouldn't accept the folder but only one page at a time.

I had lost mine.

Just went to district town at one of the shops that sell brush cutters.

Hefty 50 Baht :smile:

 

To the OP: do you live near Korat city or where?

Maybe someone can point you to a specific location.

 

Online might become a bit difficult to find.

Yeah, I live 65km outside Korat City, in a small place called Nong Bun Mak, in the direction of Buriram, but I'm in Korat City often. 

Sounds like I'm not going to have too many problems finding parts or grease. ????

This seems to be a source:

M10? On Lazada, minimum order 5 pieces:

The title in Thai is "descriptive" (left twist nut for fixing mover head).
