also good advise when cleaning a gun.

Disengage safety, look down the barrel and pull the trigger to make sure the chabler is empty.

If it is continue with cleaning.  

Aim it at a lefty and see what happens

More guessing from the cornered Aussie, Dolf.............🤭

Hedge trimmers can be used too on tall grass. They cut well.

 

 

Or if you are old school

Only stupid people, like you, take the safety guards off. The guards are there for a specific reason and it is called SAFETY.

 

The rest of your post is simply BS.

 

Actually, in places like the US it is more correctly called product LIABILITY🤔

Every product has warnings to prevent idiots suing companies. That is all it is. Only small rocks fly head height and the only danger area is your eyes so wear safety glasses. A small rock hitting your cheek does no damage. 

 

Even a microwave has warnings in the paperwork for the idiots.

You carry on Dolf, with your own "advice", I think the rest of us will use common sense instead......

Rocks fly off in the direction of the spinning head which is away from you if you stand in the right position.

Very interesting. Can you demonstrate how that works with a blade or line spinning 360 degrees at high RPM 1-2 meters from your legs?

 

I think you should do a video where you drop the spinning head down into some dirt and gravel and avoid getting hit with flying gravel. And wear flip flops and shorts since you're so confident.

I don't use blades. Dropping the machine into gravel will damage the head so that's a stupid thing to say.

 

Brushcutters are designed for grass and weeds. You should not use them on gravel. If you are hitting weeds on rocks keep the head flat some 2 inches above the rocks.

 

It is just common sense.

I wear boots and shorts. My legs are tough and I'm not a girly man. No need for trousers.

I bought one of these as my Mrs wanted a Brazilian. It knackered it!   5555

Clearly you have no real world experience with these machines, well maybe on a golf course fairway. Good luck working on rural land or farm on uneven ground if you think you can avoid rocks.

 

You're like talking to a 13 year old virgin boy who is arguing that jacking off is better than the real deal.

Thanks for confirming you have no idea.

 

Your childish response proves it.

Rocks come in different shapes and sizes. Big rocks should be cleared if possible. If not becareful working close so not to damage the head. Medium sized rocks don't fly up as they are too heavy but could damage the head if sweeping low.

 

Only small rocks that fly up which can only harm you if hits the eye. That is why you wear safety glasses.

 

In Thailand I would check for broken glass first and clear it if there. Lots of drunks chuck out bottles.

 

Otherwise the main factors are a powerful machine, good spinning head, good cord and good technique. Weak machines struggle in tall grass. 35cc breezes through compared to 25cc.

I will take some photos and send to you. Why don't you do the same if you have any real world experience which I doubt based on your comments.

Nothing to do with "like", if you act like a teenager here, then expect to be treated like one.

Do you have a thing about 5 year old's.........

I keep the blade as is, dont grind and it works. Only the lock nut of the machine turns loose at times.

Then I have to re tighten again. Im amazed there is no blocking pin in it, which prevent that. Though it is a Makita.

Im aware it could cut easier when sharpened, but works fine for me.

 

Not only rocks can fly away. Last year I had a Malaysian pit viper flying in the air.

The mower hit it and the snake was flying a meter high through the air! After it landed, it did one attack towards me and then sat down.

So could study it and found out it was pit viper.(checked internet) Amazing it happend and I hope, never to encounter this again.

So be aware, not only rocks are flying.

The snake? No blood but complete groggy, put it on a rake and moved it. Scarry situation but could do it.

No I didnt check if bones were broken or so.

Nonsense. All the experienced cutters take the guard off. Guards are for novices. Cord will cut image D. Ive cut thicker stuff than that. Blades are very overrated. 

You are an idiot if you think you can cut that stuff with plastic. The OP still does not have the right blade to cut that stuff, he needs one similar to a circular saw and even then it is difficult. That advice from years of experience

As to getting rid of that type, it is like cane, not grass when it grows, all of the roots need to be dug out and there will still be some left that sprout again.
