If IâÂÂm slower and careful to âÂÂUsing The Tip EasyâÂÂ, I can trim 800+ ft on one 20â precut string. Thanks! This WD-40 (which I had heard of) should work for the heaviest line I can find, pre-cut 20â sections, force them out the eyes on each sides, this leaves 8â of line on each sides. Anyway, if you're having frequent melts+break-offs and your line looks a little powdery, oil it up! You'll be whacking along at full throttle in no time! I bet the extra WD-40 I sprayed onto the reel is slinging off at high rpm and keeping the eye/outer layers of string oiled. I sprayed a second or two worth into the eye and onto the reel of string and didn't have any more line breaks!! The line toughed it out through the whole yard (aside from normal wear ofc)! I noticed the line was kind of powdery looking when I wound it this time so maybe the manufacturer had put too much talc or something on there and it was generating friction at the eye. Lower throttle bought me an extra minute or two between breaks but the solution for me was the WD-40. After 10+ line breaks in maybe 20 feet (the exposed line melts at the eye and flies away), I came inside and searched for a solution. Needs a liberal application of agent orange tbh. It's like 5-foot high Johnson grass back there. I just came in from (attempting) a weed-whacking job around my neighbors unmowed yard. I know this is a bit of a necro-post but it's high on google search results so I figured i'd throw my solution in anyway.
