I am done with 2 cycle because they are often difficult to start and the gas oil mix chore is a pain in the a$$.
"STRAIGHT SHAFT AND FIXED LINE HEAD: Straight shaft design makes it easier to trim around bushes and hard to reach places. Fixed-line head is designed for 0.95" CMX tri-color round line."
Where is the Fixed Line Head? Item supplied with the Bump head which fouled on its first use. Add Insult to injury - Customer service for this item, apparently Craftsman now sold and serviced by MTD - is not available on weekends.
Inquiry on Amazon points customer to MTD site. MTD Site Support only available Mon to Fri. So effectively, no customer support or answers about this product.
So - did some research about Fixed Line Heads for this trimmer. Craftsman has a 71-85740 which according to review does not fit models Made in Mexico. Guess what - my WS405 Model CMXGTAMD30SA is made in Mexico.
This Model number on the unit produces the following result on the CRAFTSMAN website.
CMXGTAMD30SA' WAS DEVELOPED AS PART OF A PARTNERSHIP.
Please use your CRAFTSMAN model number on our partner's site for all your parts & service needs.
Input the model on the MTD (Partner) website number and poof - nothing.
Looks like I'll be returning this item very soon. Not worth the trouble or hassle. Pity because the trommer works OK and starts easy enough.
