      How to remove complete head from curved shaft on 27cc gas trimmer so a brush head can be attached
      ByJun 20, 2021
      1 Answer | 
      Answer This Question

      Hello Manes. You cannot remove just the cutting head. You need to purchase a brushcutter attachment in order to have a brush head. The BC720 TrimmerPlus Add-On Brushcutter is part number 41AJBC-C902. This attachment can be purchased on the Cub Cadet website. Thank you for your question.

        What it is meant by 125 hour rated engine? Who manufacture this engine and carb? Will parts be available after market?

        Answer This Question

        In the previous response by Dewalt, Dewalt totally lied about them making the motor on this. Every bit of this was manufactured by MTD. I have had two support issues in a month and Dewalt will not handle the issue, They will forward you to MTD, which is a mess. I have spent well over two hours getting transferred around.

          Hello jay. The 125 hour rating is the life expectancy of the engine. The engine is manufactured by DeWalt. Thank you for your question.

            Poor head design
            Bought 4 Sep 2022 and was deciding between this Dewalt trimmer or a the straight shaft Echo, I should have gone with the echo trimmer. Used the Dewalt trimmer for 20 minutes max and the trimmer head fell off from the shaft, after reading some of the reviews this seems to be a common problem. One positive is the 27cc motor has the power needed, but the plastic head design should be relooked at.

              No Dewalt Support Response
              Disappointed, purchased this time last year (including the hedge trimmer and edger). It’s still horrible to start and recently the red plastic A-B start leaver (choke) on the carburetor broke off, making it impossible to start now. Reached out to Dewalt Support 3-4 times now and still no response on getting a replacement part.

                Wonderful Tool!
                [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am surprised how easy this is to use, and have been busy since this arrived. It was in a secure box, so got here safely, then I quickly put 2 pieces together after removing security packaging. Not too heavy for me, especially when using strap that is included. Has a string guard too, that went on easily and a tank of fuel to get started too. I snapped a picture of it before I started, and didn't think to take a pic of my work afterwards unfortunately. I made good piles all around and it was fun. This trimmer makes noise, which might be bothersome, so I recommend using ear muffs or some ear plugs like I did since my ears are sensitive. I understand there are other attachments available that would allow me to trim hedges, and though I'm not sure if I could handle it, I'm going to look into it since I've got some scrubs that have gotten too tall in front of the house windows this summer. ***Could not download other pic in time allowed.

                  Very versatile and powerful trimmer
                  [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This trimmer is awesome. Love that you can get the different attachments and turn it into a pole saw. It is a bit loud, but it's super powerful. I also love that you can turn the head sideways and use it as a trimmer for the sidewalk and driveway. Easy to take apart, and it came with a carrying strap, which I was surprised about. Great trimmer!

                    Need size
                    Decent so far but I need to know the size of the eyelet on the head for replacement. I’ve tried looking for replacement so but can’t find any on here. All I need is the size so i replace it.

                      I dare you to post this
                      This trimmer has a design error. On Dewalts own website there are one star reviews because it has a bad bearing on the lower arm that falls out causing the trimmer head to fall off during use. This happened to me almost striking my leg. Do not buy this particular product, it has a design flaw. Don’t trust me go to the product description on Dewalts website

                        Broke on me on the first use, twice
                        I went to use it for the first time, the head exploded, parts went all over my yard. I took it back, they sent me a brand new one and it did the exact same thing because of home depot and the whole process i have not successfully weed whacked my yard at all this summer.

                          String Trimmer Head
                          String trimmer head kept falling apart. I was able to put it back together a few times but the final time the spring on the inside fell out and I could not find it. Now all the line has no resistance and will all fly out when in use. Had it for less than a year.
