Weedeater SST25 Trimmer Head Spins when Idle
From: Paul F.
Subject: Weedeater SST25
Hi, I had called a weed eater rep about the SST25 I had just bought and was told that the trimmer head should stop when machine was throttled down. Mine didn’t do this so I brought it back and got a new machine but the head still spins quite fast at idle. Is this normal? Paul
Answer:
Hi Paul,
it’s not normal, but you can fix it by adjusting the carburetor. Since the carburetor controls the spinning speed of trimmer while idle, screwing/unscrewing a tiny screw on it will change the weedeater’s speed. Carburetor is usually located near the air filter or muffler.
