    We call Scott "one grit". :p

    And a Man-u-who sounds like a Dr. Seuss character. :laugh:

    The Man-u-who
    Is just like you.
    He doesn't like to wipe his poo
    With one grit or his shoe.

    I just got an Echo SRM 225 with the fancy string head too. I took your route and figured it was somewhat similar to any other trimmer head, WRONG! Lol!

    2 minutes of the manual and it was way easier.

    I never liked Echo and didn't know they made Shindaiwa stuff. I was disappointed when it came (ordered off the web) but pleased when I used it then mad when I restrung it. I'm starting to like it again now that it should be easier to string.

    The trimmer and chainsaw I've got are both awesome! Start in less than 2-3 pulls every time.

    I've got friends who mow for a living and use Echo blowers and trimmers, they love them as well. I like the way mine cranks and the power. All I was displeased with was the head but that's my own fault for not reading about it :D

    Sweet Sally is dumping her rain on us today. My coworker (62) decides its a good day to check off the bucket list “ride the chopper to work in a hurricane”.

    Customer just came and picked this up, I ask what it's going on. He said "a twin turbo Chevrolet Caprice with an LS7 in it, it'll have a little over 1,000 HP" :eek:

    I think a ride after it's installed is a must.
