Thanks I was surprised to not see a grease plug on the side like every other trimmer, Stihl is slipping.

Thanks for the tip. Here’s another tip, remove the guard and put it way, second tip, but an Echo Speed Feed 400 head on and you’re golden. 👍

I personally don't really like to remove guards. It burns them up over time. 1 extra inch of string than recommended is equivalent to about 20 extra degrees on the engine. On the 4 mix engines it causes the cam lobe to melt. And on the 2 strokes ive seen it just slowly kill them over time. Wouldn't believe how much money it'll cost over a cheap plastic guard.

Does this get greese into the gearbox ring and pinion gear? Or does it just grease the drive shaft, gear box square connecting point hole? Does that hole give you access to the gear box?

I don't think it does. I looked at mine and it seems that it is sealed and the grease cannot get into the gear head properly. I dn what to do. Maybe drilling a hole in the gear head and fitting a greaser head...
