C 26-2 Trimmer head

[mikehouse]

Hi all.Just wanted to talk about the C26-2 head that came on my FS 56 trimmer.These heads are awesome!!! Especially for beginners.Just thread your line thru to a good length on both ends,then push the head in and twist.That simple.Wish i had this on my FS 70.When this wears out i will definitely be getting another.Any comments?

Yeah, they look like a good idea. Hopefully they will hold up after a few years of use, it would be interesting to hear about folk's opinions.

Looks like the stihl version of an Echo speed feed. I have a Autocut 25-2 head and hate it. I use a speed feed head. Looks like the 26-2 is a better head

I put an Autocut C26-2 on my FS-91r and it's a breeze to use. I put about 2 arms length of .095" Husky Titanium Pro on it and have never had any feeding issues.
I've also used .105" Xp Pro line with no problems.

I'm all about that husky titanium.
