pulling away (think I got that right) to change positions and relieve muscle tension.įor clearing stones out of the lawn it is AWESOME!!! I only use it for this purpose every spring and it reduces work time by 75%. I occassionally operate it upside down so that it is pulling towards you vs. Not because of weight, but because of the angles involved and other push/pull factors (hard to describe). Being end heavy and somewhat clunky, it DOES seem to strain the lower back muscles. The sweep head is quite heavy and impossible to get a balance between it and engine. But, I have never used the 2 handle model. The weight of pushed stones would stop you before lack of power from the engine.įrom my experience using this single straight shaft model, I think the 2 handle model would be difficult to use. The gearhead is geared incredibly low and does NOT require much power/engine size to operate. I have the "gearhead" type rubber power sweep that requires a wrench to remove the entire weed trimmer gear head, and install the power sweep gear head and drums. Otherwise, the Kombi has more power options, and more accessories too (such as a pole saw and a blower).Īt my workplace, I have a smaller, older FS 85 trimmer. If you're doing something that requires down-force on the attachment (roto-tilling especially), the Yard Boss wins hands down. The Yard Boss puts the motor's weight on the attachment, while the Kombi puts the weight behind your hands. OTOH, if you have a desire for a small sized roto-tiller, the Yard Boss is much better at this than the Kombi. You can actually buy the power sweep directly on a stick engine, and save a few bucks, but if you use a string trimmer, or any of the other attachments they make for the Kombi, that's the better choice (I own about half the available Kombi attachments, and could give you tips on most of them). I have the power sweep attachment, but have not used it yet (only got it a couple of months ago). I've owned two Yard Boss machines over the years, and currently own two Kombi units.
