**Always follow the instructions in your repair manual when doing repair or maintenance work on Outdoor Power Equipment. Manuals can be found at the manufacturers website.** In this video I install Stihl .105 inch Premium Round Trimmer Line in a Echo SRM-230 Trimmer. I really like the .105 inch round trimmer line because it doesn't break as often as the smaller line, and I have found that the shaped line doesn't cut any better than the round line. When I say "shaped line" I mean some line is shaped like a star or a pentagon or other shapes. The manufacturer's claim the different shapes improve cutting performance, but I don't see any difference, and when the manufacturer measure's the diameter of the line, its at the farthest points, so bulk of a star shaped line is actually smaller than the advertised diameter. Thanks for watching!
